Last week I mentioned I moved into a new apartment. It’s an interim place while I house hunt.
Yep, I’m looking for a new house! It’s very exciting but I’m not sure where I’m moving yet.
So many decisions!! All of the houses I’ve been looking at need renovations so there will be some great before and after photos coming up.
For now, I want to show you my ‘pied-à-terre’. It’s my little apartment in the city while I look for a new house.
I worked my little butt off this weekend to get it together. I’ve lived here for a month now but with so much going on, I’ve barely had a chance to unpack or decorate. It’s a long weekend here in BC so I took advantage of.
What do you think?
I hate moving, I really do. I haven’t moved for six years now but I used to move every six months.
Every six months! Who does that? I do apparently. When I grew up, I didn’t move that much but when I moved out after high school, I would move every six months.
Don’t ask me why. There were many different reasons. Sometimes I would find a better apartment down the street with better hardwood floors and I would move.
And I would move just by walking my stuff down the street because I thought that would be easier.
Which it wasn’t. Don’t ever do it. Moving down the street is actually far worse than moving across town.
It was so fun to mix up all my artwork that I’ve had.
Some is from City Farmhouse (grey art pieces) and Maison de Pax (black and white Paris photography).
I bought this chandelier last year from Antique Farmhouse but it’s also available on Painted Fox.
I’ve posted on Instagram before about how I unknowingly match my clothing and accessories to my decor. You might have come across this one about how my watch matches my decor.
How cool is it to have a wood watch that matches your decor?
Pretty cool I think.
Swarovski crystals and a gold rose face? Yes please.
It’s called the Sidney from Jord.
I love wood with pink. How perfect is that?
So I’m super happy with my new watch.
And of course my new apartment.
It’s a crazy time right now but also good. I don’t know what’s to come but it’s exciting what’s on the horizon.
For now I’m all set up in my new pied-à-terre.
And can’t wait to show you around more.

Jamie, it’s fabulous! Next month, we will be moving into a rental apartment while we house hunt, too. I’m excited to see where you (and I!) end up!
That’s exciting Jenna! I love your blog. It sucks being in limbo but it’s nice to make a rental comfy and cozy while you’re there. Good luck house hunting!
Hugs, Jamie
You have created a beautiful spot in your temporary living space! I love it.

You are going to find the perfect home for you and the kids whether it is in the city or the country…..and I have a feeling that maybe it will finally be your forever home. The one you won’t have to move from. I’m so happy to see that you’ve been able to make this place of transition look homey and still YOU. But I can’t wait to see what you find and how you transform it.
You’re so sweet, Jamie. I hope we don’t move for a long time! Thanks for your sweet comment, friend.
Hugs, Jamie
