Moving into a new home can be exciting, but it's also a little scary. You don't want to go overboard with purchases, but you also want to make sure that you have everything you need. Here are some things to consider buying after moving into your new home:
-A housewarming gift for yourself! Why not treat yourself to something special? The thrill of moving into a new place may have worn off by now, but it's still an exciting time and a great opportunity to treat yourself.
-New furniture and décor. If you're moving into an apartment or condo, you'll probably want to start with the basics and then add more as you go. You might even want to hire someone else to decorate for you!

It can be fun to paint the walls of your new home! If you're not feeling up to doing it yourself (or if you just don't know how), consider hiring someone else to do it. You could also just pick out one wall and try painting it yourself first before committing to doing all four walls at once—that way if it doesn't look good, you can always repaint over it later on down the road!
