I know this has been long overdue, but I am finally ready to show you some more pictures of our apartment – post-move in!
There are still a few things that need to be changed/purchased, but we wanted to wait til after my parents’ visit. I’d really like to get a papasan chair or extra love seat for our living room, but since we’re going to be sleeping there while our guests are here, I came up with a temporary solution: a seating corner made out of our old futon mattress and some pillows.

I love the hardwood floors, all the windows and the abundance of natural light, the built-in closet and hutch. Obviously, there are still some improvements to be made, but I am so, so much happier in this new place than in the tiny apartment that we lived in before.
What do you think? :)

August 22, 2011 at 11:04 amAh, that new home looks so comfy and pretty. There is so much light, I love how friendly it looks. :)
That little corner in the living room with the blue sofa is adorbs – I would crash down there instantly.
I really believe it when you say that you feel totally at home there.
Here’s to a happy week. xo.
