i really like your office. How has the drawer unit with the printer on holding up? I'm thinking of getting one myself.

Wow, Jen, great space. Love the wonderful wall colors. I wonder if you will stop in and share the gray wall color in your office, and possibly where you got that set of drawers just to the left of your desk? Thanks!

Well done! I hope you share photos of your new place as you transform it.

So vibrant and welcoming!

citizenaugust, the shelf unit is from Ikea. :)

Absolutely love the bright colours. I'm sure you're sad to move out but please do share pictures of your new place, on the basis of these I'd love to see what you do next.

nice bold paint colors! what green is that?

I think it would be difficult to be grumpy or uninspired in your apartment -- the colors are so cheerful!

I love all of the paint colors! And your bedroom! Paint color, those curtains... it just looks so happy!

What are those paint colors?

Sorry you have to move! Your place is beautiful.

Great use of color with minimal artwork, love it!

You should be so proud of the work you have done!
Love your bedroom and the color on the bathroom wall, especially. Sorry you need to move but I am sure your next place will look as beautiful and like the others, I hope you will share your work in it.
Good luck!

Jen:

Can you share the source of your semi-flush-mount drum pendant? I have been looking for something exactly like this.

This apartment makes me want to give away half of my belongings! Part of what makes it so successful is that Jen has so carefully edited her space. Great job!

LOVE it! Beautiful use of colors! too bad you have to leave it.

Another fan of the paint colors.

Jen, when I was 22 I could have only dreamed for an apartment like yours! How sweet and well curated it is.

I'd also like to chime in a request for your source for the cabinet with drawers under your printer? It reminds me of where we stored the original art illustrations at a former job where I worked for a book publisher.

I'm with citizenaugust... I'd love to know that gray color...

andregirl - it's the Alex drawer unit on casters from Ikea http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/30104322

i love the curtains! where are they from?

Love the colours, especially the orange in your bathroom; how cheery!

Great space. Love the bathroom.

I love that color on the wall in the bathroom...it is gorgeous.

Great job.

Beautiful colours!

your colors are great and mad props on the decluttering/editting (i'm in the middle of that oh-so-fun process)...but be careful not to edit out all of your personality. i'd love to see your space with a few switch-outs of furniture for some more interesting pieces...and maybe it's just a preference, but i'd rather see a slightly more "filled" space that was interesting, than one that was only memorable for how "clean" it was...right now you've got a lot of empty wall goin on! (but maybe that's just b/c you're renting...)

The beautiful yellow-orange in your bathroom is to-die-for -- what shade is it?

Thanks for the great feedback, everyone!

citizenaugust & others, yup, that's the Alex from IKEA. Highly recommended, kind of a pain to put together but it's a great piece.

j i, the pendant lamp is from CB2 and only $50! I shortened the cord quite a bit when I put it up. http://www.cb2.com/family.aspx?c=120&f=4773

HappyGoVintage, the lack of wall hangings is because the plaster-over-brick walls are a nightmare to drill into, haha. Also can't wait to have a more permanent place so I can swap out some of the IKEA! :)

I have the paint cans down in the basement so I'll check those out tonight and report back. Thanks again for the comments, such an honor to be featured on here!

Thanks, Jen! One more question. Did you paint the pendant shade or is it reflecting the (great) color in the room?

Nice! My first ("on my own") 2 apartments were in Columbus, and both were some of the most beautiful I've ever lived in, in Victorian Village area downtown (German Village and near Clintonville have some great places too). There are some great places there, and they don't cost a fortune! Good luck finding a new spot.

I'd love to see a full house tour, but since you've moved out, I look forward to seeing your new place! Great colors!

Great space, could you tell me where you purchased your bed frame?

j i: Nope, I didn't paint the shade. The CB2 pictures make the fabric look warmer than it really is. It's a very neutral bright white and does pick up on any adjacent wall colors. :)

Amberly: Thanks! It's an older frame from IKEA. I bought it probably 5 years ago. The original legs were super ugly so I added raw steel hairpin legs from www.hairpinlegs.com.

Awwww ya, you go girl! Our new place has certainly got some big shoes to fill :)

Love the place! Where is the bathroom shower curtain from??

Absolutely beautiful.

Love the colours

What a beautiful space! Wonderful choice of colors! :)

That is a really lovely apartment. So sad you have to leave, I had the same experience. However, now that your taste is refined your next space will be even more lovely!

I love your fresh and sparse decor combined with the bold wall colors. Great job. I hope we get to see your new place!

Such a gorgeous GORGEOUS apartment. Please share pics of your new place with us. I wouldn't change a thing.

I love the bright, happy colors and the lack of clutter. A great space. Can't wait to see what you do with your next place!

I love all the different colors and how well they work together.

Wow. I am really envious of your decluttering and editing. I just moved into a new Condo and I am overwhelmed with all the art I have collected over the years. I love each piece, but it just seems too all over the map for my small space. I think I will take a cue and lighten the load ( luckily I have a local brother here with a HUGE attic), and just keep a few staple pieces. Nice work!

Okay, here are the paint colors! Happy painting, and thanks again for all of the awesome comments! :)

Bedroom:
Blue - Behr River's Edge (510C)

Living/dining room:
Green - Behr Asparagus (410D)

Bathroom:
Orange - Behr Goldfish (300B)

Studio:
Gray - Ralph Lauren Palais Royale (TH12)

Delagirl: I got the shower curtain at Urban Outfitters late last year. It doesn't look like they stock it anymore... boo! I love it because it reminded me of that birch tree wallpaper that's been popular lately.

I love this! We just moved into a condo about the same size last week, and I've been wondering whether to paint or not. This definitely makes me want to!

What a wonderful home you made for yourself! The new tenant will be very lucky.

ooh I actually have asparagus! I painted it on some canvases in my living room - sadly, I can't paint the walls in my apartment.

Love the colors! Where did you get the curtains in your room?

Beautifully done! If you ever move to New Jersey, I have lots of referrals for you!

Love, love, love. When I was 22, my place was a hot mess--Kudos to you!

Where did you get your shower curtain?

Hi Jen your place is cute. The first thing I noticed is your duvet does not have a cover, its like sleeping on a pillow without a pillow case. You can pick up a white one at IKEA.

LOVE the bathroom. Great job!

Hey Jen,

Great apartment! How big is your computer screen? Where did you get the protective cover?
