Let the Furniture Shopping Begin

Now that my family is moving up in the world and has left apartment living behind, we are excited with the prospect of more space to live in and enjoy. And more space, means more furniture shopping for this lady! 

Hello Craigslist, my name is Amanda and I will be stalking your Las Vegas listings.

Only 1 day in the house and I've already hit the jackpot! I came across an AMAZING mid century sofa for our loft area. We want to make it into a reading room setting, so a large bookcase is in order- but for now this cozy sitting area will most definitely do :)


 Here is an up close shot of the gorgeous upholstery, a raised floral pattern in hues of blues and greens with a backdrop of linen. And I've already snuggled in it while the girls where napping- getting my knit on ;) 

Not only did we snatch the sofa, but we bought this awesome retro Magnavox record console from the same lady; who has a pretty incredible house may I add. The record player/speakers don't work anymore so we are using it as a TV stand, snazzy eh?

well i'm off to find a bookshelf and dining room table
