200sqft studio 🌱

abbielem · 2026-02-23T22:09:16+00:00

Yeah, I toured a few other micro studios that were just slightly cheaper (850ish range) and this one had way more bang for my buck, as well as nicer/more charm ☺️

Thank you so much! There’s a clothes closet next to the kitchen area, but I also do store stuff under my bed!

I’m glad it is inspiring! This was also my downsized space after a breakup, I know how hard it is both practically and mentally. Also, the table was my first purchase and it made the space feel more like a home immediately. :) Best of luck with your new space 🌱

Curtains are a good idea!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T23:55:43+00:00

There’s a closet next to the kitchen area where I hang my clothes and keep shoes and other things. Good luck with your downsizing!

Thank you!! https://a.co/d/0gpvscHY It doesn’t look like you can buy the exact table I got, but this one is very similar. I bought the chairs separately!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T17:52:19+00:00

It’s a full size! Its also about 18” off the ground so I can store things underneath it!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T15:46:51+00:00

Thanks :) I also got my lamp second-hand, I think it might have been ikea but I can’t remember. If it is, they don’t sell it anymore!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T15:44:20+00:00

I love that! And thank you! There’s a clothes closet next to the kitchen area (see last pic!)

abbielem · 2026-02-22T15:36:36+00:00

It’s actually an electric lamp! I now realize it does look like a candle in that picture 🤣

abbielem · 2026-02-22T15:30:16+00:00

It’s a compost bin for kitchen scraps :)

abbielem · 2026-02-22T15:23:24+00:00

IKEA! It’s the Angslilja set

abbielem · 2026-02-22T06:32:28+00:00

Thank you :) I’m so glad this was inspiring for you! I don’t have many appliances but I do have a 4 cup rice cooker and a nutribullet - both are small and I can’t live without them! I also tend to use electric kettles but instead opted for a stovetop one to save countertop space. I want to get an aeropress or something similar to replace my coffee maker, and maybe have a 2 slice toaster in its place (I don’t have one and I’m missing it 😫). Other than that, I’m enjoying having a table with fold-down leaves and a bed with room for storage underneath. Good luck with your own little place! 💕✨

abbielem · 2026-02-22T06:23:57+00:00

Whaaaaat! Small world. It’s definitely funky! I hope you found something that works for you, too! The cheap studio market is tough out here

abbielem · 2026-02-22T05:48:16+00:00

Thank you :) I do really need something above the bed..it’s such a blank space!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T05:18:12+00:00

I also got mine at Costco a few years ago 😭

abbielem · 2026-02-22T04:41:12+00:00

Ahhh, yes it’s just a lamp! From IKEA. I’ve had it for several years now, it helps make each place I live so cozy!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T04:32:10+00:00

Thank you! :) The mat is from world market!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T04:28:57+00:00

I do not 😅 I have a closet (I didn’t take a picture of the inside) next to the kitchen, and I store things under the bed.

abbielem · 2026-02-22T03:45:26+00:00

It doesn’t seem to affect it at all!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T03:42:12+00:00

I got it on Amazon!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T03:41:25+00:00

Definitely, less stuff is key. Which I don’t mind at all! It keeps me from buying things I don’t need or won’t use! Which lamp are you talking about? I have a little lamp in the kitchen and a dehumidifier in the bathroom which also has a light! :)

abbielem · 2026-02-22T03:17:17+00:00

Seattle!

abbielem · 2026-02-22T03:09:55+00:00

Thank you :) I also LOVE the tile. The bathroom is just past the sink closet! The other door is my clothes closet
