Invest in quality bed sheets and pillowcases, towels for both the bath and handwashing and a warm comforter or duvet.
Keep your new space tidy with brooms, dustpans, mops, buckets, cleaning cloths, and trash bags.
Bring in entertainment with a TV and entertainment system. Ensure you have a reliable laptop or computer, and don't forget chargers for your devices.
Make your apartment feel like home by adding personal touches like wall art, posters, plants, or decorative items for shelves.
Outfit your bathroom with a shower curtain, ample toilet paper, and necessary toiletries.
Maximize space with storage bins or containers, and consider closet organizers to keep things tidy and accessible.
Have essential tools like a screwdriver, hammer, and nails on hand. A flashlight and extension cords can be useful in various situations.
Stock up on pantry staples, snacks, and non-perishables. Don't forget toiletries like toothpaste and shampoo.
Prioritize safety with a first aid kit and ensure you have functioning smoke detectors in key areas.
Establish a routine for rent and utility payments. If desired, consider setting up a joint bank account and using budgeting tools to manage expenses effectively.
Create moments of joy with board games, cards, books, or items related to shared hobbies and interests.
Foster a healthy living environment by maintaining open communication about expectations and establishing personal and shared spaces.
