Step 20: Hotel Ballroom 💃🏾 Hotel ballrooms are multifaceted in nature.  They host weddings, galas, work events, you name it. And the one detail they almost always share is a gigantic chandelier. In true me fashion, I decided my apartment needed one too. First step: swap out the old light. I found this huge chandelier on sale at @wayfair and even though we usually DIY our installs, this one definitely required a professional (thank you, @taskrabbit ) Once it was up, I spent hours clipping on crystal after crystal. Two days later, we’ve got a chandelier that feels straight out of a grand ballroom. The full room transformation is on the 2026 agenda, but she’s already looking pretty great. Just in time for our holiday party 🍸 #everylastlayer #boutiquehotel #renterfriendly #austin #apartmenthotel #austintexas #apartmentdecor #hotel #staycation #hotelinspiration #diningroomdesign
