getting there

getting the house together, slowly but surely. by NO MEANS is it ready to be photographed yet. there are still boxes shoved in corners, and piles of miscellaneous papers and books abound. but we are starting to at least make decisions about the baby's room, which is great.  here are two decisions we've come to:

1. crib - even though we wont really need this for the first few months i want this baby's room DONE before baby even thinks about coming down the pike

robin crib from oeuf

2. wallpaper

here is a picture of the full repeat in someone else's house, which looks so lovely

i wish we could paint our wooden floors white - but alas, we cannot so i'm going to get a nice pretty rug to cover the practically black hardwood floors.  also, i haven't made a decision on a rocking chair, but the one that strikes me the most is this one from fawn and forest (i would maybe paint the base white wsince the black makes it look kind of harsh and intense):

 we would most likely have turquoise or sea green (the color of the birds in the wallpaper) lined silk drapes, similar to shown below, but a bit greener:

here is a total overlook of the room thus far, give or take a little bit.

voila!

here's hoping it comes together.

home to hus!

here are pictures of the place we are moving. keep in mind this is the current tenant's items, we will def post pictures when we get all settled ! (hopefully it will not be 3.5 years before i get it together).  it is the top two floors of a townhouse on a quiet west village street near the river.  we are really really excited to make this place our new home.

hus to home

so on top of baby on the way, we are moving. which is GREAT. i love love loved living in our apartment, but all of a sudden it just felt SO SMALL and we just had to leave. There are so many things I will miss about this place. It is the first place that has had my heart.  Anyway, I realized I've never shown my place. I took some pictures for the listing, and while I am really not a great photographer, I think these will do just fine for now.  Either way, I wanted to show where I've lived for the past 3.5 years of my life.
