We were furnished with very nice furniture when we moved to PNG.
The first year, my bible study friends mailed me some material and I made some pillows and made the house more "us".

On Scott and I's trip to Singapore, I experienced Ikea for the first time. On our second trip, I picked out 8 pillows and curtains for our home! 4 of the pillows, I recovered with extra fabric from the curtains and also made a valance. When mom and dad come in March, they are bringing actual tie backs for the curtains.
Upon returning to PNG with my new stuff, I had to get new curtain rods, holders, and end caps. I got all of these items in one day of town shopping. I bought each thing at a different store and went to 9 different shops trying to find the stuff. But the task was accomplished, without a Lowes or Home Depo! And I am so thankful for my new pretty touches in our house.
Did you think we lived in a hut?

I should clarify that we while we do have a tv, we do not have any channels. We watch dvds or tapes. The tv has been on a lot more lately with all of the sick kids and need for vegging.
