Things are finally coming together around here…

You can see (below) which bare-bulb light fixture that we ended up going with. It’s the “Defiance” fixture from Schoolhouse Electric. I can’t even tell you how much we love it too by the way. It’s black enamel, and looks great with an oblong edison light bulb.

Here’s our dining space. It’s part of the main living/dining combo. I must say that I’m really starting to LOVE the apartment by the way. We are now becoming converts to “living small.” There was no reason for us to have a 4 bedroom house before. It was absolutely crazy and way too much to clean and take care of. But now, this is completely manageable. Possibly our only complaint would have to be about the size of the kitchen. (But that’s probably more Nick’s complaint than mine at this point since I don’t have time to cook very often.)

A sneak peak into our bedroom.

Do you know what I notice (apart from the overall FABULOUS NESS – looks amazing really!) is how freaking CLEAN IT IS!!!

It’s a LOT easier to keep clean now that I have so much less space to deal with.
