So I've been meaning to post pictures of our apartment ever since we moved in. Here she be! It's a 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment, and we didn't realize that we had so much stuff until we moved in! Here is our living room. . . complete with exercise bike and computer chair.

And then we have the kitchen. . .

That closet in the back of the kitchen is really our laundry room/pantry/water heater closet:

Our "dining room" barely fits our table. We love that our microwave won't fit on the kitchen counters so we stick it on the table.

I'll refrain from posting pictures of the bathroom, no one wants to see that. But to give you an idea, this is the one and only sink and the accompanying countertop space. How is a girl supposed to do her hair?

And the cupboard underneath the sink gets full just storing toilet paper and cleaning supplies! So here is my genius idea for storage in our tiny bathroom:

Voila! An over the door shoe rack that holds hair products, make up, brushes, aftershave, curling irons, etc. It really has been a life saver for us. I don't know what we'd do without this.
Lastly we have the bedroom. Yes that's a suitcase next to the bed, pretending to be a nightstand. And that huge pillow was a Thanksgiving sewing project with my mother-in-law. We made it with leftover scraps from the quilt we sewed together over the summer.

So this is home! Well, for another 2 or so weeks. We're expecting to close on our first home within the next 14 days. :) Pictures to follow. But first, check out my domestic skills. Homemade wheat bread, yum!
You're buying a house!! That's awesome! What city is it in?
ReplyDeleteBeaverton-Aloha area. We're super excited! How are you and Alex doing?
ReplyDeleteWoah this is looking good! You look more moved in than when we were there :) Congrats on the house! What exciting news!
ReplyDeleteI like your apt! I'm jealous of your kitchen... it's so big! I'm sure you're house will be way better though. From the pictures I've seen it looks a lot nicer. Plus it's yours... no more renting. Major jealous here.
