A bit about our new place...
Our apartment has zero storage space. NONE. It's a fabulous apartment, but is not functional. It's an old historical building--there are NO electrical outlets in the bathroom, NO counter space in the kitchen, a shower meant for an 85 pound person, and a gorgeous 100 year old Italian chandelier that an electrician has tried to hang for the past 3 days because the wiring is so old. These are the sort of things you figure out after you've moved in of course. But, it's a home--hallelujah it's a home!
Thank the good Lord my husband is a super handy man. He built our bed frame from cabinets and plywood we found at a thrift store and painted them. So now we have storage and a cool bed.
Don't mind the stuff around the bed....but don't those cabinets look awesome?
P.S. I haven't had the time to catch up on your blogs...but I will as soon as I can. Thanks for sticking around and leaving your comments.

He BUILT that? It's gorgeous! Hope you are happy in your new place! My husband and I are now (by choice) unemployed and we don't know where we will live or what we will do, going along for the ride :D
