{ currently coveting }


{ decorating with chevron* and a beloved whale pillow }

I'm not sure what's more overwhelming: packing up to move or unpacking once moved in. It's amazing how much stuff one gal can accumulate - and it's slightly embarrassing when the majority of it falls into one of two categories: books or clothes. After a week of tripping over boxes, Dave and I made it a priority to head to the Chicagoland IKEA for bookshelves, an ottoman (which has become Bacon's favorite perch) and a dresser. We didn't come home with a dresser this time, but the DoubleTree's warm cookies more than made up for it.

*The grey pillow covers were purchased on Etsy and the navy pillow is by Twinkle Living.
