Crib Style.

For those near and far who haven't been able to make a pit stop to mi casa en New Orleans, I decided to throw up a few pix of the place I call home. Call it a showcase, a work in progress, whatever. I admit that much of the house is a mishmash of antique finds, standard utilitarian pieces and a marriage of old meets new. I've been hesitant to pick up a lot of stuff, limiting the bulk of my stuff to what can fit in an old U-haul van. After migrating place to place, living out of dorm rooms and tiny apartments with living spaces converted into bedrooms (to save some cha-ching), it's really kickass to have rooms other than the one I sleep in to roam into. Chillax. Kick up my feet with a glass of cab sav, if I so feel like it. Feels like I'm living the good life, ya know? the living room

foyer/dining area

kitschy kitchen

my room with the buddha screen i found at world market.

a few of the roses eddrin got me for our anniversary; dried.

the desk and the dresser, freshly painted, bought for a measly $45 combined.

the stack of books on my nightstand. i'll get thru 'em. eventually.

a silk nightie i bought at a vintage flea market. i thought it was too prettyful.

our longgggggg ass hallway. makes the apt. feel like a mansion.

shanana's boudoir.

Hope you enjoyed the tour!
