Next month I'll be moving to a new apartment. It's a little bittersweet to be leaving my first Chicago home but I'm really excited to have a little bit more space and a dishwasher.
I've been having fun on Pinterest dreaming up decorating ideas and finding furniture I can't really afford but would love to buy. I have purchased a few decorative pieces to spruce up my new abode, including a clock and a fun motivational print for my gallery wall.
An added bonus to moving at the end of the month is that my dad will be coming out to visit/help me. He drove cross country with me when I moved to Chicago two years ago and has yet to come for a visit. Plus, he'll finally get to meet the little baby muffin (aka: Harper) in real life.
While my dad's here we're going to catch a Cub's game, eat Italian beef sandwiches at our favorite place, and go on the lake and river boat tour. It's going to be one busy, fun weekend.
My mom was sweet enough to order me some moving boxes from Costco. This weekend operation packing will commence.
Here are a few images and a DIY project that are inspiring me as I plan my new space. Enjoy!

Ah fun! So exciting that you're moving to a new place. I love all of the bright colors in these inspiration photos. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat area of the city will you be living in? I've been wanting to move to Chicago for years and have started looking at apartments recently but it's hard to decide what neighborhood would work best. I'm thinking maybe lincoln park? Maybe old town? Gold Coast would be amazing too but it's probably too pricey. So many options!
