Live from New York, it’s: my own personal performance of the Nutcracker Ballet 🩰🎄🥹

Never did I ever think we’d have enough space for TWO Christmas trees (even if one of them is this tiny.)
Our previous apartment was a lot smaller (~850 sq ft) and could only fit this tiny tree in a corner of the living room. Now we have enough space for a big(ger) tree, so the kids’ room gets the tiny one. And for a whole month, it makes for the most magical nightlight ✨🥹

Holiday decorating around the quirks that come with living in an old apartment in the city🎄🌆
Featuring: an old radiator cover, window A/C unit, and weather proofing/bug proofing tape. 🤪

I leave our A/Cs in our windows year round (even though we don’t use them this time of year) because 1) it takes too much effort to remove/reinstall them and 2) where am I supposed to store them?! In all the extra closet space I (don’t) have? 🤣

More than 2 years have passed since I took this photo and that baby is now a big girl, but she still calls the birds on the wallpaper of her room “my pigeons” 🥹🐦 and I still love this room the most 🩵

Did you know that for most apartments in NYC, there’s no law preventing landlords from raising the rent *as much as they want*? Literally they could double the rent if they wanted (and sometimes they do 😭). Thankfully our landlord has so far only raised it a little bit each time we renew, but the fear still lingers within me whenever our lease renewal rolls around. We have absolutely ZERO plans to move any time soon, but I’m already dreading having to un-do all the renter friendly updates I’ve done in here when that day does come.🥲

Despite living in a relatively small apartment, I couldn’t find where I stored my Halloween decorations from last year so had to order new ones 🙄 A few bats 🦇 + some black candles 🕯️ + a plastic skull 💀 + spider web 🕸️ draped over the mantle and I’m calling it good over here. ✔️

Hi! 👋🏼 I haven’t shared our home in a little while, mostly because I haven’t been doing much styling or decorating lately! Partly because I’ve just been so *busy* with our 3 kids, and also partly because I’ve been pretty happy with how our home looks & feels, so haven’t felt the need to make any changes. 🖤

But after recently grabbing new book (and meeting her/having her sign my copy!) I was inspired by her style to swap out our more neutral living room rug for a blue rug instead. I then got some new throw pillows with blues and ruffles to bring everything together. Here’s a little peek of my 3 year old in her natural habitat (on the sofa watching TV lol) with the new rug and pillow visible. 💙
