Three months.
That's how long Joe and I have called Philly home. That's also how long it has taken for me to feel like our apartment is "ready" to have pictures taken of it for the blog.
***Side Note*** To be fully honest, nothing has changed about the apartment in at least a month, it's just been messy and I finally had a chance to do some much needed tidying up since I had the day off today ***End of Side Note***
I keep thinking that there is more that I need to do (eg: hang some curtains, get some throw pillows) before giving ya'll an apartment tour, but where I live is always a work in progress. I'm sure the day we move to our next apartment/home I'll feel like I never *finished* this one.
That said, the apartment definitely looks more complete than the
last time I posted pics (from Joe's tour in April).
So, without further ado, La Casa de Brier:
***Side Note*** I clearly have NOT figured out how to use my fancy camera. Apologies in advance for the lighting issues. Adjusting the white balance would have done a world of good haha ***End of Side Note***
Kitchen/Living Room/Dining Room:
|
Notice my LOVE picture from this post? Also, I got that rug in the clearance section at Crate and Barrel for just $20! |
|
Couches were found at thrift stores. The red stools were white stools that I bought on Craigslist and painted. |
|
You can tell from this picture that we love our wine ;) and we also like to cook. Way too many gadgets to fit in the cupboards. |
|
This is Buster's favorite spot on the couch. We call it his kitty position. |
Entry:
|
I am proud of the entry because I hung that purse hanger thingy on the wall all by myself! I also painted chevron on two canvases to add a little color to the entry. |
Bathroom:
|
Not much to say about a bathroom. But now you see where my dreaded scale is. |
|
I love rubber duckies |
|
Further proof |
Joe's Office:
|
The room I've lost my hubby to. He loves having his own space. See his white coat!? |
|
Have to have some dental stuff here. I found that pillow at Ikea and Joe painted the tooth on a canvas. |
|
This is where you'll find Buster any time I am at work and Joe is studying |
Bedroom:
|
See! I also have my own space :) I haven't done nearly enough crafts yet to warrant a craft area, so I'll need to step it up :) |
|
Notice Buster's hoodie in the upper left corner? Just wait until I get some pics of him in it this winter :) |
|
Yay! A TV in our room! We didn't have one in our last place, and we don't have cable connected now, but it is still nice for watching movies |
And there you have it. Our home sweet home :)
Love the red stools!
