After Photos

As promised: after pictures! I realized once I had uploaded these that it really would have been a good idea to look at what photos I had included last time and try to mimic them. I think just use your imaginations and you'll be fine!

My room, now purple, with Moxie on the bed.

Dining room, with art, and the avocado green table I made Britt move from UT to MN.

This is the heater that heats the whole apartment. We call it the fire breathing dragon.

View into the dining room. My desk to the right.

Britt's room, now blue, viewed from the shared closet.

view down the hall into the kitchen.

kitchen!

Kitchen, plus the new tea cabinet between the window and the door.

Bathroom, now blue and white (with purple trim on the door). 

Before Photos

Well it's been a while! I've not got really good excuses, except that I moved to a new apartment with Britt and we had a fair amount of cleaning and painting to do. We have finished (finally!) and are loving our new place. We're just outside downtown, and are having fun exploring the area. We have good freeway access, and easy access to other fun parts of the city. We do miss having grocery stores nearby (our last apartment, it was 4 blocks to the nearest grocery), although I should admit that Whole Paycheck is within a half mile. It's just not really useful for us!

Plus as I mentioned in my last post, months and months ago, I was working on some awesome life changes, which I will totally dedicate another post to, along with an "after" photos shoot of out apartment, since it now looks friendly and welcoming and like us.

Here's our before pictures:

Entry way, view straight through to the kitchen

My room - the first thing to go was the blanket/curtain.

Dining room view through to kitchen

Our friendly black wall - we think to cover graffiti?

Kitchen sink, with our water heater to the left

GAS STOVE. And a pot rack made of a footboard.

Bathroom painted in U of Minn colors, including the ceiling

Kitchen entry, with Britt's door open

Britt's room. Black with white trim, it was actually the best looking room.
