10 Things I Love In My Apartment

Bird scissors,

silly plates,
fun knick knacks,

monkeys,

lots and lots of fabric,

toothbrush monsters,

Moo's table setting,
silly coffee spoon holders,

colorful shelves,
and this adorable photo booth picture of my mom and dad when they were my age!

So jeaolus, i cannot paint or modify anything in my rented apartment. I definitely would like to add some color.

Que envidia, yo no puedo pintar o modificar nada en mi apartamento rentado. Definitivamente me gustarĂ­a agregar algo de color.

@Stephanie- I rent as well and don't paint. I use lots and lots of masking tape to hang things up! =)

Loved it

Marissa said...

Katie! My grandma had one of those frogs when I was growing up, but she used it to hold her scrubby sponge at the sink!

Marissa said...

My grandma had one of those coffee spoon holding frogs, but she used it for the scrubby sponge for her dishes!

colormekatie said...

@Marissa- haha! It's the exact same one then! The frog came with a scrubby sponge but I thought It would look funny as a spoon holder so that it looked like it was sticking it's tongue out ;)

Marissa said...

Well it's super cute! and it brought back good memories of my grandma. One of my earliest memories of her was when she borrowed my green crayon to color in a chip on the frog. So thanks for posting it! Love your energy!
