First Apartment Packing List Items We’re Currently Obsessed With:
Kitchen:
1. Bar Stools
Like… are you joking! These bar stools are so cute and the studded detail just makes them even better. Personally, I like when bar stools have a back for extra support so these are perfect!
2. Pots & Pans
I love the look of the white granite on these! It is a 10 piece set of all nonstick cookware. This is definitely a practical investment for a new apartment!
3. Dishes & Bowls
I have white glass bowls with the beaded detail just like these! This cute dishware set comes with everything!
4. Blender
My family has tried a lot of different blenders and I always just thought they were all good. Then, I brought my Ninja blender to college and my roommate could not believe how good it was! She would tell me every week haha.
I quickly realized it was a really good blender and literally blends through anything. If you like making smoothies, milk shakes, acai bowls, or frozen drinks, I promise this blender is for you!!!
5. Keurig
If you’re a coffee or tea drinker, having a coffee maker in your apartment is so helpful! I know a Keurig is expensive, but I always tell myself that in the long run it helps me safe money.
If I didn’t have one, I would buy a lot more Starbucks haha. They are super easy to use too! I also like this version because it takes up less counter space.
6. Microwave
If you’re apartment doesn’t come with a microwave, I definitely recommend getting one. I love having my microwave to quickly reheat leftovers and pop some popcorn for movie nights.
Living Room:
1. Chairs
If your apartment is unfurnished, these chairs look so comfy!
2. Coffee Table
I feel like this coffee table would look good in any living room! I love the look of the wood on the white.
3. TV
You will definitely want a nice TV in your apartment! I love my amazon fire stick and bet their TV is great too!
Bedroom:
1. Mattress Topper
This 4 inch mattress topper will make your mattress SO much more comfy!! I have a 4 inch topper similar to this one and it’s the best!
2. Nightstand
This nightstand is perfect for holding a few important items next to your bed.
3. Desk
We love the look of this white and gold chic desk. All you need is a comfy desk chair and your computer and you’ll be ready to work!
Cleaning:
1. Vacuum
You will definitely want a good vacuum to make cleaning a lot easier! This vacuum is also cordless which is so nice!
Bathroom:
1. Blow Dryer
My roommate’s sister let me borrow this blow dryer and it is the best! My hair takes forever to dry, like so long it is annoying.
I really didn’t think any blow dryer would work, but this one cut the time it takes me to dry my hair in half. I will never use another blow dryer again!
2. Straightener
This is the BEST straightener ever. I got this straightener in middle school and still use it today! I love the rose gold coloring on this one and it’s on sale.
3. Curling Iron
I got this curling iron for Christmas and it’s so so good. Until I started using a wand like this I could never curl my hair. I definitely recommend this one!
Technology:
1. Fire Stick
My roommates and I use our fire stick all of the time! It makes watching TV so much easier.
