every home has a story like And subscribe for more my favorite part of the apartment which is our living room obviously was the first room I walked into but immediately fell in love with in the space I love all of the natural light that pours in I'm actually a huge fan of the parquet flooring and then the fireplace is one of my favorite features in here as well what did this room look like when we moved here nothing like what you see here it was pretty much just what walls parquet flooring very simple the apartment is over 100 years old so I wanted to really incorporate a lot of that charm and detail into the design of it and play off a lot of those features when I was incorporating everything I love the traditional sense of it all but adding some Modern touches is my favorite thing we knew that the building had original wall molding so I wanted to add that back into the apartment we found a renter friendly version of it that we were able to do and it's basically made out of a polyurethane so it's really really lightweight and we just mapped it out and went to town one Saturday and it is crazy the amount of character and interest that it adds back into the space so how do you go about doing a project like that you step one is convince your husband and say pretty please like a hundred times and then the second thing is honestly a lot of trial and error I had to order a lot of different samples and a lot of patience in preparation I love this chandelier of course I had the crazy idea the first time I walked in here to have a really dramatic statement piece your eye goes right to it when you walk in the door it's also one of my favorite pieces because it was hilarious to try to hang my dad actually helped us and two months later he actually passed away so it's the brightest light in the apartment it reminds me of him second favorite piece in the apartment is this gorgeous gorgeous fireplace it was definitely the first thing that Drew me to the place it is original to the building so it is well over a hundred years old and I'm 510 for reference so she is massive um but the detailing in it is so insane and it's something that you just can't get anymore I've been told my style is kind of grand Millennial it's I love traditional pieces I think they remind me of when I was young they remind me of what my grandmother's house looked like such classic pieces but I also like to add a little bit of flair and personality with modern pieces things that are a little bit more quirky I totally get there's a lot of hesitation to do anything to a place that you don't own I think there are a couple of factors that you can go through one if it's inexpensive and not time consuming and it'll make you happy then I say it's worth the investment to do that if you're gonna love where you live the second thing is think about if it's something that you can take with you to the next place you live in whether you you own necks or rent next if it's something that you can take with you then it'll be a really special piece that you can take so we're gonna get started in the foyer the foyer is actually one of my favorite things about the apartment because I used to live in a studio apartment and I didn't have a foyer so it was super exciting to have a space that really set the tone for the apartment so in here I wanted to do something that kind of differentiated the space from everything else in the apartment and I had my heart set on using a mural paper in the apartment and when I started looking into it my space was just a little too big for a predetermined mural and it was prohibitively expensive to have an artist develop a custom scaled mural for the space so I decided to try my hand at painting my own and I knew I wanted it to be a grease eye mural and one of the things that was unusual about this room is it had no windows but one of my favorite things in the apartment is the view so I wanted to create the sense of a view in here and also remind people of trees and garden that are in The Tudor City greens outside so I created this mural in the foyer and the inspiration was really imagining maybe what the East River would have looked like before Manhattan was developed but I also wanted to pay homage to my English roots with my dad and kind of have this English country pastoral Vibe as a respite from the city so I created the mural actually using sponge painting which is a total shortcut but I really like the way that gives a sense of depth to the space and sets the tone for the apartment uh the mural took me probably a about a really solid weekend working probably a three-day weekend working early in the morning until late at night when I'm working on something I tend to get kind of engrossed and really dive into the weeds and that's what this was and I kept working on it until I loved it so you might be figuring out by now a lot of things in this apartment are by paint um and it's kind of a cheating method of doing everything but I wanted to get a certain look and there's nothing white in the apartment um except for accents so I created this homage to a panel door on the original flat panel 1950s doors and really love this blue color and kind of set the stage for the color palette in the apartment and taped out the raised panel myself and painted it and you'll see that detail used throughout the apartment so this is the first thing that you see when you come in the front door I love having a mirror and I wanted to create a space where I can drop my mail leave Connor's Treats but also make the space multi-functional and kind of have a little bit of a wow moment so right now I have some seasonal color with branches that Echo the trees behind in the mural and kind of bring it to life in 3D but this piece is super great it's where I keep all of my towels and sheets for the apartment and it's tall I'm tall I love the height of it and it doubles as a bar when I'm having parties