Yesterday we had zero plans. My ingenious husband came up with the idea of visiting our favorite Swedish store, Ikea. I can't turn down meatballs and random cheap purchases.
We ended up buying a sleeping pillow, table runner for Christmas, Christmas ornaments, a pretty cool roasting pan, and wrapping paper.
Throughout the store I took pictures of what I liked. I thought I'd share my 'window shopping' Ikea experience with you!
We liked this dining chair because of its gray/brown color. It would be great with a colorful cushion on it. I think that they were around 25 dollars a chair.
These chairs make me drool every time we are at Ikea. They are 140 a piece, so not on the budget today. Maybe someday. The seat is a taupe/grey fabric. Gorgeous.
This is the table runner I bought, except the background is white. It is a super fun graphic print! I'm excited to decorate the table with it.
This chair is another Ikea staple that makes me drool each time. It is like a dark grey felt fabric. I think that they are like 150 a piece.
The lovely husband is modeling a chair that I hadn't seen before. It's a dark blue wing back chair. The pic sucks, so here's the Ikea pic:
It also comes in gray. Fierce.
I really liked this fabric. Something about the color combination and almost architectural pattern appealed to me. If our name started with a Y, you could bet that would be on our headboard STAT. Otherwise, I could see it as an accent pillow or table runner.
This picture is just a laugh. The zany Ikea store decorators cut up a fur rug and made little booties for this chair. Ya know, no holiday gathering is complete without furry chair legs.
This one is obviously not Ikea, but I thought that you might appreciate the snapshot of a cool spiderweb that I took while chasing a cat out of my yard (I was yelling, "I love you kitty, but don't come in my yard!!!!!!!). Yeah, we live a glamorous life here.
