mi casa

this is where i live! in a beautiful house that was built in 1909.

i moved in last september, leaving my parents' home for the first time. moving out definitely signified more than just changing where go at the end of the day to lay my head. sometimes i'm surprised at how i've grown up and come so far in the last few years. every time i accomplish something it becomes second nature, so i forget and it gets locked in the memory bank. accomplishments pile up and occasionally become visible to me again, and that's when i'm forced to look in the bank and feel a sense of pride.

i knew i could be independent...i just needed the chance!

come in and take a look!  ps. after i took some pictures around the house i updated the item photos in my store, modelling the pieces myself. not gonna lie, it was pretty fun :)

  8. Hey! Let's try this again, not from my phone this time. I love your casa! Some things that stood out for me: the beautiful peachy-coloured floral headband, a Joel Plaskett ticket stub (jealous!) and the leaving-the-house checklist - especially the hand-printed addition. Awesome!
