Hello friends! Today marks a turning point in Bluff Diaries, last chapter it featured the actual move in date. This post today,\u00a0 is about the next few days as we settled in a bit albeit with minimal furniture. We put some of our outdoor furniture in the living room until we get it in June, but did get our dining room and barstools. Got beds and nightstands, the bare minimum to stay there for a few days which was heaven. Still have\u00a0 A\u00a0 LOT to do including all bedding, tons of accessories, art, mirrors, etc…this will take (and patience on my end) as it’s trickier doing this from afar. But just to be there means so much.<\/p>\n

There are honestly so m any things I love about this house, from the openness, to how light and airy it is, the huge windows bring in a ton of sunlight and it just feels like a happy home. I love that we will use all the rooms, and that no room feels off limits, it’s a very inviting house with generously sized rooms and high ceilings.Of course I also love the palette we chose, soft creams and pale blues…very soothing.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite parts might have been going out to the porch early morning and late day….soooo relaxing. So today features how things looked the day after we moved in. I am also taking the time as I promised last time,\u00a0 to answer many questions I have gotten over the\u00a0 last few weeks. So first answers to your questions then some more progress pictures.
