(finally) settling into the house
April 14, 2008 at 2:45 pm | In chatty, house crafty | 1 CommentWe moved in in late December, but this weekend was really the first time I’ve felt like we’re really settled into our house. We did a lot of rearranging and putting things up and away and now that our record player has been fixed and we can play records (yay!) it’s just feeling so great to be here… of course there is plenty left to do and not that much pre-baby time to do it in, but I am so excited to have even this much done.
We won this painting at the Buckman Bash this weekend, which was generously donated by the artist, Justin “Scrappers” Morrison — I love it! It’s already up in the dining room making me happy.
And we finally got to focus on the living room this weekend after a few months of benign neglect and it’s so great to see some favorite things again. I’ll just post a few photos for now:
collections and favorites

It’s been three years since we lived somewhere with enough space to have my favorite things out instead of mostly boxed up and I was pretty excited to unpack them and arrange them in little mixes! All the details are in the flickr descrips, just click on them to see what’s what if you’re interested.

I have a ton of stuff to do today but after I cross enough work things off my list, I plan to attack the craft room again. I had a little light bulb moment, and I’m going to try to pretty up the blah cardboard boxes that fit into an Expedit so nicely. Let’s see if it works!
