Here are six must-haves for your new place:
A bed. If you’ve ever played the Sims or Minecraft, you know step one is setting up your bed. This goes beyond having a mattress, box spring, and frame, though. You’ll need a fitted sheet, a top sheet, pillowcases, blankets, and a comforter. You’ll also have to put the bed together, which brings us to item number two.
Item number two: A toolkit. Even if you don’t consider yourself handy, you’ll need a toolkit with:
- at least two screwdrivers (Phillips and flathead, and a hex key might come in handy as well)
- a hammer
- nails
- wall hooks
- a tape measure
- pliers
- an adjustable wrench
- a utility knife
- a level
- a ruler
Third Item: Kitchen supplies! You need:
Number four: Bathroom supplies: soap, toilet paper, towels, a shower curtain, bath mats or rugs, a toilet brush and cleaner, and a toilet plunger (don’t wait until you need one to get one)
Five: A sofa and chairs for the living room
And finally, number six: A television (unless you are fine watching everything on your phone or iPad)