I had a milestone birthday for my mom that I hosted in the apartment and put a big bucket out here full of champagne and it's a fun way to welcome guests so the foyer is one of the most traditional spaces in the apartment so I just decided to lean completely into it my good friend interior designer Gary ketigan Uptown um used to have this clock in his bathroom uh he's really has a great sense of humor and he was moving to the Carlyle and didn't need a clock anymore so we had a great time hauling it in an Uber in the middle of July down to the apartment but it fits perfectly in this space I had to fur out the wall to build the kitchen and locate all the electrical guts of the apartment behind this bulletin board so it just had this this perfect spot for the clock the other thing that I wanted to do in here to Anchor the space was to send her a light fixture in the space and just create a totally different tone own than what the space used to be before when I first walked into the apartment the first thing that I saw was the large row of Windows that kind of lines the living room area I had never seen anything like it in New York and I just knew like from the second we walked in this was the place I didn't even have to look around it could have been a pit and I would have been like this is it this is it and luckily it wasn't a pit we had to do a lot of work but it ended up being I think just right for us I used to work for a really high-end design firm and it always seems to bother me that I'd be seeing all these beautiful things all the time and I was like I want that in my apartment but I can't that's totally inaccessible so I kind of started just figuring out ways that I could make my apartment feel luxurious and similar to kind of the really high-end designers that you're going to see in architectural digest and how it's beautiful so I kind of took it upon myself to start investigating that and coming up with little tips and tricks to create a beautiful home on a budget because I think everyone should have access to a beautiful home that feels just like them but also so has those little luxury touches that makes it feel collected and curated and designed [Music] so here we are in my little entryway just walking into my apartment I think an entryway is a really important place to start like your design and start your Vibe because it's the first thing you're going to see when you walk into the apartment so I like mine to be really colorful and interesting and very me um so here I have a lot of art there is no shortage of Art and so I love to just like throw stuff on the walls I kind of carry you in here with this diagonal sort of line through I have my nautical stuff um I have my Matisse we love Matisse um and most of my art is thrifted or very cheap very affordable I have a little tray where you can put keys I like to have some kind of floral arrangement or greens when you walk in just kind of invite you in make you feel at home the bamboo thing was from a flea market in Maine which there is one flea market in Maine that probably like 50 of my stuff is from it's the Arundel flea in Kennebunkport if you ever get up there so I love Rattan I love bamboo it's definitely a little bit Grandma but if you pair it with the right things with bright colors it's not going to feel like that kind of 80s rattan Miami Beach House type on oh look at him Jody stop it oh my God see look at that he likes to eat my furniture he has very good taste so my door I had a dream one night and this is so bad but this is what happens to me I had a dream that I had a painted door and I was like oh okay I guess I need to paint a door because it was a really good dream so I decided to paint the door in stripes and I was kind of debating I wanted to do a really bright paint color but then because my space is so small and interconnected and you can really see everything from everywhere so you need to make sure that you're pulling in tones that are repeated throughout the space so I pulled in my bedroom color because it's it's Benjamin Moore Iceberg so it's a kind of warm blue it's not really it kind of looks like a gray out of context so it's a really subtle tone and because I was doing a bold stripe I wanted it to be a little more on the subtle side and yeah it was really fun I ended up carrying it through very impulsively to the trim and then I added this molding from Amazon it's just stick on and so I carried it through that way just to add a little bit more color in here and interest here we kind of have this open area definitely not a big space but it is what I would call a dead space it's an area where there's not much functional use besides walking and that's why I decided to put this entryway table here it's a kind of table that you see in like big houses in the entryway but I thought you know what just because my apartment's small doesn't mean I can't have a fabulous entryway table so I got this table just it was just some kind of cheap find on Amazon and then this beautiful tablecloth is by my aunts company Mary marshmallow and the fun thing about this table is that if you're like me and you have a lot of stuff that you like to decorate and switch up all the time like I just love arranging stuff I love kind of switching things around it's a great place for that so taking all of your favorite things and kind of putting them on this table it's a little bit of an organized chaos they create a little grid of books books that you think are pretty books that you think are funny I just think this book is hilarious I don't understand it I just think it's ironic because we love women I think it's funny I like little things that make people talk I like things that are a little more interesting maybe people go what I think that's a fun way to decorate my style is eclectic it's bright some would say preppy um I don't really know how to describe it some people say Grand Millennial