Ikea and the Tea Shelf

Over the wonderfully long Thanksgiving weekend, I went over the Brooklyn Ikea to purchase the shelf to make this tea shelf. To say the least, I walked out with a much larger, more expensive and already put together tea shelf. I love DIY stuff, but sometimes there is just something out there that is already made and is exactly what you needed.



Please excuse the poor photo quality, but here are some photos from the Ikea room set-ups. I have tried to keep some distance from Ikea since my first apartment was pretty much entirely furnished with Ikea furniture. However, I really like the new kitchens (appliances and all), bathrooms and country style lines. If my landlord would allow it, you can bet that this is what my kitchen would look like.

The Bedroom Shopping List

I haven't had much time this week so I have only been able to do a little online shopping so far but I think the bedroom design is starting to come together. Below are the online items but I hope to complete the look with pillows and two long mirrors from Home Goods (they always have great stuff) and some smaller items from around the house. Yellow pillow case from Pottery Barn $29 each for standard sham

I love this lampshade found on Etsy made by Jenny Bee's Shades. The price tag of $98 is a little high for what I had wanted to spend but if I don't find anything else then it might just happen.

Organic Weave Coverlet from Crate and Barrel $159 for the Queen/Full

Ikea Alvine Ruta Rug 5x7 $149

Daniella Chest from Pottery Barn for $599
