drumroll pleasethe furniture has arrivedjordan's delivered and built our furniture on saturday!!!i was babysitting will while matt & kris were at the dance recitalso he was the first besides dan and me to see the new space ;)fortunately he's darn cute and he was wearing an outfit that not only had planes on it {which his grandfather would have love}, but conveniently he matches the color scheme in most of the house. thanks kris. fabulous planning ;)
the livingroom
microfiber sectional
two electric recliners on the left
sleep sofa on the right
matching ottoman
{curtains just don't match.. need to keep looking. oh well. without the fabric swatch it was a good attempt}
view from the future site of the new wood stove
entertainment center just begging for some company {which is waiting in the closet, for someone to help dan lift it into place}
the ottoman that we've been drooling over at Shawn & Ellen's for over a year now
then we searched frantically for a sofa that had recliners and somehow were able to STILL match the ottoman
that's fate!
removable tray
easy enough for a child :)
yes, the couch and ottoman are well spaced
enough room to walk
willy approved
the bedroom
and our very big bed!!
its way bigger than it looked in the store
pretty sure its...
partly the bed, partly the very big cushy comfy mattress we chose, and the size of the room
one thing's for sure. its wicked comfy!
willy definitely approved!!
so
much
fun
{{{{time out for a little bit of play time}}}}
sunday morning we made the bed with the bedding we could find (from storage in the basement)... there are sham ssomewhere, and some more pillows to be purchased, but its a start
under the quilt are the new organic sheets i found on sale at target!
hoping they work out well.
dan seems to be getting into the Green thing too.... today our convo went something like
me: "these sheets are organic"
dan: "oh yeah? are they made of carrots or something?"
me: "no, cotton (implied: duh) but they're natural. no pesticides"
dan: "oh good. i don't like pesicides on my skin."
EXACTLY! :)
the bedside tables are old singer sewing machines which dan fixed up and added a top to (drawers to go under the shelf are coming soon)
don't they look great?!!!
and the tv!!! not all wired up yet, but going to be great!
had to take a few minutes to put my feet up ;)
the spare bedroom
the bed has arrived
the mattress is still at the apartment
so not much more to show in here for a couple weeks
look at all the drawers!!!
i swear nothing excites me
more than storage
i am giddy just thinking of the possibilities
view from the hallway door
light green curtains match the quilt set i found.
green and yellow
still need to make sure i absolutely love it
we'll see. either way, it beats the plastic on the windows!! :)
the closet
home to everything that was formerly in a room where furniture was being delivered
new, slimline non-slip hangers were delivered
storage, organization and style
seriously! wicked excited
can
barely
stand
it
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ooohhh oooohhh
in those pottery barn bags on the floor
are new, organic towels
that i got on sale!!!
----------->
one more addition to the laundry room
this cabinet houses the fold-out ironing board i've been clamoring for
dan found this one, that fits between the studs!
so perfect
far less obtrusive than we pictured
its on the wall the borders the bedroom
right across from
the washer and dryer
so as you can see, its coming along!!!
we've got a little more than 2 weeks to pack up the apartment and get everything out of here
which frankly is freaking me out a little, but so far so good. i've been packing here and there, and its adding up fast... and now with the house looking sooo good and soo inviting, there's all the more incentive to get moved :)
wish us luck.
and the tv!!! not all wired up yet, but going to be great!
