Ikea Fun

Well we made it through Ikea without going too far over budget.

I am physically incapable of bringing one of those flat-packed boxes into the house and not opening right away.  It's just such a thrill to line all the pieces up.  Open up the instructions and see:

The Ikea Dude and a Really Handsome Man

The International Symbol for "Get a Handsome Man With Great Hair to Help You."

That was a good post..made me think of my poor darling hubby - he has battled through so many flat packed items..some easier than others I have to say.ha ha
I wish we had Ikea nearby, I have to go to
England or Northern Ireland to get my fix.
Its one of my favourite shops!
take care

It feels like a guilty secret, given what I do, but Ikea's one of my fave's, too.

It is you that introduced me to the wonders of IKEA oh so many moons ago...the love affair continues.

And I always thought they were bottom-heavy naked folk on the instructions :o)
