Children's book artist Makenzie McCarthy transformed her bland Portland apartment into a lively home that reflects her personality and experiences. Despite the apartment's sterile initial state, she incorporated sentimental objects and a functional art studio, creating a space that is warm and inviting. Her love for travel is showcased through personal mementos, making the space unique. By blending her artistry with thoughtful decor, Makenzie emphasizes the importance of collecting meaningful pieces over time to create a home filled with memories and joy.
My best advice for decorating a space is to collect pieces you love over the years. Your space will mean more to you, I promise.
Even though Makenzie is just renting the space, it feels less like a cookie-cutter apartment and more like a home because of her thoughtful inclusion of sentimental objects.
