Urban Renewal Take Over.

I'M SO EXCITED!!! The newest facet to my Urban Renewal Program got delivered today! A new TV unit!! I did a massive Happy Dance when it arrived {clapping hands and grinning widely!} It is only the 3rd piece of "Real" furniture I have ever bought! (i.e. not a put-together piece from Ikea and not gleaned off Council Cleanup or Ebay!!) It has only been here for half an hour an already it has made me happy happy happy happy!

So here are some before and after pics for you:

BEFORE: The silver shelves were only supposed to be temporary but have been my TV stand now for 2 years! How is that temporary?!! I hate the put-together shelves that the DVD's are on and my CD's are just in a box on the floor! Not too organised. It's just bits and pieces all crouching together next to the wall!



AFTER: Now everything is tucked away neatly in my new, beautiful TV unit from Everyday Living!! {doing a happy dance while sitting here}. I love the timber top and the white washed base, it's so cool and makes my brown house a little more bright! Much brighter than the silver shelves anyway! Plus it's got a big area on the top where I can put some Christmas stuff :)

I had been admiring the shelves for a few months now, and when I turned the TV on at midnight the other night there was an ad for the sale at Everyday Living. I thought it was fortuitous, seeing as they usually only have sex line ads after midnight.. this ad must have been just meant for me! So I went there and it was save $170! Bargain!! I love it!
Hope your Friday is as exciting as mine!
