Settling In

We lived with our Air BnB hosts for a week and a half in Portland before moving into our studio apartment in SE Portland. Since we drove with only what we could fit in our cars, we had a lot of DIY projects and craigslisting to do to make our apartment more homey.
One awesome place in Portland, The Rebuilding Center (http://rebuildingcenter.org), has recycled building materials. We got a door to use as a headboard and some reclaimed wood to make the footboard of the bed frame we built. 


We also built a coffee table with some apple crates.


Still more projects to go, including some bike shelves, but pretty happy with how our place is coming together! 
Oh, and pretty happy we live one block from some fantastic food trucks:
