My First Place

No, I wasn't featured on HGTV's My First Place(well in my dreams I was) but I as previously mentioned, I did move into my first place this past weekend and I threw out my last 2 boxes today. Whoa, now that is a record. Not even a week and I'm completely unpacked. This my friends, is a miracle. 

How bout a tour shall we? Now I am no photographer, and all my pictures are taken with my iPhone. I didn't edit them, unless you count cropping in iPhoto editing. So forgive me, but this is as good as it's gonna get. 

First, lets start with these bad boys. My parents bought these tables shortly after I was born (in the 90's people) so I like to call them "vintage" ha! Anyway, my BFF and I got the bright idea to stain them. Did ya'll know staining is really hard? We didn't. So they looked like crap, for a long time. Then my Dad generously helped me sand and re-stain them. Still not the look I was going for. So we just painted them. And now they look like this and are gorgeous for 20+ year old pieces. 

This little guy is a FOLDING table. Yes, a folding table. It looks like a real live wood table no? So it's just this little baby table that I'm going to try really hard to not become a dumping ground for all my crap.  Hold me accountable, mkay?

So this is my little office/dining/craft room :) "Carly's happy place" I like to call it. Desk and awesome folding wooden table both from tarjay, duh.

This is above my desk. How can you not be obsessed with Audrey Hepburn? I totally am. And those 4 pics are some black and whites photos of only the most important peeps to me.

So, I feel like this is getting wordy. I'll continue the tour in a different post. Don't want to bore y'all to tears now :) Kitchen, bedroom and living room to come! Happy Friday, woo hoo!
