So there's not to much new to report on the condo. Since all the papers have been signed, we're just waiting on them to do the renovation. We'll probably go check on progress in a couple of weeks.
What's nice about having 3 months before we move is that I have a LOT of time to figure out exactly how I want to furnish the place. And it gives me that much time to really make sure I stick to our budget. I keep finding different ways to save a few bucks without sacrifcying design. :) I really think I could have been an interior designer... but once we move and furnish I'll let you all be the judget of that.
My Ikea catalog is completely marked up with comments and post it notes! To give you an idea of what type of theme i'm thinking for the living room (b/c that's the main room we have nothing for). I'm trying to do a good combination of modern & vintage. Because the condo is this great old building that they're keeping a lot of that vintage detail, but it's being renovated so it has that touch of modern to it. Plus it's a good mix of mine and Tom's personalities (I love the modern look and he's a little more vintage). We've definetly decided on dark brown and light blue as our color palette for the living room. I think i've got everything picked out that I want, but we're going to make a trip to Ikea this coming weekend just to actually look at the stuff (b/c things often look different in a catalog!).
Now if I could only figure out what color to paint the kitchen!!!
