  1. I am happy to hear Israel is still coming around. He sounds like such a good friend to you.I was just wondering about him last night and was going to ask about him myself.

  2. Small place here too Brenda…also looking for a cheap loveseat to save some room…Don't need this long couch anymore…I am short so I can stretch out on a loveseat just fine…also need to let go of a lot of stuff…

  3. Enjoyed this post, Brenda! Have just been wondering if your handyman is still coming by mornings for coffee. Was he able to get all his paperwork ready for his application for citzenship? I remember you were helping him on your computer. He seems so nice and has helped you so much. I hope all is well with him.

    1. Yes, Israel still comes around for coffee. And sometimes lunch too! He's been very busy, but we're working on learning the citizenship questions/answers. The test is pretty long and I'm learning along with him.

  4. Excellent post on living in a small space, Brenda. I thought I had seen small spaces, and then I moved to NYC…small is relative. 🙂

  5. I love it when you feature articles and pictures about small space living. When I see pictures of really large homes, they do not seem so cozy to me. I love my little one bedroom apartment and think I could even be happy in something smaller. Thank you for the great pictures. I especially liked the first one. I am thinking of selling my sofa and getting a loveseat that has a hide a bed in it.

  6. Great examples. I wish I could have a cozy rug. That white chest is so nice. I like the idea to have furniture with legs. Your idea from another post. That's for always bringing us something to think about.

  7. I've always felt love seats were more practical than full size sofas. Rarely do three people sit on a sofa it seems. The first picture has some great design choices, but on a practical level, I can imagine no one would want to sit in those chairs. Just looking at them makes my butt hurt ;).

  8. Good Morning Brenda.
    I have to say I have had the big home and then medium size home and now small living and I love the cozy feel to small living. I utilize every room in my house and do not have rooms that do not get any use like I did in my bigger home. Bigger is better when raising a family but now with just the two of us it is so much easier to have small. More cost efficient and easier to clean. Have a great start to the new week.
    Hugs,

  9. Good Morning Brenda…. We live in a small house & I have a lot of nesting things around. Although, I have said that during this winter I am going to get rid of a lot of the "stuff" that I have sitting around. I'll still nest, but on a smaller scale. I really love the way you have decorated your apartment. I don't know if my comments show up as a no-reply or not? Will you let me know & if so, how do I fix it? Have a wonderful Monday…..

  10. I lived in a small studio at one time in my life when I was single and worked all the time. It was functional and easy. I had just enough to satisfy my 'nesting' instincts and no clutter of stuff I didn't need. Now, I am on the other end of that spectrum and looking to find a new space somewhere in between tiny and big. Easier said than done.

    Hope you have a great week, Brenda. This was a good post. xo Diana
