Being an apartment family with an apartment dog, I know first hand how challenging it can be to make a rental look great and reflect your own unique style. I’m always combing Pinterest and home blogs looking for inpiration. My dreams are usually bigger than my budget, which is why I am SO excited to be partnering with Apartment Guide to help spread the word about their ‘Your Picks. Your Place.’ Sweepstakes!

Papa was busy, but Daisy and I got together and decided that for the Dining Room round of voting, the Coastal Escape fits our family personality perfectly!
