I am really going to push myself this year to be more social–not only to get out more, but to have more people come to the apartment. Last year there were hardly any visitors, and if I’m not going to turn into a crazy cat lady hermit, I need to change that.
So I bought a chair (Thing #6) and rearranged the living room. Now guests can make their way to the seating area easily and we won’t have to sit side-by-side and try to talk.
I “cheated” on this, too, in that I picked it out online when I was making my 30 Things list, but I was going to wait to order it–until Target had a sale plus free shipping after Christmas. I do love that Target furniture.
Toby does, too.

That’s a mirror reflecting a window…and maybe I’ll have to have a chair-sitting and bookshelf-viewing party!

Looks very cozy… I need to rearrange my living room, too. I have that “side by side” problem you mention.
I’m very curious about what’s on those bookshelves… and is that a window behind them?

Thanks! What a difference moving furniture makes. 🙂

Oh how I love those chairs from Target. The room looks perfectly welcoming. I also love the blue inside your bookcases. Well done.
