Household Dreams
7:42:00 PM
So today I am going to take everything down a different topic than I usually talk about, household furniture/storage/devices. My sweeties and I are moving into a larger apartment soon and there are things we are looking to get rid of like my super large modern wardrobe and victorian couch and old/broken vacuum. Of course trying to downsize the things we don't need, as most people who move often are familiar with when you realize where all the crap came from. Its crazy to see just how much stuff you accumulate in a year or so. You don't think its so much until you have to move and then BAM you've got a million boxes filled to max! So of course I have been looking at replacing things and adding other new things because OF COURSE!! DUH! =]
This couch from West Elm is EXACTLY what I want. This mid-century modern style is perfect for our modern vintage eclectic design. I totally made that up!
OH MY GOODNESS! I have wanted a Dyson vacuum for like ever and then of course I want the cordless version. It is super light weight and cleans like a crazy dirt eating monster. My parents have one so I am not just going off of what the websites and other commenters. Personal experience with a product = 100 times better than any other critics advice.
I have storage under my desk similar to this type of storage but it is old, plastic and broken at this point after owning for at least 10 years now maybe even longer! Yikes. This filing cabinet from CB2 is modern and the white version (they have other colors) matches the tv stand/credenza that we bought at IKEA. I especially love that it has wheels so I can move it anywhere I want.
I found this awesome idea on A Beautiful Mess from a picture I saw on Google a while back. I would LOVE to be this crafty, but I would probably cut a finger off. Though that is why I have a crafty family for and hopefully my Daddy loves me enough to make this for me. I would also probably paint it white or keep it the natural wood color.
Do you guys have any upgrades or new toys for the house that you want???
