Obsession: Crane's electric fireplace heater...

I love small spaces... my obsession started when I visited a family friend's studio apartment... about 10 years old, I was in awe with how the small space housed every room possible including the kitchen... in my NYC apartment, I have a non-working fireplace and have been thinking of something that would work in the space... I think I may have found it in Crane's electric fireplace heater... small at only 9"W x 17"H x 14"D and in colors that pop, this heater is a work of art and functional... and under $100.- gotta love it!!!

Obsession: Window Shades...

I never hung curtains in any of my apartments, always custom blinds in a chic design... in my current apartment, I never even changed the standard white blinds that were here when I moved in... they were brand new so I hated to toss them but they are boring me after four years... but instead of custom blinds this time around, I am feeling an update to my window style... perhaps with some window shades??? 

 

 

Have a great weekend!!!

How do you do: Mini salt and pepper shakers...

This a special DIY for the small space dweller, for the person who likes small things and a sweet decorative touch for any celebration... 

The next time you have an opportunity to swipe ... oops, I mean come across... some little jam jars, make them your own... 

With a hammer and some thin nails, pound some holes into the lids... pour in your salt or pepper, and it's that easy... have a wonderful weekend!!!
