unfortuntately, my vintage chandelier has not arrived yet. i was hoping to show pictures and cannot wait to see it in person. the wait is killing me!
i headed back over to ikea to return a couple things and took another look in their showroom for inspiration.
i still like this alvine rand rug, but i just don't think it will work with my decor.
i popped over to see their selection of bar stools. what do you think of the ingolf in white?
it's not chippy, but it does have a much better price.
i also spotted the henriksdal, which i like in the birch/white or birch/linen combo (again, good price point but not sure if it is too modern for me):
well, i'll just need to decide by the time i go back to get a daybed... which is in about a month or so.
today, i managed to do a ltitle more packing and unpacking. here are a few snapshots:
a cozy pile of pillows
they're just waiting for a daybed... :)
my vintage patio chairs. i can't wait to jazz up my outdoor space with a little table and some pillows, and maybe a couple glasses of lemonade?
craft closet! it's only just the beginning here...
i love organized craft supplies. i found this fun rag shag rug from urban outfitters. it's a nod to vintage, without the wear.
labels keep all the drawers organized. then i have my sharpies sorted by color in vintage soda bottle glasses.
pictures waiting to find a home on the wall.
the art prints are mostly vintage, but the cat eating a piece of cake is from etsy seller amberalexander and can be purchased here. then, i added my own frame. i love her whimsical artwork and have purchased quite a few. highly recommend!
unpacking in the kitchen
laundry linen closet:
and finally, deciding on some lampshapes. i'll share my final choice along with the base... as soon as i make my mind up. such a tough decision!
how was your weekend? any luck with the j.crew extra 20% off or the final days of the anthropologie free shipping?
until next time,
S
I love the pictures of your apartment! You have some great stuff and seem super organized (an envious trait!). I like the miss swiss dress from below, the belt goes perfectly!
ReplyDeleteThese pictures are such a tease! I can't wait to see how things shape up in the coming weeks. I have the henriksdal bar stools in black and really like them.
ReplyDeleteminnesota maven - thanks! it helps to have enough time to do the move more thoughtfully. i really like the dress too. i am excited to figure out some other ways to wear as well.
ReplyDeletefallon - i am getting excited to see how everything comes together as well. it definitely is a process that unfolds. though i love the plan, i like when things just come together organically too. good to know about the stools! i always pick form over function, but i do want them to be comfortable and the henriksdal ones certainly look comfy!
