Proof that nothing's impossible:

I move quickly to make a house feel like home.

That includes moving furniture to the way I like it, unpacking everything, reorganizing all the drawers, and finding decorations that reflect me.

Within the first few hours, I'd done all but the last--and I wasn't optimistic about it. I mean honestly, how am I going to find anything that matches these colors?


As I meandered through the bureaucratic hell of the morning, I stumbled upon a market. The very first stall sold Indian goods. And there it was--the one thing to tie my entire apartment together:


Tell me those aren't the PERFECT colors for my previously ugly color scheme?! Ok, so I'm not Indian (despite how exotic some sometimes perceive me to be), and suddenly my apartment will be scattered with elephant-themed decorations, but hey--at least it looks good covering my "closet"!

I've now pledged to visit every possible market in Paris... Wish me luck!
