Apartment

I'm getting ready to move into an apartment, in fact I started to move in today!  I signed the papers and got the keys yesterday!  I'm so darn excited. :)   I just love the apartment and can't wait to make it mine.

Today I did something I have never done before.  I went and picked out and bought furniture!!

I figured I should start with something in the living room since I have no living room furniture at all.   I was going to get a couch and loveseat, and possibly an oversized chair, but I seen this and loved it.   It looks much better in person than in this picture, but oh well!  Since all of the walls are white, I opted for a rich, dark brown that I loved.  It's called Cafe.  I was thinking that I could accent with a teal or turquoise.  I'm not sure though, we will see what I love!

Then I was going to move the daybed and the matress that I had when I was back home....but I kinda wanted something bigger.  I was going to go for a full sized bed, and bed frame, but the mattress that I found was a queen, and it was actually cheaper than a full in the other bed I was thinking about, since it was on special.  Plus I liked the one that I got a little bit better, and it wasn't just because of the price.

ANYWAY, I found this bed that I fell in love with.  

And the the least fun of all of them is the mattress, but I look forward to sleeping on it, and not getting poked with springs like the current mattress.


Now I just need to find queen sheets somewhere for cheap.

I'm looking forward to this new adventure in my life. :)

Best of luck with your new apartment and chapter in your life.

Love that bed, especially the deep rich wood colour. Plus a good mattress can make such a difference to a nights sleep.

All the best
