I’m going to give you guys a glimpse into my apartment, one photo at a time. The following comes from one my shelves and features my prized two Dl & Co skull candles as well as various Russian Nesting dolls from China and Belarus. The ones from Belarus were gifted ( the first and last) and the one in the middle was brought back with me from China. I actually had two, but one succumbed to a slow and painful death of children playing with it and then a dog chewing on its various parts. As you probably have guessed, I keep these pretty high up and out of reach.
I definitley did not notice the slight dust till just now. Oh well, adds to effect? I mean, I do want to live in a medieval castle with spiderwebs, candelabras and velvet furniture, so black skull candles and a little dust has got to be a step in the right direction? Right?
Ok, ok, seriously I cleaned it. Geez, you readers are worse then my mom.
Dl & Co call themselves modern alchemists, purveyors of all things macabre and amazing. They are my absolute favorite candle company as well as favorite company for candle related items. Everything they sell is beautifully made and adds some crazy charm to your apartment. I have quite a few items of theirs, check it out :
Skull Candle- I have two, I use them as bookends. Available at Barneys
Owl Candle Snuffer, one of my fave pieces and so affordable- available at Rain Collection
A few months ago I wrote about wanting this claw candle holder for my apartment, and my sister surprised me with it for Christmas. Mine is in gold. Available at DL & Co
Cute little candle scent- smells absolutely amazing, and the box is super cute to keep trinkets or jewelry in. Available at Barneys
I’ll take some photographs of my apartment soon.
So, this weekend I am moving into a new apartment. It’s a cute little studio/1 bedroom (the bedroom is separate, but with no actual door), with purple walls and exposed brick. I have all of the furniture I would need- an antique Victorian style flower upholstered couch, a bertoia chair, a black and bleached cream antique table, a dark green antique lamp, and a plain old box spring bed that does not go with anything. However, it’s the home decor that I really need…okay, maybe, want..

These lightboxes are sick.
