“Bored to Death” Apartment

I just watched the first episode of HBO’s new sitcom Bored To Death, starring with adorable Jason Schwartzman. He plays a writer/private detective. And his NYC apartment is so beautiful. (Anyone know what area of NY he lives in? Maybe Queens. I’m not sure.) Anyway, it’s gorgeous. I took a couple screencaps to show you.

Cellphone Photography: Masstown Market

So, I miss my camera so much. It feels weird, knowing that my camera is off in some far off land (Well, Toronto, anyway). I only have my cell phone now. Sheesh. But today, I was roaming around Masstown Market (outside of Truro, Nova Scotia) and I found a few items I really liked and snapped some photos. They have some really cool stuff there. Might have to pick up a few items when I go to decorate the apartment next summer.

So prettyful.

5 Museums: New York City

When I went to New York City in December, I was only there for a few days so I didn’t get an opportunity to check out all the museums I wanted. (One day…) But in this new multi-part series, here on My Kingdom, I’m going to discuss five museums in various cities. I’ll include all the museums I’ve visited (it’s a short list) and all the museums I would like to visit.

Here is the first edition of 5 Museums.

THE MUSEUM AT F.I.T.

Website http://www.fitnyc.edu
Located 7th Ave at 27th St
Price free
Hours Tuesday-Friday: noon-8pm / Saturday: 10am-5pm

I would totally love to see this, The Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Anyone who enjoys watching fashion shows on TV or flipping through glossy-page fashion magazines knows that fashion is just another art form, just like painting or sculpture. You can even take a sneak peak at their galleries online.

Lost & Found: Etsy Art I

I love the art found on Etsy. Most pieces are so unique and strange and wonderful. Here are some awesome ones I found today. To find out more about a certain artwork, click on the image.

I love black & white bedrooms.

Black and white bedrooms are so beautiful, classic and elegant. I’d love to do my future room like that. Here are some fabulous black and white bedrooms. Photos from Apartment Therapy and DecorPad.
