apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Very fun! Love it.

I could use about 1/2 of the kitsch in my home but I love all of it in yours. So well displayed and curated.

Awesome! I adore this space.

Beautiful! And I need that chandelier...

Lot of personality in this place. I hate yellow usually, but in your apartment it's beautiful. Lovely collection of lunch boxes :)

Not something I'd want for myself, but it is still pretty darn awesome. I think I might have to stand in the middle of rooms and spin until it turned into swirls of visual cotton candy.

Cool stuff and fun place!

I like how thoroughly everything is done in this apt. Looks ready for a fun party. Do you have a professional interest in
catering, collecting or painting?

last pic, corner with the orange wall and floral wallpaper and clear mason jars and icons... to die for!

This is sooooo cool, I love all the colors!

This is really inspiring! It's definitely an apartment that's after my own heart. Thanks for sharing your colorful world.

Where did you get the pink chandelier from? I need that in my bathroom...

This is so much fun... the type of home I would love to have if I had the courage to go so bold with color and show off my own collections.

Your use of color here is seamless and works to display all your fun collections in a way that makes them a part of the space and interesting to look at.

Not to mention a whole lunch box wall! The Disney characters school bus, which I lovingly carried everyday to kindergarten, will always have a special place in my heart.

it is impossibe to look at this and not smile. i love it. go Pez!

I think we've seen that chandelier before, but within the context of the giddy fun of this place, it makes much more sense and is much more appealing than when seen on a manufacturer's website.

gives me a tooth ache

really fun.........but just can't picture a man feeling comfortable in this home......unless it's PeeWee

This place rocks. I can´t believe how well Jeanie has put it together. In my place, all of these fun objects would look like a giant, mangled, mess, but in her place, there are beautiful vignettes everywhere you turn! Great job!

Did I see you on an episode of "Small Space Big Style"?

How did you get the Pez dispensers to stand up so well? Mine always seem to fall over on each other, domino style.

I'm lovin' SISTER RUBY. I say you keep that and get rid of the rest.

Agreed, ncantine -- I knew I recognized this one the minute I saw the first photo. Definitely from the TLC show...

More is more. This is very cute, but it actually looks a little more like a retail space than a place where someone lives. Still, very exuberant and nicely done.

Love it! It's like a drunken dream in mexico with warhol and hello kitty wrestling.

wow...how fun to live here!

I too am wondering where you found that pink chandelier!

now THIS is what a color contest entry should look like!!!!!!! super groovy! it's raining and gray here in vancouver, and this entry just brought the sun out for me- thankyouthankyouthankyou!!!!!!!!

btw- what ange_lune wrote: hilarious!!

This is definitely the way to pull off a look I'm not especially fond of (sorry). It's neat and organized. It doesn't look like a store. It doesn't look like you just acquire a lot of stuff and don't really know how to arrange it - you definitely spend some time making it work. When you go for it, you go all the way, but you know, you're not just filling in nooks and crannies with creepy plastic crap. It looks well-chosen and decidedly homey in an amusing "I'm me because I don't want to be you" kind of way, and that's awesome.

I love it too, fun, childish, just very creative and awesome! Very very unique.......Contratulations on being so unique and creative.

wow...thank you so much for the amazing and positive feedback! totally sweet!
i am going to try to respond to everyone's queries in one response.
kate (nc): i do not aspire for a career in catering or the arts, the 2 detail photos that have food are from an engagement party i hosted. as for collecting - b/w my love for flea markets and my inability to just own one version of something i adore - i have amassed an absurd collection of objects from the past.
aimi: my pez have always remained standing, i guess they're obedient.
ange_lune: your assessment is brilliant! my friends have already started quoting you.
general:
1) yes, i was on hgtv's small space big style a few years ago. surprisingly, my episode was about color.

2) the pink chandelier was purchased at abc carpet and home in nyc. they have a fantastic array of lighting fixtures.

once again, thank you all for your awesome observations and comments. i love bright colors (obviously) so incorporating them into my living space was never an issue. you should always surround yourself w/ what you love. xxoo.

Then I guess I need to put on my stern face and give my Pez a good talking-to about standing up straight ;-)

This is so much fun! Is it normal that I want to eat the walls of your home? Yum!

I LOVE THIS APARTMENT. IT IS EXCITING AND YOU CAN NOT HELP SMILING WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT. THE COLORS ARE SO CHERRY AND THEY BLEND SO WELL TOGETHER. I WOULD OF NEVER THOUGHT TO PUT ALL THOSE AMAZING COLORS TOGETHER. I LOVE HOW YOU HAVE ALL THOSE FUN THINGS IN ONE PLACE AND IT LOOKS LIKE IT ALL BELONGS TOGETHER. I KNOW I ALRADY SAID IT BUT I REALLY LOVE ALL THE COLORS. YOU DID AN AMAZING JOB WITH YOUR PLACE. I TOO SAW YOUR APARTMENT ON T.V.

I LOVE this!! so much fun and wonderfully done!

Beautiful!! so cheerfull! an inspiration for me, I´m painting my apartment, I´m going from plain white to bold colors...scary.... I love the way you organize everything your apartment must make you really happy!
