I think it's finished now, finally. It took so long for me to get around to photographing everything since it all changed, we are so messy. I like that it looks a little lived in (dishes in sink, dog toys beside sofa, mess on my desk). One day I'll get around to dusting again.

Don't forget to enter the competition in the post below to win some kawaii Polka Dot Rabbit goods.

  6. Wow, I can't even start pointing out my favorite parts.
    It's one of those houses, that couldn't be more perfect, even the imperfections like some dishes etc make it great.
    Anyway I love every bit, you must love waking up to it.

    Yes collectors is reasonably new.
    There's only been four issues.
    You can get issue 3 & 4 still from the abc shops, they're about $8.95 I think!! I'm excited about my train ride tomorrow just so I can tuck into one.
    I too am excited about the shoes article haha

  12. Wow!

    You have an eye for detail.

    I LOVE the slightly retro aesthetic such as the orange cat ornaments( I collect the originals from the 60's)and your use of the colour red.
    It's very inspiring.

    I just moved into a new apartment and am currently decorating, It does take time to find the right pieces but it's so much fun.

    I'll be adding an interior feature to my blog soon and I'd love to feature your amazing apartment!

  17. This is s serious work of art Hayley! How you achieve such a delicious balance and harmony, and on a shoe string budget, deserves a round of applause. It must have taken much dedication to stay true to your theme over time, and it is that focus that makes this such a success. You are my decorating hero! ^-^

  18. Happy New Year Hayley :)

    Your apartment looks so chic and stylish - you've done an amazing job. There are too many details I adore to name them all, but mostly I love all the animal motifs, use of red and the skull.
