a la maison

If you know me at all, you know that I absolutely loooove to decorate. I would move every year just to be able to re-decorate my house and try new things. I think John and I have finally stopped with our projects around here. There just isn't a whole lot left to do, or money to do it with =0) My options are severely limited here in Senegal. There are no thrift stores and furniture is extremely ugly and expensive, since wood is scarce. I think we've managed to throw a pretty cute apt. together, though. Here are some little details:

Shelving in the living room.

I collect owls from all over the world. These are just a few.

In the living room.

I've had this shelf for nine years! It's made in India, but from Urban Outfitters. I love it!
