My first 'own home', not shared by any one else had orange laminate nebches and shagpile carpeting up the walls. And I loved it.

Thanks for posting them. I remembering wondering why people always complimented my not-so-nice, hand-me-down rocking chair when they visited my first apartment. Then I realized the chair was the ONLY piece of furniture I had...what else were they going to say besides, "nice chair." My mom would bring a lawn chair to sit on when she visited. Still...happy memories! These photos are wonderful! Thanks for posting them.

My first home was a tiny 2 bedroom flat with hand me down furniture from my parents and his parents. <br/><br/>My favourite first home though was the first house I lived in on my own after leaving my ex. I had very little, but boy I loved that place! lovely!! My first home was a tiny 2 bedroom flat with hand me down furniture from my parents and his parents.

My first place was a little flat on top of a shop that sold barbeques and it was filled with found objects - my chairs were chrome with black velvet....oh yes!!!! And, how many people do you know who live in homes with extra bedrooms and "entertainers" kitchens, who don't enjoy the warmth of a truly loved and loving home? Great photos!
