Well the move is officially over. It was rough and I am glad it is done. However, the new place is amazing. It feels like home instead of an apartment
which is nice as I have yet to feel like I was living in a home since I moved
out of my parents’ house six years ago.
I will be sharing pictures soon.
The layout is completely different than anything I’ve had before so it’s
taking some tweaking to get everything right but so far all the furniture is in
place!
As for my list for the weekend I crossed off quite a few
things…
…Celebrating Father’s Day and my Mom’s Birthday since my
parents will be in town
…Finish the move!!
…Go see Rock of Ages (Does anyone else think this looks
insanely good?)
…Get the kitchen completely unpacked and functional, I hate
not being able to cook or at least make a salad and know where a fork is
…Start working on getting the gallery wall rehung
…Potentially a cookout on Sunday!
Some things were completed some things weren’t, but that’s okay. I plan on taking my time to get this
apartment together. The last time I
moved I rushed to get things decorated, bought a lot of things I didn’t love
and ended up changing everything. This time around I plan on taking my time
and making sure I love something before going forward with it.
One thing I am really excited about doing is creating an inspiration/mood
board to cover the shelving on the built in desk. I never use the desk and I hate the look of
it so I figured this time around (I had one in my last apartment) I would cover
it up completely. The picture at the top
of this post is my inspiration. I just
need to figure out where I can find a piece of cork or canvas large enough to
make this project possible! I’ve heard
that ceiling tiles work great for this type of project so I will have to see if
I can get my hands on some of those.
Anyone else ever create a large scale inspiration board or something similar to it? How did you do it?

p.s. Rock of Ages was awesome, if you like musicals go see it!