I use a lot of Blues it's my favorite color and I love like neutral tones and Wickers natural textures and also kind of combining that with really bright pops of pink and green and blue and pastel colors I think it's really fun and happy and artistic and I just I like to feel uplifted in my home not brought down by dark tones and so yeah I really like my bright colors it's always great to put a really big Arrangement so a great place for an arrangement that has a lot of height because there's kind of nothing around it like it's you know it's not obstructing the eye in any way this area is actually my desk and it's very dressed up right now for you guys and it's kind of what it looks like when I'm entertaining so underneath here is just my regular desk where I do my work if you get a great tablecloth that you love bring it out when you're entertaining and it kind of transforms into a serving space or a bar something like that really fun I just lay out glasses that I love and just create just a little space like a little vignette I love vignettes these were a fine thrifted find as is like all of my art this was one of I think like two splurges I would say in my apartment Custom Framing is crazy expensive but sometimes it can be worth it this was my first project and I was so excited about it that I wanted it to be framed and up on my wall as kind of like a you did it good job kind of thing that I can look at every day and just be proud of myself I love bamboo I love bamboo gold frames it was Cynthia from Collins Interiors who I'm obsessed with saying that if you group things together that are similar it has a much greater impact than spreading them throughout the house and that stuck with me and I think I've just been kind of like having that in the back of my head as I've been decorating so I grouped all of these gold bamboo frames together instead of bringing this somewhere else and some think about it is so impactful and creates like such an impression and I really love that so the apartment was built in the 1960s and we found it in 2020 and it took about eight months to renovate we touched it up we didn't have to do much besides the kitchen and bath the rest was mostly just cosmetic these floors were here and really what I did was fill it up with myself I feel like everything in here is just me I love color I love layering textures and patterns but also keeping a lot of brightness and lightness is kind of my style so it's a little bit of fresh it's a little bit eclectic when everything is on a budget so the only thing I splurged on was my bedding pretty much so you'll notice like I do a lot of little hacks a lot of little things that make this feel a lot more luxury I think than it really cost this building was built in the 1930s I believe it was a paper Factory before it became Apartments I think in the 80s before we moved into the apartment was literally just an open space White Walls and a brick wall and Butch Lawrence this is the first accent wall I painted I didn't really know what I was doing this is back in like 2018 and like painting shapes and stuff wasn't really a thing yet some people were doing it but I I'd seen it somewhere online I have no idea where and I fell in love with this color called copper patina by bear and I knew I wanted to paint this entire wall including the molding and including the Shelf because the Shelf was just like a bare wood with red brackets before and I it just didn't like it ironically this was actually my least favorite part of the apartment before painting it um and then when I painted it it became my absolute favorite so I love that wherever the problem is is the opportunity this is my dining space I actually found these chairs on the street and then I painted them green which is a theme of the apartment I tend to paint a lot of things green and I wear a lot of green I wear a lot of green I use a lot of green green I didn't know Green was my favorite color until like a year ago oh Dusty who's this this is Dusty he wants to be a part of the movie he'll be a star my friend and then I ended up adding a lot of green into this Frame wall assembling it took way longer than I thought I had them all laying on the floor here for like seven hours my favorite is our Burger print it's our specific Burger order at our favorite burger place uh so it's very near and dear to us this is our like bar area this is a vintage Johnson carpet dresser that we're using as like a credenza kind of thing as I've said we have no storage in the apartment so there's a lot of dressers in the apartment because for literal just storage where do you find a lot of your stuff in here um we find a lot of it like on the street this was through a friend who was selling it through her Instagram because she was moving um this is I found this in Ryan's family's house it's 100 years old apparently um just like a little shelf and I use it to hold our um cups we have some vintage cups and some Ikea cups and um just kind of a mishmash of things that I love what's the secret to finding things on the street honestly you can find amazing stuff I have found vintage mid-century modern tables I have this guy this is a Haywood Wakefield I have a second one of him of this vintage Haywood Wakefield which I have a second one of as well that I'm in the midst of refinishing but I am learning the skill of how to refinish wood so uh just be a little patient with me but I found these on the street and they're like really like sought after vintage pieces so you're just like never know just keep your eyes peeled and don't be afraid to just like grab something hop on an Uber or like ask a friend to come help you grab it just do it because you could New York is like such a resource for amazing furniture that people need to get rid of so during quarantine um me and like a lot of people were very bored and wanted to find ways of I don't know adding more personal