New Furniture!!!


Hey y'all, I know it's been a while since I posted anything about the house, but that's because Cass and I sort of taken a break from working on the house to have a little fun.

We're still settling in, finding a thing for every place and a place for everything, but it's coming along nicely. We went furniture shopping on Tuesday because we we totally tired of the little $20 TV stand we bought years back and we were still using the coffee table from Cass's first apartment. We've kinda moved away from the all black furniture thing, so they really didn't fit with the rest of our stuff.

Cass and I had gone to Ikea, Target, Value City, and like 5 other furniture stores in Ohio and were unsuccessful finding a TV stand that we liked. We were getting a little discouraged, but we finally went to Art Van and it was like...Dude! There you go!

We actually hadn't found a TV stand yet, but while we were in the clearance center, we found this awesome little coffee table that was marked down to like 1/4 of it's usual selling price. It's even one of those coffee tables where the top can fold up toward you. The picture will make more sense than me trying to describe it.

Then we went into the actual showroom to see what they had for TV stands and we found one that looked really nice, the color matched the coffee table almost perfectly, and the color and design of it was quite similar to the bookcase I built last year. So that turned out to be a great buy as well.

All in all, we're very happy with what we got. We think it's brought the living room up from about a 18 year old's living room to a mid-twenties person's living room.
