Followup to last week's Ikea post--my couch and bookshelves showed up today! This is a big deal for me, really makes me feel like my apartment is complete. Not to mention the fact that now my friends have a place to stay when they come over . . .
It being Ikea, of course they all showed up in pieces. So clearly, the only thing to do was put on a movie and get building. I thought The LEGO Movie would be appropriate . . .
My friend Tamas asked "how many parts can a couch possibly come in?" . . . it's Ikea, Tamas |
Ahh yes, small apartment problems--where do I put this box while I put together my couch? Throw it in the loft |
Everything put together, this apartment really does feel like a home. Plenty of storage space, and a great couch to relax on. Ikea, what would we do without you?
And I got the measurements perfectly--one couch and two bookshelves, with only about 6cm clearance. Perfect!
Fits very nicely in the corner, and doesn't block any of the natural light at all |
Funnily, the room actually looks smaller in photos with the couch--of course, I got an extra wide couch XD |
Don't worry, the pantry, bar, and dishware sections of those shelves are going to get more crowded |
And with that, my couch is officially open for visitors! Although ask first--the last week in January, first week in February, and first week in March are already taken . . .
Everything is AWESOME
Noah out
