My trip to IKEA on Sunday was super fun and very profitable. I purchased a different table and different picture frames than I originally planned which saved me about $150. I was so pleased with myself and so happy Barbara was along to help make decisions. The table I chose is actually a bookcase but it can stand vertically or horizontally; the horizontal way is the perfect size for a console/sofa table. The picture frames I wanted were bigger than I expected and they looked like shadow boxes so I went with $2.99 frames over the $9.99 frames.
I put the table, file boxes, baskets, and lamps together Sunday night. The pictures were placed on the wall yesterday. I still have some plastic magazine holders that I'm going to cover with fabric so the arrangement isn't completely done. My little owl needs to be glazed and fired but it will still be white.
I finally made my design book selections and placed an order with Amazon earlier this week. I'll reserve a spot for them on the new table. I'm not sure what to think about the lamps. They look more lavender than grey in person. I've saved the packaging and will give it a week or two to decide. I'll work on another post once the magazine holder project is complete. Next week I'll be in Myrtle Beach. Yeah!!
