You guys, I am still smiling from all of the feedback on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, sweet comments, and just all around love following my
Everygirl Home Tour. I was in a bit of a shock at first when I pulled up
the feature and saw my home in the pages of my one of my favorite websites. Truly an honor to be featured alongside such successful women. Doing something like this and giving you a peek into my apartment is always a bit nerve-racking because I don't know how you will react or if you will like it. I have read almost every single home tour on The Everygirl, and I am always inspired by everyone's home and the wonderful way they decorated it, so I hope you were just as inspired by mine. Yesterday was a bit of a whirlwind. I was sitting in class when the feature went live and lost all hope of listening to lecture. All I wanted to do was respond to comments on social media!
To help answer your questions where I purchased my furniture, decor, and accessories, I put together a resource list with prices of everything, just so you can get an idea of where the $500 was spent. As I was putting this together I noticed the only thing I didn't purchase on sale was the Anthropologie monogram mug and items for DIY projects. What can I say, I like a good bargain! If you see something in the tour that isn't included in this list or if you have any more questions regarding my apartment or interview (or anything else), let me know! I love hearing from you and getting your feedback.
