Living Room Reveal

From A:

It's been a productive week around the condo.  We:
  1. Removed the last of the moving boxes and packing paper from the living room.
  2. Moved the rest of our "stuff we don't use regularly but will still probably use at some point" stuff into our storage cage (have I mentioned this wonderful surprise yet?).
  3. Found out that the rest of our furniture should arrive by the end of the month (hooray!).
So, time to tell the storage cage story.  When we rented our condo, we knew there was an outside storage area off our back patio, but we didn't know about any other storage.  Once we moved in, there was an extra key called "upper storage" which confused us.  As it turns out, it's the key to a storage cage on the floor above our condo - awesome, right?!  This storage cage has proven to be a huge help for storing sports equipment, holiday decorations, extra boxes, etc.  I don't know how all our stuff would have a home without it!

And now that our living room is box free, we're excited to reveal the finished product.  The couch and rug are new but everything else came with us:


The photo makes the walls look really bright, almost a "grinch" green, but it doesn't look quite as bright in person.*

Overall, things are coming together.  Once our sleeper sofa comes we can finish the office and once our bedroom furniture comes we can finish the master bedroom.  More room reveals to come!

*Reminder: we didn't pick the wall color - it's what the owner had when we moved in.

  1. Wow, that looks really good. Honestly I think that your decorating makes the green work.
