Snapping out of it…
So I’ve decided to snap out of it. One of the biggest upsets is that we’re waiting an extra month to move. That’s an extra month in limbo. I don’t do well in states of limbo. I’m too much of a control freak. I like to know what’s happening, when, and how. I ask a lot of questions in every aspect of my life. I like to be “in the know.”
Anyway, so I have to wait an extra month to move. It isn’t going to kill me. I’ll survive. In the meantime here are some things I’m thinking about for the new apartment.
Living Room/Common Area Plan:
*
Why YES Ikea, I AM thinking about getting a sofa bed. Thanks for asking!
*
Especially one with storage underneath!
*
I’m leaning towards getting the tan one above, although we’re planning on painting the common area robin egg’s blue in the new place. The sage green one looks pretty great with the blue wall behind it, but it also has to go with my existing blue chairs.
*

These are my blue chairs! Well it’s only one of them, but I have two!
They’re a little darker than this. I’m getting rid of a lot of stuff, but THESE are non-negotiable. I think they’re so incredibly gorgeous. I can’t wait to display them properly in the new place.

There is room for my stainless steel hutch! I don’t have to get rid of it.
I’m going to put it in the eating nook off the kitchen and use it as a bar. I’m going to FILL it with Bombay Saphire Gin, because it’s beautiful and my roommate won’t drink it! He hates gin. SCORE!

A little art for the room.

Some more art.

I know what you’re thinking. That’s a lot of blue! I know it is, but I’m leaving most of the walls white with one accent wall of light light blue. My tv stand and new tv are both white. The drapes will be white. The floor is wood and will ground everything. The couch will probably be neutral too…unless I decide to go with the green one! Hah! I can’t wait to put my plan into action.
Next up: Bedroom Plan!
