I am moving soon and I don't have alot of furniture. I was wondering, what are some things I can do to make it homey (lol) or just nice I guess. I have never ever lived on my own.. Another thing, I see there are some recipes here that sound good.. and I know there are cookbooks but could u ladies give me some ideas for spicy foods... not spicy hot, but spicy like alot of spices...

i just take lots of pics of my family and put them up everywhere!!! thats what i do and it makes a house feel like a home very quickly;)

I have a small entertainment center, well more like a TV stand, lol that we don't use anymore because we bought a bigger one. If you need one I'd gladly give it to you. I was planning on putting it on freecycle soon anyway. But to make it homey, I just put up pics and then some small stuff on the wall. The first thing I put up in all our places (and we've lived in three in the one year of being married) was always a lil wooden heart that we bought on our honeymoon and it says "Friends welcome. Relatives by appointment" lol

"Friends welcome. Relatives by appointment" lol
:lmao I love it

The first thing I do is put stuff on the walls. I can't stand to see bare walls because it never looses that just moved in feeling.

:lmao I love it

Both DH and I love stuff like that hence my bathrrom sign that says "Notice: Changing the toilet paper does not cause brain damage"

I NEVER change the roll:oops

curtains, window treatments, whatever you prefer to call them makes a big difference. Just something on your windows besides the yukky white miniblinds :puke even just a valance will do wonders.

I usually only remember when it is gone too. :lmao

you ladies are too cute! well, i have the bedroom furniture so thats ok.. when i get there i have to check into the apartment, go buy a couch and a tv, pots and pans, some dishes to last until my others get there...um, oh ya! the cleaning supplies and TOILET PAPER!...Kris, where did you get those signs?? lol I will pm u about the entertainment center..

That reminds me that I also have a TV and some othet stuff that I could loan you till you get yours.

you could also do wonders by putting some great rugs on the floor-adds color & style too!:thumbsup
