Tags for Cozy Condo Living: condo small space solutions diy

Living in a condominium has some unique challenges when it comes to design/renovation (think condo board). We've lived in ours since 2006 and have learned a great deal about how to enhance what you already have and maybe can't get rid of (like wall-to-wall carpeting).

My goal is to share my tips/tricks with fellow condo owners (and even apt renters) who love good design, are on a budget, and just want a cozy place to call home.

P.S.  This blog is also chock full of DIY projects, Interior Design ideas, and a sprinkle of family life.

Your Fellow DIYer,

 The paint on the carpet is all my fault.  There's...

My Motto

Authors: Lisa @ Cozy Condo Living




This project was inspired by this print I found on Pinterest and have had in my DIY Ideas board forever.  I was hoping to enter in the Pinterest Challenge, but alas I was waaay too slow in getting it done.  It's now hanging on my wall in my living room where I see it every time I sit on my couch.  I...

Breezy Gray Dining Room

Authors: Lisa @ Cozy Condo Living

I never imagined myself using the words "breezy" and "gray" in the same sentence, but there it is (taken from the BM website).  Here's another first...I'm thinking about going for the look below in my dining room.  I would just use the green I currently have in the living room to tie it together. ...

Priming all baseboards, doors, and mouldings.  Using oil based primer was not a good idea.
