Do pardon the light activity around these parts this week as I move into my own little piece of New York! I’ve been saving my pennies and counting down the days for quite some time — it’s hard to believe that it’s actually happening! Yesterday my dad and boyfriend got most of the big pieces in place, which means my mom and I can get to the fun part: decorating! It’s teeny tiny — 375 square feet, eek! — but I’m smitten with the natural light and eager to create a space that works for me, my business, and my puppy 🙂 I have lots of fun projects I’m planning to tackle and I can’t wait to share them all with you! And in the meantime, if you have any brilliant tips for making moving a little less stressful, I’m all ears…
Keep up with Design Darling
Congratulations!!! I can’t wait to see your decorating process come together! 🙂
Congrats that is so exciting!!!
Looking forward to seeing your space after your projects! Congrats on the new space!
Hi! I’ve been a long time follower, you even inspired me to start my own online home decor store http://www.hattanhome.com
I lived 10 glorious years in NYC, how exciting! I’m jealous!!! Such a cute little place you found- I lived in a tiny space about that size and less is definitely more! Enjoy decorating!
Love following your story!
Good for you girl; it will so exciting to see your progress!
All the Best in the Year Ahead!

,,,congrats to you on your new abode. 375sqft makes me a little jittery but the windows allowing natural light to shine in will make all the difference. can’t wait to see how it all comes together…cheers!,,,
How fun, Mackenzie!! I can’t wait to watch you make this place your home! I know it will be lovely 🙂
Congrats!! Can’t wait to see what you do with the place!

How incredibly exciting!! So much possibly in that photo.. can’t wait to see how you make it your own 😉
Congratulations! Knowing your style, I’m sure the décor will be absolutely fabulous. 🙂
So fun!! I just recently moved out of a 245-sq-ft studio, which I surprisingly loved. Best advice? Pare down all non-essentials (I got rid of boxes and boxes of paperwork, old clothes, stuff I had saved for sentimental reasons but no longer remembered the reason…). Then add in lovely personal touches everywhere so your tiny home still feels luxurious! 🙂 Congrats!
I am going to be stalking this transformation like nobody’s biznass.
So excited for you! Can’t wait to see the final product! Thank you for also being the cutest Santa this year – I loved all of my DD stocking stuffers! 😉 Happy New Year!
Yay! Congrats Mackenzie! That’s awesome news!
Couldn’t be happier for you, sweets!! 2013 is off to a fabulous start! xx
Im so happy for you! I cant wait to see how you decorate and turn your little place into a home of your own!
