As I mentioned earlier this week, John and I have officially purchased our first home!

We will be slowly moving over the next month or so, so we’ll be keeping busy around here in the rental house we currently live in. Today I spent a few hours just organizing things we need to get rid of. It always feels good to simplify a little before you move into a new place.

Anyways, back to the house. I wanted to share the things I’m extra excited about!

This bold orange front door.

The open shelving in the kitchen.

Storage space!

This perfect-for-bubbles bathtub. 

Using this amazing stove and kitchen island. It faces the living room! I can just imagine how awesome it will be to watch Girls and cook a delicious dinner at the same time.

I plan on setting up my sewing and work station in this sunny corner.

Not one, but TWO master bedroom closets.

This funny little orange nook.

This art spotlight in the hallway. What am I going to put here?

Also excited about:
Painting walls whatever color I fancy.
Growing flowers and veggies in the backyard.
And soooo many more things.

We have just a couple big things on the to-do list:

• electrical work
• privacy fence
• buy a fridge
• oh, and move all our stuff in!

We are so excited about the possibilities in our new place. I can’t wait to show more pictures as we get settled in, and then the decorating can begin! My favorite part 🙂
