A few of the Many, Many, things I love from IKEA:
1 - The kids' dishes. Sure, everyone has them, but I love how they coordinate with the chubby flatware, I love that they're 'sandwich shaped' and I LOVE the shape of the little bowls. They make me happy.
2 - This hanging seat. It's up in Thomas' room, and he's not a huge fan as yet, but maybe in the future? It's cool, either way (and the other kids love it).
3 - Princess was completely thrilled with this artist's figure. She had to have it and paid for it with her own money. She keeps it posed (usually in dance positions) and has tried to draw it. I just think it's cool that this is what she wanted.
4 - This one has made me the most happy: A mini ironing board. It has changed my crafting life. It fits on the end of my sewing table perfectly, it's big enough to press just about any craft/sewing project and even the kids' clothes. Now I don't get out the big ironing board nearly as often. AND it was only $3.99. What a deal.
We have a super-busy week this week, as many of you do, so I'll be away from the computer much more than usual. Have a great Independence Day!
