I absolutely LOVE apartment living. We are centrally located to just about everything and the amenities here suit us just well. At this point in time in our lives, and especially in mine, I have no desire to buy a home or even live in a house. Been there! Done that!
Yes, my home is usually uncluttered and clean; unless I’m purging or rearranging. This is something that I learned from my mother. Even when my (bonus)children lived with us full time, they had their own space which they had to keep clean or stuff went to the trash. Considering we don’t have as much space now, the kids play in their room which they have to clean up before going back to their moms house. Age by Age Chore Chart
I did a bit of a change to our home which was way out the norm for me. I’ve always been into richer tones like reds and browns. I went with hues of blue for this makeover. I still have a few things I’d like to buy/add but in all due time. For now, I’m pretty happy with what I’ve done so far.

I’m using a bookcase to hold shoes
An ongoing project
Kids bedroom. Undecided to replace air mattresses with regular beds. The kids love hanging out on the floor. I need to add curtains.
I’m going to turn this into another area for the older kids

Pretty spacious kitchen
My only dislike. The fridge.
Decent size pantry
I put up some lights so I can see at night
Decent laundry room
Looking into our bedroom
I plan on putting a large plant in the corner
The hubster lost his mancave, so he has his stuff in our bedroom. Since his big screen is in here, we watch movies together as a couple and family. The kids just pile on the bed.
Our bathroom. That white garbage can is bugging me.
Decent size closet
I use command hooks to hold my jewelry
Just about everything in picture came from the thrift store. Score!
