Home
We have been going to many stores, many times, and have evaluated both price and design to find furniture and decorations to the apartment Issac is renting. And this is how we decided to make the apartment feel like home to us (or well mostly for Issac).
Living rom in the evening. The big picture on the wall is from IKEA. Lamp from Walmart. Sofa from an antique store in Harrisburg, and the end table, bookshelves and the glass bowl where donated to us.
Living room during the day
Dining and study place. We bought the table and the chairs in an antique store in Harrisburg too. It is actually six chairs, but we couldn't fit more than four in the truck when we moved here. So two is left at the host family's place.
A closer picture on the pictures above the table. We bought them from Lowe's (a hardware store in Philadelphia), and they were really cheap! Perfect for people like us on a low budget.
A white shower curtain was included in the apartment but we changed it anyway to a curtain we got from the host family. It's prettier!
The bedroom in the evening. The host family gave us a bed frame too, but when we where packing things and preparing to move here, we missed to bring some parts of the frame so we can't use it yet. So for now it's just box spring and mattress on the floor. (Americans always have box springs under the mattress, unlike us in Sweden who usually just put the mattress on top of the bed frame.) The mattress and the box springs we bought new for a quite good price, and the small end table we bought at IKEA. The lamp and the quilt + pillows we got from the host family, and the picture on the wall (a poster of Vincent Van Gogh's "Starry Night") we bought here in Philadelphia.
Drawer in the bedroom during day light. Bought it from the same antique store as the table.
So this is Issac's home from now on!
