21 Mar

Our couch is the futon that my family bought when I was probably around 10.  It came to college with me, and now it lives in our apartment.  Lately I’ve been feeling like the futon’s look wasn’t doing it for me.  So we switched the futon cover that it’s had for years to one that was on it for a short period of time when it was first purchased.

The cover we switched to is kinda boring and our old pillows didn’t match, so I decided to go ahead and get some new pillows.  I’d been keeping an eye out for a few weeks, and yesterday I scored some at World Market.  Sorry for the weird pictures.  To give you an idea of the size of our apartment, it’s too small for me to get far enough away to take a picture of the whole couch.  If you could have seen me trying to take these, I’m sure it would have been pretty funny because I kept backing up into things.

Here’s the old cover (not on the couch as you can see, haha.)

… and the new/old cover with the new pillows!

Aren’t those napkins pretty?  Don’t worry, you be seeing more of those.

It felt so good to switch covers and get some color into our apartment!  Have you been making any changes to your home for spring?

    I live in a rented student house so we're not allowed to change anything – seeing so many beautiful rooms around blogland makes me really want my own place!
