We finally found a place – on the most picture perfect little block in the city! I endured over a month of Craigslist hell to find this amazing deal that suits us perfectly! Kuba Kuba and the new tapas restaurant down the street are going to be nothing but trouble.

It’s your stereotypical Fan apartment, with the long hallway on the left and all the rooms on the right. The flooring in the bathroom and kitchen are going to get an overhaul with the help of my father but, the nice big rooms will make up for it until.

I made a master list about a month ago of all the things we would need to have a well-equipped home. I’ve slowly collected kitchen gadgets and everything I would need to comfortably cook. A dream would be to have a full set of Kafuh stoneware dishes.

Well, the list just keeps growing and growing. A claw foot tub means we need a bathtub caddy. Of course, you need to be fully stocked with an arsenal of cleaning supplies. I had to get another complete set of cat needs since I’m just taking one of the kittehs with me. Closet space is going to be our worst enemy though. Seriously. I’m already researching garment racks and shoe cubbies, and hanging rods. Then, when you start digging around online, you see things you really don’t need but absolutely must have.

So friggin’ excited for you. Wonderful wonderful wonderful. I can’t wait to see pictures…!

What kind of style / decor are you going for? Or is it going to be an eclectic mix of tastes?

definitely minimalist but eclectic. He has a ton of awesome asian cabinets and chests like this. We have to work that in. I got a chocolate brown microsuede slipcover for the sofa I’m bringing so the living room will be neutral with pops of color. It’s going to be a work in progress… so much fun! Will definitely take pictures as soon as it’s all settled in!
