Well since Jamie’s been posting so much lately I figured I should take a turn at writing a post.
Yesterday the couch that we ordered from The Sofa company in May was finally delivered. The fabric we wanted was on backorder until this month, but I was offered two free couches from a co-worker, so we decided to just wait it out instead of switching fabrics. Today Jamie and I tried taking some nice photos of our apartment that I’m sure many of you have been waiting for. Remember to click on the image for a larger view.
So, welcome to our home:
I merged four different exposures together for this photo, I love the way it turned out.
From left to right:
TV – Free (Found in trash)
TV Stand – Free (also found in trash)
DVD Stand – Free (Thanks Aaron)
Table Lamp – Free (…..found in trash)
Love Seat – Free (from co-worker)
Pillows – $10
Red Coffee Table – $50 (From craigslist)
Modern Floor Lamp – $30 (Wal-Mart)
Calling this place our home: Priceless
These are Twiggies. Jamie found the idea online, so we bought some yarn, found some sticks, and now we have an awesome centerpiece for our coffee table.
Here is our dining table and art studio. We got pretty much everything in this photo from craigslist.
Jamie and I livened this letter holder up by covering it in thick wrapping paper and sealing it with mod podge. It turned out fantastic.
Our kitchen is just the right size for the two of us to cook together.
We have every appliance you can think of.
Here is our bathroom. The cabinet above our toilet helped so much. I don’t know where would would be able to store any of our bathroom stuff without it.
And here I am putting it together 2 months ago.
Hanging on the wall is our soon to be available on etsy bathroom art print designed and hand printed by the Pair of Pears.
(Yes, we even love typography in our bathroom)
If you read our blog consistently, you’ve already seen this image.
But here’s what it looked like when we got it on craigslist for $8.
Don’t be fooled though, Jamie did her fair share of the work too :).
Since then we bought this ikea bookshelf on craigslist.
And that is our home. Feel free to drop by anytime, but give us a call so we can get you a parking pass.
