So my past few weekends have been spent looking at condos in Hoboken. In the beginning it was very exciting and now I must say that you reach a point where you get a little desensitized to many of the features that you later learn are standard with the place that you are looking at! With that being said, looking at these crisp and modern places makes me want to decorate all over it! I have learned that my bf is fascinated (read obsessed) with ceiling heights and I am all about storage whether it is closets, shelving or bringing in containers. So as he looks for yet another amazing space, I tend to visit sites like Ikea to find these super cute Spice Containers. I love a contemporary/modern look and I love knowing that I can see what spice I am actually about to use. So it seems that we may be closer than ever in terms of getting a great place! I can't wait to share with you guys all the items that I plan on getting from Crate & Barrel, Ikea, Target and so much more!

So I am looking for a little feedback here. The whole reason why I have a laptop is for the ease of use no matter where I am. I love that I can sit in my kitchen, move to the couch and just take it out of my apartment when I am feeling a little cagey so to speak. My mom will come over and complain that I should have a little table or stand for it; however, I feel that it is cozy when it is in my lap! But it did get me to thinking and although they have beautiful cabinets where your laptop can sit, when you have the fabulously sized apartments in the city, who needs extra space taken up with those. At the same time, the little laptop mats seem more annoying and not so secure.

So I let my fingers do the walking and went to Ikea.com (you have to love that this is a space saver AND not going to break the budget) and found this cute little thing - a laptop table known as the DAVID. Now when I am just browsing I may not use this; however, there are many times where I have papers and books that need to be in my lap and having my laptop on something like this wouldn't be such a bad idea! Thoughts and ideas? I love the fact that that the height is adjustable and for all those that have a studio and a home office - you can now use this during those work hours and feel like you have a designated space for work!
