A few years ago when I was furnishing my condo I discovered the wonderful world of Ikea. However, I was quickly disappointed when most of the furniture that I purchased began to fall apart. I swore that I would never buy anything from them again.
But, as they say, pain has no memory, because here I am again. It started with the cabinets. I figured that I would grab the cabinets from them and that would be it. The place sucks you in, next thing I know, I am buying a coach, chairbed, folding chairs and all sorts of junk. They have the craziest stuff there. They have solutions for problems that you won't even know that you have.
I bought the cutest cactus' for about 3 bucks each and adorable pots to put them in. I placed them on the toilette organizer. My kids always ask why I only buy "prickly" plants. It's because they are the only plant that won't die in my care. My son was chanting, "plant killer" all afternoon.
I picked up shadow photo boxes with decorative stones to go inside.
I got a 16 piece silverware set for $4. How crazy is that!!!
I even ended up buying the fridge from them. We got lucky with free delivery because the warehouse guys couldn't get the thing pulled before closing.
So anyhow I am almost set up in here. The stove is being delivered on Thursday and then I should be in pretty good shape.
It will be nice to be able to focus 100% on the real house now.