touches to their Apartments um painting is such a great way for like a renter if you're allowed to paint um to change the complete feel of the space because before I always felt like the furniture I had here was kind of floating out of nowhere and I wanted something colorful a to like and to also really just Define this area so that it all the whole apartment doesn't kind of feel like everything's floating the best part about painting too is like if you hate it you can just paint over it it's not a big deal um so I knew if I hated it I would have the time to paint over it um this is our giant Crate and Barrel sectional that we got off Craigslist it was the first piece of furniture we bought when we got this apartment we had a panic attack when we first moved in we didn't really know how to decorate a loft space specifically one that literally is just a rectangle so I knew I wanted some sort of big um grounding anchoring piece in the center of the apartment and I found this one on Craigslist for a fifth of the price we jumped on it I don't even think we thought about it I think we just kind of said we were getting it and then how to get a U-Haul which was horrible um and picked it up in Midtown like 42nd and eighth like the worst place to have a U-Haul trying to find a place to park it it was it was pretty much a nightmare but safe to say it was worth it it's our favorite piece of furniture um in the apartment it's also Dusty's favorite piece of furniture um and I think it's possibly the comfiest couch on the planet um this is our bedroom area um I kind of defined it by adding a big colorful shelf and a green if you can imagine um to kind of separate the space I also hung these frames up here too to like mimic a wall um we thought about putting something that was like more like a wall but I didn't want to block any of the light because these are our only windows in the entire apartment and then we have a skylight over there so I want to make sure light could pass through it so that was really important um this is my headboard that I DIY this was just a wooden headboard that we had it was just like a light colored wood it was really cute I loved it but I really wanted something upholstered and I wanted something in green because it's me um and I love like an olive green I'm like obsessed with it and um so I upholstered it I got some like foam and some batting I have the DIY on my website if you're interested in all the stuff I used and I found this gorgeous fabric on Amazon of all places and I kind of just one day just threw it all together and I fell in love with it and then I had extra um material and literally this is the exact amount that was left and which is why it's so skinny and long tell me about this um so we have an industrial heater um it is placed over where I sleep on the bed which I guess makes me incredibly brave but I'm not really worried about it ever falling it's been there I think for like 30 years plus um it certainly runs like it's at least 30 years old when you live in an old factory in New York City you get you get a resner you are so handsome you are so handsome what I love most about my apartment is that it is a big open space so it always feels Grand it always has that wow factor when you walk in I love watching people who've never seen my apartment before come in their fur their face when they first see it that's always really exciting to me so from here we will go into our kitchen space and one of the I guess quirky things about this apartment is that our washer and dryer which I so appreciate um doesn't well it's in our kitchen so the refrigerator doesn't actually fit into the kitchen and this is our washer and dryer so we actually made this Center room an extension of our kitchen when we moved in it was just a white empty room and it had a refrigerator it was like a shorter wider refrigerator and um that refrigerator is now in like another unit but I found something tall and skinny and then we added a cabinet with a countertop and this is something we can take with us wherever we go but it has given us so much more like space to cook and to fold clothes and it's just made this space so much more functional we added brackets and shelves and um have some like baking ingredients stored up there but yeah we completely transformed this little kitchen extension room and it's very very appreciated it's a huge passion of mine DIY projects I think of a new idea like every day that I want to do in here so that's kind of how I started um I guess that's a huge part of my job as well it started as a hobby I started a Blog back in 2014 of DIY projects and now it's turned into like a part of my job so I wanted to personalize this room a bit so I found these little picture frames and added peel and stick magnets to the back of them to make them magnets and I think they're just like there's they make me so happy seeing them every single day so love that little quick project that we did and I have our menu from our wedding on this side of the refrigerator so any way to personalize our refrigerator while keeping it like you know classic and beautiful it that was my goal with this refrigerator and I love it so we were married in Charleston so it has green beans shrimp and grits mashed potato Gourmet mashed potato bar pimento mac and cheese so good that was five years ago and to make this room even more functional we added a shelf here which is the perfect dimensions for this wall and I store napkins and tablecloths down here and dishes olive oil seasonings all sorts of little kitchen gadgets and things we reach for often and just another little way that we made this more functional so every little inch that could be used for something kitchen related we did that so I added hooks here for these colanders and measuring cups and over here I have a I found this antique sewing machine drawer on Facebook Marketplace and this is where I