A Little Bit of This a Little Bit of That

This here is a very random post.  I just have a couple quick things that we have done lately that I have not shared.  What better time then now?  Am I right?

First up the fan in my art room has changed again.  We now went from this…

To this…

The white fan just fits better in this room.  The brown fan was nice, but it was too dark.

Want a side by side?  Finnnne…

I just think it fits better in this space.  This room has a lot further to go, slowly but surely were making our way.

One other quick thing I did was move the guest room around a bit, before it was looking like this…

Now here is it’s new set up…

Basically, I just added our TV stand and TV, and moved the bed to the center of the room.  I put the two stools on each side of the bed to be used as night stands.  This room now feels more balanced to me.  Eventually I would like to get a nice antique dresser to put across from the bed instead of our old TV stand, for now it works though.

So these are couple little things I wanted to share.  Thanks for reading folks!

TV console and TV upgrade! Woot woot!

I sent a text to Justin while I was home on lunch the other day with this photo attached…

I think I wrote something sarcastic like ” The TV is really close to the couch”  Or “I can see the show perfect from here.”  So pretty much I was making fun of how hard it is to see the 36 inch TV we have in our living room.  It was totally fine in our apartment but with how big this room is it makes the TV so far from the couch on the back wall.  PS if you didn’t notice Zack likes watching TV too.   So Justin and I decided it was time to get a bigger console and TV.  I started searching for a new console that was wider than 55′.  I found this one at American signature…

But I didn’t think it was quite big enough, also I wasn’t really liking the price.  So I started checking craigslist daily for TV consoles and found a couple that I liked.   I ended up find one for $100 and when I went to take a look at it, it was the perfect size.  Also it is solid wood and matches our coffee table and end tables.  It was meant to live in our home.

So after checking it out I purchased it and brought it home.  Don’t worry I didn’t go alone, I brought my friend Janine.  I know craigslist can be sketchy,  I am not trying to get murdered.  So I am more than happy with how much better this console fills the wall.  I then came home the next night to find that Justin had also made a purchase.

Woo hoo! A 55 inch TV to fit on our awesome TV console.  I will now be able to see the screen from the back couch!

I think he’s excited.
