New Year & New Furniture
It is 2009, and I am back from my little break! I hope that everyone had good holidays, mine were great and it was nice to have a little break from normal life. As promised, here is a picture of the girl's apron I made for a custom order.
I think it turned out nicely, and the customer seemed pleased with it. I don't have anything new to list in my shop yet though, because I ended up giving away the new bags I made as Christmas gifts. I will just have to get started on some more new stuff!
A big project I am taking on for the new year is redecorating my living room. I got married right after college, and when we moved into our apartment we didn't have much furniture at all. We found some nice used stuff for other rooms, but the living room ended up being a collection of not so great used stuff we got for free from relatives and really really cheap stuff from Target that is now falling apart after a few years of use. The bookshelves were the worst, and over the weekend we put up new ones from Ikea to replace them. The new bookshelves are awesome, and the next thing on the list is to replace the tv stand. The one we have now is ok looking, but not really designed to hold the weight of a tv, and I want to replace it with something that isn't going to eventully break under the weight. Here is a picture of the new bookshelves with the old tv stand.
And here are some things I am considering to replace it.
This one might be too big- I need to measure.
I would cut the flat screen pannel off this one.
Any opinions? I can't decide yet. I am also open to other options, but I want to get the new one in the next week or so. After that is done the other things on the list are to refinish the coffee table, get curtains, fix or get new couches, and get a couple more pieces of art to hang in there. I am really excited to see it improve through out the year!
