Furniture! Yipee!

As soon as Daniel and I signed the lease for our apartment, I couldn't wait to start making it our home. One of the things that makes a place feel like home to me is decorating it with your own personal touches. I absolutely love decorating.

But before you can decorate, I have discovered, you kind of need some basic furniture. So today, Daniel and I made the trek to Ikea (of course). We came home with some great stuff!

We got this darling dresser:

And this super-cool TV stand:

We also got one of those cute little $8.00 end tables that is pretty awesome too.

I still can't get used to the fact that Ikea furniture comes in these tiny flat boxes that I swear wouldn't fit half a coffee table in them. Luckily, Daniel has this uncanny talent for assembling complicated things. Just a few weeks ago, he built an entire NordicTrack incline trainer from the ground up - entirely by himself. A few drawers should be simple compared to that......right?

.....wish us luck. ;)
