Throwback Thursday: First Home

May 9, 2013 by Brynne Leave a Comment

Just a quick post in honor of throwback Thursday – I’ve been waxing nostalgic about our first apartment, and thought I would post a few pictures (and try out a new watermark… what do you think?):

Featuring our Lovesac couch that we managed to shove into our VW Jetta, our infamous Craigslisted leopard rug, and my labor-of-love chalkboard and French-dictionary-decoupaged mini fridge for Bryan’s homebrewing.

A side view of my gallery wall, and the tiger/zebra-print chalkboard I devoted hours to drawing.

Oh how I loved our first apartment!  I painted my very first piece of furniture, thrifted my very first vintage finds, and we made our first Craigslist purchase (the Lovesac couch) together!

We adopted our chinchilla Pocket there (and can’t wait to get him home to our new house from our awesome friends who have been babysitting him for us these last few months):

And my cat Abby, who I got as a kitten the Halloween of 2000, came to live with us! (And accessorize my rug, haha).  I can’t wait to get her from my parents’ house and let her come see the new house!

Our family will be all together again very soon, and I know we’ll make as many awesome memories in our new home as we did in our first!
