The past few days, I have been on a mission to hang artwork in my apartment. One caveat: I can't spend any money on new artwork, so I'm stuck having to utilize whatever I can find around my apartment. It is amazing how a few pieces on the wall can turn a cold apartment into a cozy home. The more pieces I hang, the more I feel I am finally getting a better idea of my true style. In all of my other apartments, I rarely ever hung artwork. I would never be satisfied with cheap pieces from homegoods stores, so I would inevitably end up going without.

Day 1: Feeling Creative
Today, I completed something I've wanted to do for over a year: repaint this old mirror. It used to be an antique gold color and while I loved its shape, I absolutely hated the color. My style is slightly modern, mostly comfortable, with a hint of the unexpected. Or at least that's what I think it is :) I decided to use a "stone" color, hoping to ultimately get a wrought iron-like look. I was quite impressed with the final outcome. I plan on placing the mirror on the wall behind my front door.
