furniture revamp

I rearranged my place and am getting rid of the old & in with the new!

In the last 24 hours I’ve sold my couch, my dresser & my mirror! (see items) And was able to also sell my electric blanket, LIFE game, Rio MP3 player, and a bunch more between the time I had my garage sale and now. Woohoo!

I was tired of the couch I’ve had for awhile (except for that it was red, I loved having a red couch!). But I found a really nice super comfy couch that I couldn’t pass up – and albeit a way heavier couch, it has a real sofa bed pull out (instead of the foam one I had), so that’ll be good if my Mom & sister come to town – we’ll all be super comfy. Most importantly my new couch & old couch are only 76″ and in these small SF places you gotta have compact stuff!!

Which leads me to the dresser… The way I moved around my place I have a space I can fit a dresser that calls for one thats more tall than wide. I’ve had my current dresses for years, so it’s definitely time for a new one! I think I might get this Target one, because it sorta matches the “country/vintage” look I’ve got goin on in here – and if I replace the knobs on it, it’ll look even better.

That mirror I’ve had forever, and with this new dresser, I’ll probably get another little mirror that hangs on the wall above it.

I had gotten rid of 2 plastic file drawer/cart things because I bought this nice big IKEA shelf/file cabinet thing. So as soon as I get the new dresser I can put my other bookcase where my old dresser is and by then I’ll have my new couch – and wala! New refreshed little house! :)
