Lauren & I continued our Sunday brunch tradition, however we went back to our FAVORITE hipster Portland brunch place, Irving Street Kitchen, because it was SO GOOD for brunch today. This fried chicken, mashed potato egg thing may not look great but my mouth is watering! Can't rave enough :) Anyway, we all had a good time & even did a little shopping after at this store called Cargo down the street.
After brunch & shopping I finished moving all the big furniture pieces up to my new house today. Thank god for Aireanne who has gone up with me THREE times to help unpack big furniture. While planning her wedding (next weekend). Crazyyyy times.
Here are some pictures. There is still a lot to do, thankfully though, at least all the big things are done! Now I just need to go thru my boxes from Boston (5 pie plates...why?) & organize. & then, you know actually move in & stuff. I will need to buy a car first though.
Here is my coffee table before I painted it. It was a really gorgeous wood, but honestly it's like a dog crawled up on it or something (first I thought children but how could children leave deep gouges in hard wood? Unless someone let their kids play with knives/super unsafe toys I don't see how that could be possible!), I had to sand it a lot to make the top flat again. Anyway. Here is was before. It looks 100x better in these pictures then it really did, actually.
And I have been doing a lot of spray painting and then painting my night stands both of which were blonde wood. Cute, but I wanted them white/gray and luckily I found the color I wanted in my parents garage :) which was exciting.
Tiny bedroom #1, which will soon have a real mattress, but has an air mattress now just to see what size fit
Living room
There is a kitchen and bathroom as well, but they're unexciting :) Clearly there is still a lot to do, but this is certainly progress!
