Jack and I very proud of the fact that we furnished our entire home without once visiting a furniture store. Thank you garage sales, hand-me-downs, Craigslist, thrift stores, and everyone who got us wedding presents to fill up our home!
Sorry for how shaky it is! And I really did not go into detail about some of the beautiful things in our home. So I will mention a few of them:
- In our living room, the piece of furniture underneath the mirror is an antique radio we found at a garage sale. I just love listening to the radio while I work on our home!
- The rug is in our living room is probably the most expensive furniture/decor in our house, because I bought it new outside of the PX (mini-mall type thing) on post.
- In our kitchen, the canvas above the counter says: 10 18 88 / the year his life began / 12 18 90 / the year her life began / 8 3 13/ the year their life began Adorable, right? It was made by my friend, Leslie, as a wedding gift.
- There is another canvas in the hallway that has the verse "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" along with our initials and wedding date. My roommate Shireen made it!
- I would like to thank my Aunt Sarah for the kitchen table and pink chair in our master bedroom! She gave it to me in college, and now it is furnishing my home as a married woman. Who knew it would last that long?
- The antique looking mirror in our bedroom was a thrift store steal!
- The headboard we got for $15 from a family off Craigslist and the beautiful bench in front of our bed was from my Mima who gave it to my mom...who then gave it to us. :)
- The round table in our bedroom was given to me for free by my education school friend who was moving.
- Probably my absolute favorite thing is our vacuum. I can't remember who bought it for us, but THANK YOU! It is AMAZING. I LOVE THIS VACUUM. So glad I didn't register for the crazy expensive Dyson. I'M IN LOVE.
Okay, I admit, all this time alone is for real making me a little batty.
