If you live with roommates, your bedroom can be your sanctuary, so it's important to make your space as comfortable as possible. When moving into an unfurnished apartment like Affinity Tampa, at the minimum, your must-haves should include a bed frame, mattress, bedding, and pillows. Our apartments are conveniently located minutes from Target, Walmart, Wayfair, and Costco, so finding bedding to match your style is easier than ever.
The kitchen is the heart of the home, so whether you plan on cooking, dining, or entertaining, you will need several different components to make your kitchen yours. The cost of non-essential items can quickly add up, so be careful about what you need versus what you want. Must-have items such as dishes, cookware, utensils, cleaning rags, and other supplies should be some of the first items in any kitchen. For those living with roommates, be sure to coordinate who brings what to ensure there are no duplicates and all kitchen necessities are covered.
Living in a pet friendly apartment in Florida means that you won't have to leave your pet behind, and they can embark on this new life journey with you. To ensure that they are just as happy as you are in your new place, make sure to pick up basic supplies, such as food, toys, a bed, and any additional supplies to ensure they have everything they need to be comfortable in your new home.
To make your new apartment truly feel like home, you're going to need plenty of decorations, trinkets, and other items to suit up and style your home. Wall decorations, such as paintings or string lights, indoor plants, and other decorations that show off your style, are affordable or can be brought along from your previous residence. Even better, you can utilize Command™ Decorative Hooks to ensure no damage is done to interior walls while still allowing you to get your home looking its best!
