IKEA bits




Went to IKEA the other day and spent a bit too much money. To my defence, most bits are for when I do up my room, so I can't actually use most of it yet. But still exciting with some new things to freshen up my little kingdom!

What I want to buy // February


 1/2/3/4

I'm constantly changing up my room, but I feel like I'm finally soon able to say I'm 100% satisfied. I'm going to Ikea during February so I have to snatch up these things!

The Day by Birger et Mikkelsen is so overdone in the Danish Youtube community I think, but I haven't found any other big simple make up bag I like to store my skin care in.

What is on your February wishlist?

I can see clearly now!

Made on Polyvore. 

Corner of my desk. Jewellery tree from Menu, various small trinket boxes, two acrylic boxes from Søstrene Grene and jewellery drawers from Jysk.

Made on Polywore.

If you want any specific names/websites for the things on the Polyvore pictures, go to my Polyvore profile which is here

I like to think my taste in furniture has changed a lot over the past few months. I like it clean and simple. No overly bright colours and too much cluttering up. I also like natural. I've seen a lot of people using tree stumps and pieces as coffee tables or bedside tables. And home made concrete candle holders. (Tutorial can be seen here from my favourite home blog. The post is in Danish but I'm sure you can find English tutorials too)

I think liking the way your space - whether it's a room, a flat, a house - is one of the most important things to be able to relax. And also if it's clean and tidy, I find it easier to think. Clean room, clean mind. And since it's a new year, why not try and spice up your place? 

Clean out your wardrobe and drawers. Get rid of things you never use or wear. Throw out what's damaged too much to be donated, ask if any friends or family want any of your things. Buy some fresh plants. Have a cleaning day. Open your windows for a few hours to let the fresh air in.

*insert cheesy quote/lyric about change*

I've had enough of how my room looked, how my desk was messy and bulky and impractical for what I need in a desk, so I scraped the last few bits of money I had and asked my mum "Hey, can we go to Ikea on one of your days off?" and we headed to Ikea. I will do a full post about how it looks when it's done, when I'm actually fully done. Sean is sending some pictures I asked him to print out for me (can we appreciate people like that, he's the best) and still have some projects I'm thinking of doing. But this is how my room looked for 2 weeks!







If you've ever redone your room, I feel your pain.
