And so it begins...the season of change! Today is my last day in my apartment after three years. There's no better way to end a stressful week than with a big move before final exams, right? Ok...that was a little sarcastic.
I experienced ups and downs in this little place, but I am so thankful for the time I spent here. I was really able to grow and learn how to be myself. I studied like a mad woman, shuffled around in my socks when I had a cold, knit my fingers to the bone for my first craft show and watched a lot of Netflix. I can't believe my time here is over! For now, I am back at my parents house as I finish up final exams. I can't wait to see where I end up next! I'm sure that place will be just as important to me.
I will always remember the blog posts and knit projects I dreamed up while sitting on that couch. Most importantly, I will never forget that I finally found myself during the time spent here and how I learned to appreciate the kooky-colorful-knitter that I am.
Thanks little apartment! It was fun!
P.S. - I just wanted to thank you all again for being so supportive during these next few weeks. My mind is running in circles and your kind words really help me slow down and smile...if only for a moment. :)





What an adorable apartment! Love your decorating style!
ReplyDeleteYour apartment is just as cute as you. I'm a big fan of the bright turquoise that pops up all through the images too!
ReplyDeleteSuch an absolutely gorgeous little apartment, I can see how you made many wonderful memories there and I know that you'll make many more when at your parents' house (that's where Jen and I live right now - with her parents) and in your next charming space. <3 Take time and breath, lovely lady!!!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck with your new place lovely!
ReplyDeleteI agree, you and your apartment are lovely! Can I ask where you got your adorable tablecloth??
ReplyDeleteThank you Kaycie! I got it from the sale room at Anthropologie a couple years ago. I was so excited to find a cute, round tablecloth! :)
Deleteyour little apt is adorable but it's great to move sometimes and get a fresh start. hope we get to see what the new place looks like soon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cozy place. I hope that your next place is just a comfy, and that you make a lot of new, wonderful memories in it. The finish line is in sight! Good luck!
ReplyDeletewow your apartment is so nice!
ReplyDeleteAw, your apartment's decor was adorable! :) Hope you find an even better new resting place!

ReplyDeleteAw, what a cute apartment. Definitely sucks that you have to move when you have exam stress though - you can do it! xo
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised you never shared your apartment with us before, it is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI's so perfect and it's so you! Good luck with the move (:
Your apartment could not be any cuter or any more "you". :) I seriously want that Sabrina poster, the tablecloth, that Sinatra record, etc...:)

ReplyDeleteHow bittersweet and such a sweet place. I love how you're documenting this time in your life. It's such an exciting time with great things ahead!
ReplyDeleteThat couch! And those pillows! I want them! Such a cute little space.
ReplyDeleteI always have a hard time leaving every apartment I've ever moved out of. It's such a sad thing. So many memories! But you will create new memories, for sure, and you should probably move to DC because we're pretty cool here and we have SO MANY CUPCAKES! ;)
Thank you so much Amanda!
DeleteOoh cupcakes...DC here I come! ;)
What a cute little space you had! Best of luck to you wherever your next place will be!
ReplyDeleteYes, your apartment is lovely - as are you. Just remember that it was YOU who created this space for yourself and you will again. And again...
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with everything and a lovely weekend!

It’s a very cozy apartment, what a pity! it’s your last day, but you will find another one, maybe better :)
ReplyDeleteI love your apartment! So cozy and cute. :) Very inspiring. I love the crocheted clock by the way. Super cute!
ReplyDeleteYour apartment looks so cozy and cute!
ReplyDeleteI wish you good luck in this new phase :)

Your little apartment is so cute! Sad that you have to leave.
ReplyDeleteThat's such a cute little apartment!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like such a sweet little place! Reminds me of my apartment in college. As long as you have those things that make you smile, wherever you are will always be home :)

Oh good lord! Could your apartment be any cuter? I think not! Darling and oh so stylish! Best of luck with your move! Can't wait to see your new digs! :]
ReplyDeleteWherever did you find that record player? I just went through all my dad's old records but my parents' player is old and heavy and clunky. I'd love to find something like yours. Much luck over the next few weeks. I graduated college in 2007 and will never forget it - so many emotions. I felt like I had just finished a marathon but was really sad to reach the end. No one really talks about how you handle post-college life so give yourself some time to experience all the joy and the sadness.
ReplyDeleteI got the record player from Urban Outfitters!
DeleteThank you so much for the words of encouragement. I really appreciate it. :)
I love your blog! I found it recently, and there is so much prettiness and inspiration here!
ReplyDeleteGood luck moving! For a couple of years there, I was moving during finals week every. single. semester. It's rough, but you're graduating! How awesome is that?! Last time you'll have to deal with this! (Unless grad school is in the cards) :)
That was a very cute apartment! Everyone seems to have said most things I have thought while reading your post and looking at the pictures. I'm betting you've got some wonderful adventure ahead and once you find a new home it will be fun to decorate. That last picture is my favorite. The record player is just awesome and I remember reading your post about making the crochet borders to save the adorable calendar images (which was an amazing idea btw). Keep up the positive thoughts for the move and exams!
ReplyDeleteHere's to great adventures and finding somewhere new to feel at home!
ReplyDeleteThen buy a couch that looks exactly just like that, and put it in your next apartment. Those knitted stuff are pretty cool. Which among those three was the longest to finish?
