How To Low-Key Use Your 'SpongeBob' Obsession To Decorate Your Apartment

Like most of my fellow '90s babies,  I watched a lot of "SpongeBob" back in the day.

In fact, I still binge-watch way more "SpongeBob" than I'd like to admit.

However, now that I'm an adult and whatnot, I try to keep my OD "SpongeBob" obsession a bit more on the down low.

If you also happen to be low-key obsessed with this silly, yellow sponge, you can head down to Punta Cana and immerse yourself in all things SpongeBob by spending a few days in a pineapple-shaped villa that's lit AF.

But if you're not down to shell out $4,000 per night to live in SpongeBob's pineapple pad, don't worry.

You can still embrace your beloved sponge on a meager fry-cook salary by thinking outside of the box and using a little *imagination* to turn your apartment into a Bikini Bottom abode.

Before you whip out the fugly "SpongeBob" comforter that's been stashed under your bed since the fifth grade, it's important to remember that we're all, in fact, adults now, so we should probably decorate our apartments like one.

Check out the pictures below to see all of the ways you can subtly deck out your apartment in sophisticated "SpongeBob" decor:
