Furnished House

Back in July, I said I'd post pictures of the house once we were moved in. Well it turns out that unpacking is a lengthy process. And then furnishing the house takes a while, too. And keeping it clean is just an endless job. But the house is finally in a state I'm proud of, mostly because I spent all afternoon cleaning so I could get some decent pictures. Anyway, this is what our house looks like now that we're actually living in it.

I got my desk set up in my office and bought a new bookcase that's waiting to be filled.


The other side of my office is my library.


Our bedroom actually has a bed, and we've got nightstands. I even added some color to the wall.


But on the other side of the room, you can see that there are still a few things I need to hang. This moving in is a long process


Downstairs we have a kitchen that actually looks like someone uses it. You can tell by all the counter space we've managed to convert into storage space.


But we still have plenty of room to work on the other counter


Our main living room is split so Kevin can use half of it as his office. We've flipped this recently, so no one's actually seen this layout yet. We also bought a cabinet to display our various chotchkies, though we need to organize it a bit better.


The reason for the flip is that we've actually begun to furnish the other side of the room. It's still a bit lacking, but I have a designated place to read now.


And in the dining room, we bought a cabinet for all our glassware. We have a ridiculous amount of glassware.


The layout downstairs has also changed a bit since we had any visitors. Mostly because we moved that green couch upstairs.


And once more, we're left with part of a room that still needs to be furnished. I'm thinking of getting a card table so I have a place to do puzzles.


It's actually starting to look like a real home. Now I just need to finish hanging pictures. In the meantime, I'm hoping I can keep this place clean.