store tea and sugar and it's just a nice way to store things if you don't live in New York you might not realize this but I would say 99 nine percent of kitchens are terrible and ours falls into that category too we have made it slightly less Terrible by basically applying stickers to everything so the first thing we did was get some contact paper for the counters uh no it's not marble and if you look there's like little air bubbles but it wasn't this white formica before and made the kitchen feel like a combination of Nursery School meets nursing home and so we had to change it we changed the hardware which is secretly more expensive than you think I think we spent like 200 bucks on new hardware um stickers were not expensive for the counters but my favorite part it's actually this tile or should I say tile because this is also a sticker it is from Smart tiles it did a lot of research you should not buy another brand if you're wanting to do this just use Smart tiles and I think personally it has made a huge difference and turned our disgusting kitchen into a less disgusting kitchen and kind of that's the best you could hope for in New York sometimes okay so you've come in you've dropped your bag you've de-cropped your feet you've admired the stickers in the kitchen where to now we go right this way into the living room which if you're paying attention you might realize it's all one room that's another perk of New York living and this is sort of our like treasure zone so it's things that are important to both my husband and me but mostly me because I make the rules in the house um and I guess the things that I love the most are like these book guns are from work they're Jonathan Adler and when we got married they gave them to us there's two with a mustache these are from the dearly departed store sea wonder the dust is mine I added that myself it didn't come with it and these little brass Ducks actually got out of the trash so what kind of trash like on the street um from our buildings uh uh like trash Nook where you put like things you think that other people might want and guess what wanted them and I've been using them very happily ever since and I think they look like they could have come from my grandmother's house in Massachusetts I think my uh interior design aesthetic sort of tells the same story as my wardrobe it's pretty classic a little preppy um sort of mid-century a little masculine not super masculine and messy and those are the m words I would use to describe uh our style so as you make your way into the living room which again is the same room we were dressed in five feet ago this is another spot I really like so this is our Gallery wall and I'm not saying I like it just because there's not one but two pictures of me um these are actually both by uh Brooke lit on Instagram so you should check her out and I don't know there's just so much history here this was my house growing up in Massachusetts that my parents had painted um this is by a fabulous artist called Luke Edward hall and then like this was a postcard that my husband had growing up of the Concord word how much do you wish that you were able to fly the Concord like I know it crashes but like I kind of think I would take a chance oh I have to show this so this is my brother me and my dad we went to like an old tiny photo booth and I really embraced the character like I've got the gun slung over my shoulder the big belly um I'm so glad that that has ended up in my stash of art I wish I had a cuter more clever name for what this stack of Hermes boxes is I think the truth is it's just evidence of a shopping addiction but I will say the color kind of brightens up the corner so dusty [Music] there like this one which is a heart-shaped box as you can tell which I spilled a little tide on but we'll just say that's patina um and this was what for a scarf with hearts on it clearly but this was just so clever and and I won't say that I bought the scarf because of the box but I also won't say I didn't buy the scarf because of the box so thankful that we have this space we actually so we painted the whole Space when we moved in we also painted these archways I was really inspired by how a lot of the Brooklyn Brownstones actually have painted black archways in their entrances so that's sort of what inspired us to do it here and recreate it um this piece of furniture was something that when I realized we had a wall space for it we were so excited to bring it this was actually Ryan's grandmother's and we painted it black and refinished it and then also updated it with some hardware and it's storage piece but also something sentimental that we were able to bring with us so this one has a few different pieces some of them we found from shops online some we shot found in vintage shops here the one in the brown frame up there I actually found from a local used bookstore it's called westsider books if you're in Manhattan or in New York check out out because they have some amazing vintage books but pretty much how I go about doing any of my gallery walls is I like to mix about two or three colors or like types of frames so here I have the black the Browns and Golds and then I will just lay them out on the floor I usually space um about an inch or two inches apart and then I'll use they make these command strips that have Velcro on them you just stick them to the frame stick them up on the wall use a level and you're good to go I don't actually pre-measure anything before I put it up I just start going and see where it takes me and kind of love the collective look that it ends up having so that means you don't use any nails no Nails nope it's all just like you can rip it off if you wanted to and it's just velcro onto the wall and then you just peel it off when you move out and hopefully don't have to repair anything let's go into the living space so this is our living room dining room Cafe