Apartment 202

Yay, we have moved. I have never lived in a house that had new floor and walls before we moved in, so it is an incentive to keep things looking nice from the start. Our boxes from arrived on Thursday, and were unpacked by the lovely men from Crown Relocations, who then took away the mess. LOVE Crown. The apartment is still in a bit of chaos because we have no drawers to put things in, or shelves to put things on, so the dining table resembles a yard sale table, and the floor in the bedrooms resembles ... well, the usual floor in the bedrooms to be honest.
I want to get a couple of chests of drawers for the girls room, just plain white, like the Malm ones from Ikea. Unfortunately, there is no Ikea in Korea. For our spare/office/sewing room I want to get a big cube bookcase that basically takes up a whole wall, and can have all our books, toys, sewing stuff on it and still look neat.
For our room we already have a hanging rack down one wall, and we could probably do with one more to take all the long stuff (translation: my dresses). We also need drawers. Did I mention that there is no Ikea here?
The lounge at the moment has a very old uncomfortable brown leather couch, which will have to do for now, as we need a rug more. Mostly for noise so we don't annoy the downstairs neighbours, but also to make the space a bit more cosy.
I will try to post more photos, but honestly, I am a bit confused as to how to load them, arrange them and so on on this blog. I know it can be done, as I have discovered the world of online design blogs, and they look lovely on their blogspots.
For now, words will have to do. Sorry.
