Christmas Wishlist & Revised Edition

1. Silhouette (I want the Silhouette Cameo)

2. Various border punches

3. Grey's Anatomy season 7

4. SB-600 External flash

5. Kindle

6. Gossip Girl season 4

That was my Christmas list before. Before I found out I was moving on my own. There are just some things you never buy for an apartment if the person you live with has them. So this is my revised Christmas list, new apartment edition.

1. Cheese grater

2. Fabric shower curtain

3. Knife block

4. Griddle

5. Broom and dustpan

6. DVD stand

7. Bucket (for mopping)

8. Water jug

9. Plastic containers

10. Couch

The couch probably should've been at the top of the list but whatever. Those are just a few of the things I can think of that I need. I'm sure there is much, much more. 

I Like Stuff

1. Papasan Chair - I'd love to have one for the baby's room or as a reading chair. 

So comfy. I've wanted one for as long as I can remember.

2. Pretty ring. This one is from Ben Moss. 

My birthstone is boring but my boyfriend's Amethyst stone is a lot prettier. 


3. The Nikon SB600
My next big photography purchase, although it will be a long long time from now. 


4. Rain boots! Fun for playing in puddles or protecting my feet from late-winter/spring weather. 
Pictured above is a Burberry boot, but I'd be happy with a cheap, solid-colored boot.


5. Grey's Anatomy - Seasons 2, 3, and 4 are all I need to have every season on DVD so far.
Currently $25 at Wal-Mart. 


6. A dinning room set - This one approx. $300 at The Brick
I'd love a set that is small enough for an apartment, 
but big enough for scrapbooking and for my family of three to eat together years down the road

7. A 9-cube storage shelf. This one is very nice. I'd settle for a cheaper one. 


8. Scrapbook storage. My stuff is everywhere.

Furniture Wishlist

I took a quick walk over to the downtown mall this afternoon to kill a few minutes. It's one of those malls filled with expensive clothing and shoe stores. A dollar store, a pet store, a discount store, etc. My favorite was Wicker Emporium, which is a Canadian furniture/decor store. I made a huge mental wish-list while browsing around.

 I'd love something like this for bathroom/laundry room storage.

They have a bunch of cabinets and such in this style that I loved. I would love to have the one above, and this one in my huge dinning room that I have now (except I'm moving in a couple months).

Or just something like this instead for the dinning room.

I love this hall table as well.

Getting away from Wicker Emporium, I saw something similar to this at Wal-Mart that I definitely want to get for my livingroom once I move.

I've never owned nice furniture. I'm fairly new at the whole "have nice place, decorate place nicely" thing. I cannot wait to get started.
