T's little owls finally found a home today - flying 66 miles to their final resting place in this bright and cheerful room. This vintage lamp was T's first home purchase and she is so proud of it, especially since she bargained with the owner to get a better price. The yellow coverlet was her second home purchase - making this free, but drab, couch a sunny place to sit and read.
For me the move was much easier than I thought that it would. I honestly was dreading it but with the help of her dad, and another strong man, I didn't really have to break my back at all. A bonus – we didn't have to take every load up 4 flights of steps like we did last year. Even the prediction of rain was a false alarm and the weather turned out perfect.
I called her tonight and she already has her room in order; the kitchen cabinets are filled with the pretty, colorful glassware and dishes that she bought; the bathrooms are neat and tidy - she's settled in and loving it.

If you care to visit, I, Leslye, have another blog - AutumnSun where I ramble around different paths and pleasures of my own.

Looks like she has a nice "sunny" room! It's fun to watch their very own sense of style develop!
this set makes me smile ... and remember my first apartment. glad that T is settling in and making a new space her very own.
66 miles? how lucky to have her close...owl looks comfy...does she have a roomate? summer went fast
How exciting to be setting up a place of her own! I'm glad you didn't have any back-breaking work and that everything went smoothly.
days fly by so quickly - they look comfortable in their new home and I hope Ms. T is too
What a happy little post!! The shots make me smile - what wonderful finds to make her feel at home in the new place!!
that cover is gorgeous. i wished i could just throw a cover over my couch but it has too many pillows. nice owls too they are a nice touch.
very fun! I can't believe she moved already... seems like summer just began!
My goodness, I don't know what I would do when it's time for my girl to move away.
Of course Taylor has created a sunny, happy home environment. I wonder who she learned that from?
