Zoeyjane’s got panache? Being domestic and stuff.

Welcome to the cozy abode.

I live here:

And it’s beautiful. And there’s a real sense of community.

But it’s expensive.

Enter Panache.

When I gave the notice to my landlord a month and a half ago that I would be moving out, I had grandiose thoughts of upgrading to a bigger space, with more amenities and less rent. Ha. At the last minute, virtually, I became panicked that I would have to move out of this wonderful neighbourhood to a scary, imperfect, inconvenient one. And I took the first local apartment that would have me.

We move in 11 days.

It’s at least a hundred square feet smaller (though less expensive) and doesn’t have a lot of natural light. I’m not sure what we have that will fit into the new suite, but I do know this: It will be our first place alone, just the two of us, without former memories inked all over the walls.

In fact, about those walls…they need some paint. And photos. Hmm, maybe a mural. And hey, we might as well make some curtains, while we’re at it.

Yep, enter Panache.

Where I show you everything I’m doing to make our life pretty, happy, affordable and cozy. And damn, is it going to be cozy.

Let’s try this again.

I can’t wait to see what you do with both places! I’m excited for your changes!

Woo hoo! It’s up! (And in record time, I might add. Way to go.)

I think this is a fabulous idea, and I hope you can roll it into an opportunity to take advantage of some of the things that the blogosphere can offer (ie. product reviews, freebies for you, a different kind of exposure, etc.) Good luck - I’ll be putting it in my reader!

Can’t remember what I wrote. It was brilliant, though. I am sure of it . . .

Oh yeah, can I come visit?

See. Brilliant.
