philadelphia apartment tour | thrifted, vintage, and antiques | rittenhouse square
I'm so excited to show you my new apartment in Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia! This apartment is still a work in progress but I've done a lot with it during my first six weeks living here. Almost everything is either thrifted, vintage, or antique and I love how it's coming together!

I hope you keep your dresser. It’s not the only mcm/modern/contemporary piece you have. It also looks really special and not at all out of place.
Really sweet apartment. The vintage kitchen cabinets & the wall moldings are beautiful.
You've done so much in such a short time. It's really looking good. I love that tray you put the resin on and that chandelier is gorgeous.

Hi neighbor! I have a lot of Philly related videos on my channel, and definitely more to come 😊
Love the Victorian details with the moldings. Rittenhouse Square/Center City is my favorite neighborhood in Philadelphia. I enjoy Philly's history and proximity to DC too!
your goddessy prints and tapestries are so beautiful!!! i would design the bedroom around those colors and really highlight them! love your gallery wall too!!!
OMG! I'm obsessed! I love it! The chandelier looks amazing!

for that area near the door you could probably put a telephone bench. (if you google it you can see many different examples of vintage ones) it would probably be a good place to put keys, mail and if they have a lower portion shoes that you wear out often.

Im all about small spaces done well, vintage antique glamour parisian
Great space and love that sofa, coffee table and chandelier. I've always wanted either a pink or purple couch. I just watched your apt hunting video. I'm the lady returning to the States in a few months after 5 yrs in Europe. I'm old enough to be your mum but I'm a vintage seller and anytime you want to go thrifting/antiquing let me know.😂 I can treasure hunt all day.
My place is about the same vintage as yours. It was built in the 1920s. For some reason, that’s how they did toilets then, with all the plumbing inside the walls and what we identify as an institutional handle for flushing. If anything happens and a plumber needs to access the pipes etc., there goes my beautiful 1920s tile wall! But my place already had a chandelier like yours in it hanging in the long hallway.
Another beautiful space, tysvm for sharing 🙏👍💕🩷❤️🙋
You truly worked your magic here!! Can’t wait to keep watching your vids! ❤

It would be interesting to try switching the high sofa tables(which flank a low sofa) with the low bedside tables (which flank a high headboard)

Well done! I agree with your idea of the black & white floor for the kitchen. Would be so fitting.

Lovely apartment! Have you considered removing the picture on the wall over the toilet and installing a nice cabinet for storage? It really doesn't look that bad without a tank, and you could hang a decorative towel on the bar. You're creative, so I'm sure that you could still incorporate some artwork into the bathroom. Just curious - how is your ventilation working for your stove?
You have beautiful tapestries 😊

This is a cute apt. Your tapestry are very cool. I still like dining room table where office is,call me weird but it just seems that it makes more sense.I love all the space though, it doesn't take long to fill it. Do you have like a bar cart? That would look good in livingroom,for entertaining& maybe some music type pictures/ stero/ something of that nature. I love your gallery wall,I have mine all over( not a minimalist).😊 Maybe some different mirrors,macromay. Do what you like.👍
OMG the wall behing the sofa and the cool little tables! :O I am obsessed, you made the place into a gem! Especially bcs I just watched the video when you were househunting so I saw how it looked like! Question, sorry if you have answerred it in another video, I am trying to go chronologically: what did you use on the kitchen countertop to make it black? Is it waterproof? Update: this is what happens when you don't wait until the end of the video to comment, now you are talking about the peel and stick on the countertop. :D

get rid of the dusty rose pink , replace the dresser with a old pine antique, choose a duvet cover with pattern of green flowers , some curtains would finish off the windows

Hi Sarah. Lovely apartment with your decorating flair. Beautiful!! How many square feet is your apartment? I'm guessing 800 . Thank you.

The brand is called Elffloor!
Things are hung too high on the "gallery wall" in the living space. You need a medallion on the ceiling where the chandelier is

Why don't you move that dressing table (minus the mirror) into your office area - to the left of your desk, against the wall - and pile files, books, plants etc on it? You could hang pictures on the wall and it would look fabulous!
