Our apt/Finley's room!

I've been meaning to do this post a long time ago, but since we had Finley it's been a little bit harder. This is our new apt that we moved into about 4 months ago. It's a four-plex right next to the park and we absolutely love it! It's a mansion compared to our last apt! We love living here, especially because they let us paint and decorate it however we please! 



We love when we can find cool bargains at the D.I. and make them look cool by just adding a bit of spray paint! Our entertainment center...$8 and absolutely ugly before! $4 for a can of white spray paint and...tada!! Looks like we paid $350 at Crate & Barrel for it!



Our table...my grandparents dinner table when they first got married. We snagged it from a closet at my house in Washington. Our chairs...from an antique craft store here in Rexburg. We were going to buy them and then one of our good friends decided to buy them for us for our wedding!


Now to my favorite piece of furniture in our house. Our hutch/buffet/dresser/or whatever you call it. When we lived in our old apt the owners took us down to the basement and said we could have it. It was just plain wood until about a month ago. We debated on painting it mustard yellow, mint green or red. We decided on the red and I'm so glad we did! 

The print in our frame is actually a piece of an old rug that we had. We were foolish and thought that we could wash it in the washer and the edges came out shredded...whoops! So we decided to cut it and put it into our big frame and I'm so happy with how it turned out.





We love our new apartment so much and are so glad that we found it. Hopefully we get to stay here until we leave Rexburg!

Now...Miss Finley Sue Sue's room!


We waited for this crib to get into stock for about 6 months because we loved it so much. We decided to do her room mostly white with little touches of champagne and sage.  




A couple more cans of spray paint and our frames are all white now and our stool that we found at a garage sale is sage.


Kevin got me this chair from Ikea for my birthday while we were in Washington visiting my parents.




We were so happy with how Finley's room turned out and we are so glad that she is here! We love her so so much!

And for your viewing pleasure...our sweet miss Finley
