Home Sweet Home

YAY! so we FINALLY got our apartment almost the way it will be when we are done with it. haha. These pictures were taken just before we found out we would be getting a matching loveseat to go with the couch. It should get here next week and I'll post more pictures then. It will be really nice when we do get it so we will have more seating for when people come over :D

Let's start with the kitchen!

The white door is the entrance to our apartment. To the left is our laundry room closet thing. lol I didnt take a picture of it because it isnt interesting :D What you see in this picture is our fabulous kitchen cart that John and I put together. It provides us with some pantry space since we dont have a pantry. So part of our food is in there and part of it is in the laundry closet on the shelves. The kitchen cart is bamboo-so it goes with a lot of our stuff well :D The floor is also this really pretty tile that I like a lot.

Here is the rest of the kitchen! It's actually pretty big for how small our apartment is!

This is me trying to get all of the kitchen in one shot- kinda hard. lol

Alrighty, so that is pretty much it for the kitchen- here is the living room! this is a shot from the kitchen...ps. i LOVE ceiling fans! oh and the blinds you see- you can pull them either up or drop them down. pretty cool :D

Here is our comfy couch! It's that microfiber type of material and is also a pull out queen bed- so if you are coming to visit this year- this is where you would sleep :D

Here is my attempt at getting as much of the livingroom in one shot as possible :D Depending on how bit the loveseat is- we are going to try and put it where that chair is. and move the chair to the other side of the coffee table. All of the furniture they got us is really nice- not all my favorite taste- but it's all really nice. We threw in the tree because it looked empty on that side of the room. haha. You can also see the coffee table in this shot- it's really neat- the top slides open so we are able to use the inside for storage!


And of course our wonderful entertainment system! :D Our living room wouldnt be complete without it :D and you KNOW we were watching football! haha I also forgot to mention the floors- they are all wooden. it's really nice. so the only carpet we have is the throw rug in the living room and the bathroom and kitchen mats. I wasnt sure I would like it- but I do. It makes it look fancy. lol
Moving on to the bedroom...

To door you see the right is the door that leads to the living room, what you see in front of you is a bookshelf. it's slanted so it wont hold a lot, so we just put decorative things on it.

On the other side of the door that leads to living room is Johns desk :D it fits perfectly!

Next the desk is our dresser and our mounted TV for the room. They provided this TV for us and it is AWESOME having it in the bedroom! In previous posts I talk about staying in bed and watching football- well this is what I watch it on :D

Here's the bed, it's kind of in a nook- but it works for us. You cant see the bedframe but it has 3 draws on each side of it for more storage. The university was really good about getting furniture that would provide storage space since there isnt a lot in our apartment.

To the right is our ONLY closet in the apartment. We've made it work. lol

Here is my attempt at a picture of the whole room. lol The desk chair gets in the way some, but i'd rather have it than not. I thought all our furniture in the room would make it look smaller, but I think it actually makes it look bigger. lol.



And last but not least- our bathroom... Starting from when you walk in the door, here is our sink and you can kinda see the other side through the mirror. I think the drawer thing under the towels is ugly and does not match any of our stuff. It does help with storage- but very ugly. lol

A little bit more of our bathroom. I got rid of our white bath mats. who does that? who buys white. silly me. So we got brown this time. lol our shower curtain hooks and stuff on the counter match :D

Here is the other side. Again, ugly cabnit thing. but I LOVE the picture! a friend of mine painted it herself and gave it to me for my 22nd birthday :D Thanks Michelle! I told you I would put it up! it matches our bathroom perfect so we put it in here :D

My attempt at the whole bathroom :D
And that's it for now! Even though it's kinda small and we dont have a ton of space- we LOVE living here:D So if you ever want to come visit and stay- we dont have tons of space, but can make it work and would love to have you! :D
