This flickr user reminds us that just because you have a mini-me sized Tokyo apartment, doesn't mean you can't make it cute!

It's a little shameful to admit that my bedside table is a packing box from a year ago when I first moved to Tokyo.

    How totally gorgeous.
    It's always inspiring to see what people can do with so little room and wall space. Love that she moves her things around to keep it fresh!

    It's okay, we moved in to our current house four years ago and my bedside table is still essentially a box of stuff.

    I was thinking..hmmm those photos look familiar...then I realize that I read her blog too! What a small delightful blogging world we live in. Don't worry half of my apartment is still full of boxes too.

    Sometimes I wish I could get rid of all my stuff and start over in a small, spare space like this. Having a baby makes it a little harder, though.

    Interesting how you make your Tokyo Apartment so creative! I find the limited space so difficult that my room ends up so cluttered.
