- What I Love About My Small Home:
- I love my separate eat-in kitchen! Of course, I love cooking, so it means a lot to me because the smell will not go to my sleeping/living area. Also, I have a plenty of storage in my place. I have a built in dresser, two closets, and a ton of shelves and cabinets in the kitchen.
- Biggest Challenge of Living in a Small Space
- I don't have a separate bedroom and living room. I used to use a room divider to separate the area, but I felt the room getting smaller. Since I cannot separate the room, I just think I should enjoy the one open room that I have. I decided to decorate my room as a big master bedroom! This is how I enjoy playing around with my place. It is very important to make my room livable and functional.

Yay, Virginia! Love the chevron curtains. Your place is very bright and cheery.
Such a happy room!
Happy Thursday.

where did you get those kitchen stools?!?
I do like the layout though and the pictures show it well. Where's the bathroom?
I like your bedcover/comforter/spread. Nice and cheery. That four corner pillow is cool too; vintage or did you make?
I spot Urban Outfitter stuff. :) Right? Nice happy and bright colors and patterns.
And to AT: It would be really really nice if you add like you did last year a link to the next entry instead of making us go back to the main page to click on the other entries. Kind of annoying. Just saying..
O_o
Very cute & feminine.
Nicely done - and the wood trim on the kitchen cabinets - the look is coming back! I hate to see when folks rip it out. Congratulations on great space.
i have that bedding from anthro! looks better in your room than mine!
Go Charlottesville! I went to UVA. :) Love your cozy kitchen and all of your colors.
Thanks for every comment:) I am so excited my place was selected!!! I will try my best to answer questions.
@jsarabia The dining set is a Craigslist find. It was originally from Ikea.
@LyonStill I bought quilted pillowcases from Thailand. They are unique and very CHEAP :) Some pillows I bought from bed bath and beyond.
@Tracy333 YES, I am a big fan of UO and Anthro. It's nice to buy many pieces to get free shipping! right? :P
@bejeweled I love C'ville! I currently study at UVA!!!
Again, thanks everyone!! <3 <3 <3
Bright and cheery! And I love the bedspread! I'd like to see some more artwork though :) But that's just a personal thing.
@herselftheelf Thank you! :) I love artwork, but I have a very strict landlord:/ I try not to make holes on the walls, so hanging up picture frames is kinda hard. I tried to use 3M adhesive tape, but it did not work well because the painting was very bad!!! The painting was peeling, and many times my artwork ended up on the floor :( I just learn to stop hanging up heavy things onto the walls. (I already did make some holes to hang mirrors and chevron curtain. I wish so bad I could hang chandelier!!! )
@SkylarkMelody I always hope my place can inspire those of you who believe in small but cool space:) YES!!!, those knobs are from http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/product/home-hardware-knobs/670475.jsp

Thank you <3 <3
Aww, this is SO cute! You've made it look adorable, great job! :)
Cute!
I really love your concept of seeing the main room as a bedroom suite, as opposed to living area with a bed in view. I think you are unique in that aspect. You've done a wonderful job. Congrats!
I so wanted to favourite this...but...I needed to see more than the bed and couch, couch and bed...a pic from the bed looking at whatever that table thingy is would have done it for me, it made me think,what is NOT working here..???
Love all the patterns together! You've done a great job with so little room. Love,love, love the bedspread-looked on Anthropologie and couldn't find it. Any more information you could give me about it? Thanks and good luck in the contest!
@nancyalice I love my bed frame and my bedspread so much. It would be sad if I hide my bed;) It's just nice to have a comfortable bed to sleep on after a long tiring day.
@Jaqui Awwww...I am so sorry I am not a good photographer:( That table is my desk plus office chair. It's my office area actually.
@canarymom Thank you:) This Laelia quilt was on sale when I bought it. I think you can find on ebay:) It is probably not on sale price though. You can try to check this bedding in store too:)
Thank you everyone <3 <3
I love that bed! It's amazing, and such a good accent to the room!
I love that bed, too! Sheets and all.
Where did you get your kitchen table, that's just what Ive been looking for!
Your space is so cozy, imaginative, and inviting. This is what the Small Cool contest is all about -- maximizing what you've got, imaginatively. Well done.
