Dear friend,
There is a grand settling in happening in a very light-filled yellow house this morning. Dishes are being put away. Kittycats are exploring. Kittycat A is busy making sure Kittycat B knows she is still the alpha-Kittycat, even in this strange new place.
As exciting as our house purchase has been, the actual move seems to have gone on forever. We just spent night #2 here. Boxes are, for sure, everywhere. Things have been especially tricky in the I-work-from-home department. We JUST got Internet. If you have emailed me or sent me an Etsy convo in the past two weeks and haven't gotten a response, I am so sincerely sorry! I WILL respond. It is just going to take a couple of days to sift through my inboxes.
Life here is so different already.
P.S. We have never been happier.
Love,
Rebekka

Wow these photos are beautiful and your home looks lovely. I know what you mean about the chaos of moving house, we moved recently too, we couldn't really wait to paint either as the house was in quite a state when we moved in. But it is great when you find somewhere that truly feels like home isn't it! Can't wait to see more pictures.
It looks BEAUTIFUL!! I'm so happy for you, and I am vicariously living out my nesting-with-my-boyfriend fantasies through your blog (we're not quite there yet!)
you are living my dream a bit. a perfect little home in Nashville. makes me want to move back right now. can't wait to see how it all comes together. congrats again!
i LOVE this! i just bought that table from world market...we just moved to nc and i sold my old one. you inspired me :) can't wait to see more house pics. those colors sounds gorgeous (and yummy)
I'm so happy for you guys, your new home looks wonderful! I just made a cross-Atlantic move this summer, so I know how taxing it can be... But I'm really excited to see more when you're ready to show us!
Congratulations on your new place! It looks beautiful already, can't wait to see what you do with the rest of the house!
Your carbonara comment totally made me smile. What a charming house. Good luck continuing to settle in.
beautiful! and so much cheerful yellow! yellow is the only color that makes me feel calm and cheerful all at once.
The house looks beautiful! I love the color scheme. Can't wait to see pictures of the whole thing. :)
From the little glimpses I see, it looks fantastic! Anything 82 years old is going to have tons of charm for sure!! Can't wait for a virtual tour of your home when you are settled.
I absolutely cannot wait to see the rest of your lovely home!
You have a beautiful style.

Congratulations! it looks absolutely lovely and homey already, HAPPY NESTING!

Your house is ABSOLUTELY lovely. Just stunning.
Gosh, I just adore you. Sending you and Manley warm wishes for the sweetest first week in your yellow house!
yeeeey, congratulations! moving's surely a pain in the you know where, but I imagine it must also be so challenging and energetizing experience. the cat definitely seems seatled;)

I already love what you have done with your house! Yellow is my favorite color, so I always enjoy seeing how people incorporate it into home decor. Can't wait to see more pictures of your lovely new place!

Lots of lovely light in your house- how cheerful!
So amazing Rebekka, so so very amazing! In a tiny corner of my heart I would wish to be in your shoes, I'll be honest, but I am really happy for you and wish you to enjoy your sunny loft :) Can't wait for more sweet letters from your corner of the world ;)
Love,

Wow. For only living there such a short amount of time, your house looks amazing! More decorated than mine does -- and we've been here 2 years! :)
Beautiful, bright and definitely cozy! I love it.
p.s. We have the Brother Sun, Sister Moon and it is one of my absolute favorites - the illustrations are divine.

looks beautiful! good luck continuing to get settled in.
ps LOVE LOVE LOVE your dining table
Oh dearie...if the rest of the house looks as wonderful as the little peeks you've allowed us, everything is going to tumble together nicely! Congrats on your home purchase!
so far it looks GORGEOUS! that black dining room wall is to die for. my fiance and i just moved 2 weeks ago and we're still in a state of shambles :/
hope you get settled in nicely!
I am so happy for you and so achy for a new place of my own with my furrballs and my Mr. P. I am also happy to see that even someone with such an amazing place has little kitty scratches on their furniture like I do. :)
Your new home looks beautiful, glad you are loving it! :) x
Looks so lovely already and light filled indeed! We're about to move in a couple weeks and the anticipation is killing me. So much to do, but I can't wait to wake up in our new home. Best of luck settling' in.
Just stumbled across your blog and so wanted to say hello. Congratulations on the house move - your photos and blog are very inspiring and I love your work.
I will be avidly following from now on.
best wishes
Sophie
Hace poco he descubierto tu blog y tu trabajo y me encanta así que he decidido poner un dear friend en el mío. Gracias!
I love the dining room color! (Is that the dining room?) Think of all the fantastic dinners and parties and crafty craft projects that are yet to happen in that room!
Settling in, and making a house a home is the best. (Nine years later, and we still are....)
Thank you for sharing!
Oh Rebekka, It looks so beautiful! I can't wait to see the rest of the photos! Does it feel different living in a house? xx Ann
Oh my goodness, your new home is already looking so lovely! I loooove the names of the paint colors...and now I am appropriately hungry for pasta. ;)

Those yellow roses against (I'm guessing) Ground Pepper. Beautiful! Even kitty cat matches. :)
