Any west elm shoppers?

 

Moving to a new apartment & purchasing all new furniture.

west elm was my choice.

I feel like that episode of Friends when Rachel furnished her 

apartment w/ everything Pottery Barn...and Ross said it looked

like Page 72 of the catalog.

 

Yep...that be me.

I have purchased from West Elm, it was a few years ago.  I need to take a look again and see what they are offering.  Contrats on your new apartment...it will be fun decorating your new digs.

@sidsmom   How exciting for your, and new furniture.  Hope the move goes smoothly and that you settle in quickly and comfortably.  It's always so nice to have a fresh start and West Elm carries nice lines of furnishings.

I like Pottery Barn as they offer different styles.  My bedroom dresser and nightstand are from Pottery Barn and then I bought an iron contemporary bed from Crate & Barrel at an amazing price.  West Elm is very modern furniture and part of the PB group along with others.  Have fun decorating.

Overall, not a fan of West Elm. Too contemporary a vibe for me, but how fun to decorate a new place from scratch. Enjoy!

That's great news, @sidsmom 

I remember that Friends episode, and now, whenever you come home, you'll have that happy Friends vibe surrounding you but in your own West Elm version.

 

Here is a small housewarming bouquet for you that seems to echo the modern look of West Elm and I hope fits right in!

@GingerPeach 

Thank you, my friend! 

Beautiful!

 

Another Friends moment was when Phoebe went over

to Ross’ new apartment...bringing housewarming gifts:

 

(opening door)

 

Ross:

Hey!


Phoebe:

Hey! I brought you some housewarming gifts. Yeah!

Salt, so your life always has flavor, bread, so you never go hungry,

and a scented candle for the bathroom, because, well, you know.

I will leave all the bathroom accessories to your own discretion, @sidsmom

@sidsmom How fun to start fresh. I’m still trying to figure out how to use decor I’ve had for decades, lol. Why can’t I just get rid of it!! West Elm has some beautiful things.
