Sewing Room

[sveethot]

Almost a year ago I was in in Ikea's buying shelving units for my new apartment.  Today I once again returned to Ikea and bought some cheap, ugly metal shelves & installed them behind & above my sewing desk, basically making the mother of all hutches.  The top shelf is too high for use, but will be a good place to hide  little used crafting

Huzzah! Ikea is really awesome for stuff like that, is it not?

My heel was killing me, but I want to go back and just wander. Also nice that when they suck the almost last dollar, for $2 you can get a soda, coke, and cinnamon roll.

I've been poring over the IKEA catalog for when I graduate....I have a couch, tv, chair, tv stand, and some dishes (and maybe a bed, or at least a mattress), but I need bookcases and shelves and a lamp or something, so I'm hoping I can snag some of their awesome stuff. The Chicago IKEA isn't too far (if I get into ILUC). I've only ever been once (the nearest ones are in the twin cities or Chicago, ie, 4+ hrs away), but it was -awesome-.

My best friend in Denver said that when an Ikea opened up there last year, there was so much traffic going there, they had to dedicate a freeway lane just to get to the Ikea.

The one here is maybe 15 minutes away. Now I really feel like I should get there more often so as not to waste the wonderful opportunity of going to Ikea.
