Katie’s space is bright, fun and welcoming. (Image credit: Submitted by Katie )

Name: Katie
Location: Austin, Texas

I love my home because it’s filled with things that make me happy! I consider my style to be “collected eclectic,” and my home is a perfect collection of my vintage finds, DIYs, bargain buys, and even a couple of splurges. I’m by no means a minimalist, and I’m certainly not afraid of a little color!

When I purchased my first home, I was looking for something that wasn’t going to require too much work, yet was still customizable to my style. I took a risk and bought something a little further from downtown Austin than I originally wanted, but at the rate Austin was growing, I knew it wouldn’t be long before everything started moving out this way as well—luckily, I was right! Other contributing factors were the fact that it’s minutes away from the best Target in town and it has a TON of closet space.

Thanks, Katie!
