When you move into your first apartment home,

In the kitchen, make sure to get a sink stopper. If your apartment has a garbage disposal, you may already have a sink stopper. If there isn't a dishwasher in your apartment, you will need a dish rack. Obviously you will need eating and cooking supplies such as knives, forks, spoons, dishware, pans and pots. Do not forget a can opener and ice cube trays if there's not an ice maker in the freezer.

You will want to purchase a toilet plunger, toilet brush and shower curtain with hooks for your bathroom. If you'd rather to take baths rather than showers, you may need a tub stopper. Check the apartment bathroom to see if you need an additional towel rack. It is simple to find towel racks that don't require screws and hang over the door, so you don't have to put holes in the wall. A floor mat close to your bathtub is great to have so that when you step out, you don't have to step onto a bare floor.

There are supplies that you will want to clean each room in your apartment. You will want to get trashcans and trash bags, dishwasher and/or dish washing detergent, dusting supplies and a broom and dustpan. Also, you will need good cleaners that will clean sinks, windows, toilets, counters, tubs and floors. All of these supplies are fairly inexpensive. You can also purchase a compact vacuum cleaner inexpensively.

If you need to furnish your apartment, then furniture and decorations will be important. When it comes to this, your personal decorating preferences come into play. Besides the basic furnishings such as a bed, couch, dresser, table, etc, you can have fun with decorating and choosing colors. Have some fun adding your own style and individual touch to your first apartment.
