list of things we need for our first home?
DH and I are trying to think of all the things we need to buy for our first home
we know we will need... lawn mower rake shovels trashcans hose sprinkler BBQ
dining room set living room furniture chandelier for dining room patio furniture
we have a kitchen table office furniture a couch and coffee table bedroom furniture TV (for now, eventually will get a new one) vacuum tons of cleaning supplies
we have tons of kitchen and bathroom stuff already from my bridal shower
any random important things that i am leaving out? I don't want to go crazy buying things and spending $ right away, but there are some things we will probably need right away. Also, DH's family was asking us what we wanted for a house warming gift.

We just moved everything in from our apartments and then furnished each room one at a time so that we didn't get overwhelmed.
Something we needed right away (which I don't see on your list) is a ladder.

yes, you are right...a ladder we will need right away since we plan to do much of our own painting!
Also, i agree..we plan to furnish the house very slowly. We will just use what we have for now and take our time getting the real furniture. It's so overwhelming even thinking about what style and design of furniture we might want. We want to take our time and make sure we make the right decision!

DH's parents got us a gift card to Home Depot. Best gift EVER. With a house, there are a hundred little things you're going to need that you won't think of. Try not to let it overwhelm you; just take everything one step at a time.