Bar office area a little bit of everything it's a really big room for a living space in New York so we lucked out there um I think the first thing that you see the elephant in the room is it's a beautiful fireplace two days into us moving here we found this gem on Facebook Marketplace believe it or not um there was a girl who was selling it in Washington Square Park it was snowing that day but we just went and grabbed it I think she was selling it for like 200 this is my TV actually believe it or not so this is a Samsung frame um it displays artwork on it and the reason it's on an easel is because we tried to mount it above the fireplace where we moved in and hope my landlord doesn't see this but we put a hole in the wall trying to mount it so lesson learned you do not drill into pre-war walls did you put up all this molding we did so we knew we wanted to have that here so we found renter friendly way to do it it's actually made out of polyurethane so it's super lightweight we did the same thing here where we put um the double stick mounting tape behind it and pressed it up painted it all the walls are Swiss coffee it's a pre-war building it was built in I think 1925 so we wanted to incorporate a lot of kind of art deco influences like from that era and I have somewhat of a modern style but I really like to incorporate vintage elements and like a collection of things that are meaning to us as opposed to just filling it with stuff I think that was something that we learned when we moved to New York is that space is limited and everything that you have in your apartment needs to be either intentional or practical even if it's pretty so this is looks like a sconce right it's actually not hardwired these are hardwire lights and you can just put little Puck lights up in there that are controlled on a remote and you can fake it so what would usually cost several hundred dollars to get it installed and have something that you have to majorly repair when you move out we actually did this for very inexpensively and it looks perfect these were a find on Craigslist actually so I think they're from the 60s or 70s and we snagged and we actually painted them black they were wood before so this is something I don't know if I'm more proud of this or of our fireplace but this is a cabinet when we moved here I needed somewhere to store all my glassware our cabinet space got small really quickly um so we wanted some sort of curio cabinet and this actually was another second hand find believe it or not this was like 300 I think it was kind of a golden brown when we got it and then we painted it black and I think it's perfect so this is the other side of our living space it is if you don't live in New York you might not know having a dining room feels like a luxury in the city um but we actually did have it at first when we moved in um we had the living room about six different ways I think before we kind of found what flow worked best and what maximized the space and once we set it up this way we realized we actually had room to put a dining room in this corner um with a little bar cart over there and then also make room for an office along this wall this is my husband Ryan and this is one of our cats this is Neville he's our shy yeah this is the one that you'll never see so this is actually a treat for you and for everybody it's his first camera debut probably yeah it's the first time he's been seen in public so Ryan you're the artiste here tell me about this Gallery wall yeah so everything on this Gallery wall kind of has a story or means something to us it has some relevance it wasn't just a bunch of things that we thought were pretty well these three are original picassos but uh specifically these two are my favorites so how do you go that when you hear Picasso you're like no there's no way you don't have 20 million dollars he did tons of these just little sketches and watercolors in like a little Sketchbook and you can find these uh they're verified by Galleries and art museums but you can find them on auctions and through galleries for less than a thousand dollars a piece so now we're kind of leaving our living space our apartment kind of makes a circle so we're going into our kitchen now which for New York standards this is a big kitchen which I was thrilled with because I do actually love to cook for all the great restaurants that are here I actually love being in the kitchen so when we moved in it was it was okay for a New York kitchen but we wanted to really make it our own and renovate it a little bit so we added this believe it or not is peel and stick so this comes on a sheet and it's real marble it's actual tile and was not that expensive so we replaced our backsplash um we replaced the hardware and the faucet as well we actually did that ourselves it's not as hard or as intimidating as you might think it is um and just those things alone really updated the kitchen and made it feel like us so the view you can actually see the Hudson River from our window this at night it just twinkles and it's a Dream City View I can't believe I get to stand here like coffee in the morning and look out the window so we actually added this um bar card in and just I actually usually end up cooking and prepping food here and then turning around which our our stove does open there's always a lot of concern and there is room um but then we also added this open shelving that was something else we had in our old home that I really wanted to bring here we just have a lot of things I love displaying but we also made it functional with the food storage jars and so there's lots of ways to make it feel very pretty and decorative while still being really functional this is one of my favorite things this is a framed menu from a cafe that was across from our Airbnb in Paris it was just when we ate out a lot after we got engaged and nothing super fancy but it was just held a lot of
