Starting Off on the Right Foot

I have officially made my first purchase for the Berkeley apartment!

I'd been agonizing a bit about where to start in an apartment with so many needs. The bland bathroom? The naked windows? The bare floors? The white walls?? The answer, of course, was to take a step back.

Because the flat is on the first floor, we need a doormat!

I selected the CB2 Black Crow Doormat.

Perfect for setting the tone.

You all know I can't resist decor with a gothic twist... this is a great first step to making the new place feel like home. I can't wait to hear what Adam thinks when it arrives on his (our) doorstep.
