IKEAish

I love IKEA! In my "pre-mama life" I worked there as a designer. It was FUN! Since then, I just can't seem to shake IKEA out of my life. We live within a couple hours drive of the nearest IKEA store. So my visits are few and far between nowadays. When we do go, it becomes a fun time for the whole family. The kids have fun browsing the themed rooms, pretending they are real homes, and they can be their real bedrooms! The store is very inviting and captivating for the youngest to the oldest in the bunch.

The three white frames above where purchased at IKEA. They were empty shadow boxes that I belive were around $4 each. I saw them and knew just what I would put in them!

In our front room this storage unit holds some books and trinkets. It it really a great piece and we love it.

Our front room is also where our home office/crafting room/kids homework room is. The tall drawer unit on the left I bought WAAAY back when I was still working at IKEA. I bought it cheap-cheap in "as-is."The wood and metal shelf is IKEA, as are the micro-mini wooden drawers. They are great for holding all sorts of office needs and kids craft supplies.

So, there you have it. A little peek at my IKEAish home. Do you have a favorite IKEA piece?
