welcome home!

finally we moved! i'm so excited to have a place to call home. as most of you know i had an intense surgery done so there are still some finishing touches that need to be done but i had to share the early stages. what i love most is that each room has it's own mood and theme but one thing each room does have in common is love. every piece in our house was hand picked by the 2 of us so it's very personal and warm. when it came picking out pieces it was love or hate...i loved it and he hated it or vice versa so when we finally agreed on pieces we had to get it! 

a look into our living room. a double sided chaise sofa makes for extra cozy nights in. and jack made the coffee table.

the art above the sofa holds a special place in my heart. it's a picture of me that my dad painted when i was a child. and two very welcoming throw blankets.

the only part of the kitchen that belongs to me, the coffee corner. a french press, a keurig, personalized mug, cafe bustelo, simple syrup, and all the coffee essentials.
