Ellie and I went to Ikea yesterday morning to buy the white
picture ledges for Summer's room and a few frames. It was 10:00 in the morning and I treated her to an ice cream cone. Lucky girl! That does not happen often at all. I'm usually pretty strict with treats so this was a very special occasion.
I could have spent much longer in the store browsing at all of the showrooms, but Ellie was with me so I had to make it quick. She would much rather have me carry her than sit in the cart, but if you know Ikea shopping carts they do not steer very easily so I need to push with two hands. She did a great job walking and staying with me. Sometimes you will find her running through aisles of stores while putting on a show singing and dancing for everyone. It's fun to watch, but not convenient when I'm trying to get things done!
Anyway, I got what we needed, but I also saw so many things I loved. First, I saw this small Lack table on the showroom and it's so cute. Such a great price at only $15. It is advertised as a TV table, but I could see it in a closet to hold shoes or a kids room as a bookshelf.
This pillow looks like a design from West Elm and only $10:
The Lack side table now comes in a glossy hot pink. Perfect for a girls room or to add color to a living room:
I love these colors and the pattern for a duvet in a girls bedroom:
And, a fun, patterned way to add storage to an office or closet:
Now I just need my husband's help to hang the shelves and I will post pictures of her nursery. My productive day was cut short yesterday as I developed a migraine later in the afternoon. Luckily I was able to rest while my husband was with the girls. We are getting a few more inches of snow this morning so I'm going to take the girls on a walk and hopefully play in the snow with Ellie while Summer naps. Have a great day!
