A Living Room Makeover Where I Break My OWN Design Rules | Moving Diaries Episode 2

I packed up my entire life, said goodbye to my old home, and moved to a brand new city, Philadelphia, with nothing but a mattress and two counter stools. And the first thing I had to deal with? The ugliest feature I've ever seen in an apartment. Okay, that may have been dramatic, but it’s pretty bad. In this episode of Moving Diaries, I'm showing you the full story including some easy, renter-friendly home hacks that look expensive, a few DIY projects, and budget-friendly furniture. If you're moving to a new city, starting over, or dealing with a small apartment design problem that feels impossible, this one's for you.
