Go to Ikea

I should try to go to IKEA. I love their website and catalog so maybe one of these days when I am in need of new furniture!!!

I have a futon, a coffee table, an end table, a desk, a bookcase, a lamp and 3 area rugs from IKEA. I bought all them about 2 years ago. Maybe when I have more money, I will buy more expensive furniture, but these are not bad quality. My futon’s really comfy! It was a pain in the neck to assemble everything myself, but it’s worth it to save the money.

I finally made it back and after wading through the store with a massive smile, I found what I was looking for… 50 cent hot dogs and the holy grail of Swedish chocolate. I got a few lanps also but we all know why we really go there…

... so I’ve been there a few times. Didn’t buy furniture but I tried their swedish meatballs and lingonberry juice.

I was on vacation (via airline) so couldn’t buy anything to big since I wanted to pack it home.

I ended up with:
little glass tealight holders
rubber-coated tongs (love them!)
ice cube trays with interesting shapes
a set of three scissors

its cool i love it the stuff is weird and not many people have the designs. check it out

For my kitchen… so I plan on checking out their inventory, soon~

Ikea does have great furniture, and it’s fun to go find all the bit and pieces… but the swedish meatballs make it worthwhile. It is not an Ikea trip without meatballs, lingonberries, and potatoes.

is the greatest furniture store on the planet! You absolutely must visit if at all possible. :-)

to IKEA. It was the original IKEA in Älmhult, Sweden. I asked my husband how far away it was and how long it’d take me to drive there. He told me it was hours and hours away and that I couldn’t make it there and back in one day. As soon as my husband headed off to work, I took a map, jumped in the car and started driving. It took less than an hour, close to 45 minutes to get there. What fun! No, I never believe my husband anymore.
