I am beginning a series of what I call "Choo It Yourself" posts that will highlight our attempts to update our apartment. As I mentioned in the previous post, we recently bought a couch to replace our five year old futon. I am still in shock...omg, we bought a REAL couch, our very first couch! How fabulous is that? As you can see from the photo, our living room and office area is more defined. The plants on the far left side next to the lanai (shown in the second photo) and the plant on the coffee table accent the couch very nicely. The room looks a bit darker now that the couch has blocked some sunlight to the office area. On the bright side (no pun intended), the wallpaper actually looks good with this set up. As many of you may already know, I hate the wallpaper. I just don't get the whole texture thing and not to mention the color of it. Well now, it doesn't look so bad.
CIY Lesson #1: Everything could be beautiful if you match them with the right stuff. And if you are wondering what that thing under the coffee table is, it's a Wii board :)
