wanted and so much more! The place is very well kept and the base color scheme is beautiful. After a day of living in this place with bare walls, no dining table, and a bed we decided it was time to make this apartment our home!As many of you know: Target is an amazing place! You can find just about anything for a reasonable price. So off to Target we went. We spent more money than I thought possible, and mostly on cleaning products!! As we looked at their "furniture" Hubby and I realized we could find better deals elsewhere. Off we were to Burbank just to go to Ikea!! One of my absolute favorite places to go (now that I have been
to a couple of them)! Well, we got so carried away... well, I got so carried away that we ended up buying a cart full of things as well as a furniture cart full of things. Now our only problem was fitting everything into my car! Luckily, the 6 is a hatch and everything fit (barely, but hey, who cares. It fit!!) =]Once we got home, we realized we had to put everything together ourselves, but we had so much fun doing it! After about 2 afternoons working on a dining table, 4 chairs, 2 side tables, a coffee table, a desk, a TV stand, and a 3-drawer cabinet, we can finally look at our apartment as a home! I picked everything just as I wanted it and, I have to say, I did a pretty great job!
Well, I just wanted to point out that I have 2 new favorite things to do: Cook and clean! Believe it or not, I love to clean my place, I think it's because it's MY (well technically 'our' place but who's keeping track?) place and not my parents. Maybe I have this all wrong, but I am glad I love to clean because our home smells good and is appealing to all of the senses! =]
Can't wait for my first visitors! Yay!
P.S. I'm so glad I am the one who watches the bank account and not Hubby! ;)
