I'm going to start with the pic I put in morning coffee and follow with three other pics she sent me. Her place is so homey!

Shirl, I so love your new home and the way you've decorated it. Your patio & plants are absolutely beautiful! You definitely have a green thumb!

Shirl, I love your apartment! I don't have much of a decorating eye so enjoyed especially seeing your living room sofa and chairs. I tend to go plain so the floral sofa gives me ideas. You do have a green thumb! I love sedum so that will probably be my first patio planter.

When we moved from the house we built to our last house 2 years before Steven retired, he picked out the sofa/hide-a-bed --- - plaid! He got the job because I was having surgery right after we moved and couldn't climb stairs. I really did like it!!

Thanks, Beth for posting!

Shirl, love your place. Looks so homey instead of sterile as some are. You definitely do have a green thumb.

Thanks for the kind words. I have been in the apartment 2 years but just started referring to it as home. I moved from a 7 room house into 4 rooms (1000 sq. ft.) so apartment is cramped. Son-in-law said “cozy”. :) In the 60’s Bombay Company had beautiful finished cherry wood classic furniture cheaper than other places because it had to be assembled which was unusual. The price was right. Couldn’t part with the pieces so a little snug here. During this pandemic I have read that decal a lot. :roll:

Very nice! I like the porch because it looks big enough and is full of greenery.

Absoltuely love your place, Shirl!
It looks so comfy-cozy.... I wish I had just a smidge of the sense of decorating that you (& others in this group) have. It's what makes a house/apartment/condo a home.
The patio looks so nice with all the plants - not too big & not too small.
Thanks for sharing these pics with us.
