Decorating and Style

What do you think our favorite color is? If you’ve peeped the decor on this site, you might have a guess!

Let’s be real: bathrooms can quickly turn into a chaotic mess. With all the foot traffic they get, they’re basically a reflection of your cleaning game.

Are you tired of looking at the boring, generic window shades that came standard with your apartments? Well, cover them up with some really fun and inexpensive curtains.

T'was the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring. Not even a mouse. The stockings were hung from the chimney with.....wait a minute....chimney?!??! What chimney.

No bedrooms? No problem.

Deciding whether to mount your flat-screen TV on the wall or place it on a stand may seem simple, but there’s more to consider than just aesthetics.

Is it really already Christmas tree time again!?! Man, is time flying by as I get older. Sounds so cliche', but so true. OK, well let's accept it and move on. The time has come to put up a tree.Again.

I've seen it a thousand times. Bed centered on one wall. TV centered on a dresser about 2 feet from the foot of the bed.

You had some posters and frames hung up on the walls with tacks and nails, but now you've decided to redesign your place, take them down, and move a few onto a different wall in your apartment.

When designing an apartment, color matters, it really does. And what color you use makes a huge difference in the feel your apartment gives off not only for people who stop by, but also for those who are living with it everyday.

The kitchen doesn't need much furniture, but it does require appliances and tools. Some apartment dwellers think all they need is a coffee machine, but that's far from the truth.

So you are almost done decorating your new apartment. You've followed our checklists for the perfect kitchen and living room, but what is next? Well - no living room is complete without a complimentary bedroom to match.

It's time to hook up the bathroom in your apartment. I am not talking about making the plumbing work as hopefully that has already been done.

So you have recently moved into your new apartment and now comes the time to fill it up with all the right pieces. Maybe not. Maybe you have been living there for a long time, but want to make sure you have all the right stuff.

Ever get so tired of the same layout in your apartment everyday that you constantly shuffle things around to make them seem different? I know I do.

During our waking hours, the one area of the apartment that more than likely we spend the majority of our time in is...the living room.

Do you love the beach and wish that you really, really had a beach house, but all you have is your awesome city-fied apartment?

Lights can add so much to your apartment. Sure, you could stick with the simple overhead light that comes installed in your place when you move in, but how boring is that?!?!

Need some ideas to spice up your bathroom? Does it look cold and empty like a public school bathroom? Nothing but the toilet sink, walls, mirror, and a few towels? Trust me. That's not impressing anyone or anything.

How messy is the shower in your apartment? Do you have haircare product bottles, soap, puffs, shaving cream, razors and who knows what else lining the base of your tub?

Want to add some extra flavor to a somewhat boring room?

Many bedrooms tend to get neglected. Get your minds out of the gutter, I'm talking about through decoration. My first apartment bedroom was so boring that it would put you to sleep...no pun intended....

I've seen my fair share of empty coffee tables or ones containing the weirdest things. Maybe some apartmentites out there need a little guidance or ideas for ways to decorate their living room centerpieces and make them shine.

From time to time, an apartment may feel small. In all honesty, if you look at the square footage between a three bedroom apartment and a three bedroom house, you'll find that they aren't far off from one another.

If your place looks good, you feel good. It's as simple as that.

Decorating your place for the holidays or a party? There are a few things that all residents of apartmentsmust keep in mind before embarking on your holiday decorating adventure.

We all know that living on a budget is a part of life. Like most people, apartment dwellers love finding easy ways to save some cash here and there.

Typically, many apartment residents don't spend a ton of time worrying about color in their apartment, but color is the key to emotional response in the place you love!

Decorating can be just like picking an outfit to wear. Seasons can effect what is "in" and what is "out.

Okay, so at this point I think it is safe to admit that there is a huge variety of things that people "Live 4" out there, but one specific "live for" is our motto around here and it rings true with just about everyone...
