New Purchases

There was a small bazaar in Yokosuka this weekend. This is what I picked up: 1) Obi decor. 2) Nighlight for the hallway when visitors get up in the middle of the night and can't see... and for when i go downstairs and can't see.


Obi is the material that Kimonos are made out of. This was part of a Kimono. Now it's my wall decoration. I saw it and immediately fell in love with it. Plus it was "50% off" (which means the vendor just marked it up to begin with, just to make me feel like I got a deal). Their ploy worked.


This nightlight was also love at first sight. I saw it previously at another vendor, but he didn't have any unopened ones available. Out of 20 different designs I liked this one best. Even though there were many variations on pink. I just liked the fans.

So hopefully this will help Annie (and myself) from falling down the stairs.. As the Wrigleys can attest, they are tricky until you get used to them (slightly narrower and curved).


The guest bedroom and the "office" (junk) room were switched and finished before the Wrigleys got here in June. But I never posted new pictures of it.

The new Obi hanging fits in perfectly in this room! I didn't even plan it!

Also new to the household is this new desk chair.
Way more comfortable than the $10 wooden one I had before - where i felt like it would break beneath me at any moment. This blue one is nice because it a) compliments the colors of my rooms b) is cushoned c) is new!
