  • 🌱 After 3 months I finally have my Tokyo Apartment Makeover!🌱 This is an older Japanese apartment building but I think it adds to the charm. In this makeover I swap out and build furniture, use contact paper on my kitchen cabinet, make organizers from Daiso, hang curtains, add my plant friends and more.

    I once lived in the typical old japanese apato during my uni life too. My room became crazy cold when it comes to winter since the window doesn't have latest technology to keep the room warm. I recommend to buy a real good heater to ^^

    the print of your "terrifying" curtains is the same as traditional finnish ceiling decoration called "himmeli". irl they're actually quite pretty. people make them out of straw and thread and stack them like that to make them look really complex.

You need to coshare or else u get the entire unit or rent a studio type but this two were very expensive for foreigner worker like me
