IKEA IS MY JAM.
Ikea is, as far as I'm concerned, is the happiest place on earth.
1. The Swedish Meatballs.
2. FURNITURE.
3. Cost Efficient.
… you almost forget how annoying it is to have to build everything yourself.
Yerin and I headed over there the other evening for some things she wanted and I ended up leaving with $90 worth of a bedroom makeover. Always.
We (obviously) started off with a round of Swedish Meatballs and a hodgepodge of other yummies that only set us back a cool $7.11. How DO those Swedes do it?!
I would have done a before shot of the room, but I was too excited and started tearing things apart… this excitement also causes problems because I am too excited to think before I act.
It always takes a while when working with the two steps forward, one step back approach.
I scored two of these cool lamps for the ol' nightstands - notice how my water bottle collection has been removed?
After the washing and drying of the sheets and duvet (shout out to my mom for teaching me how to put a duvet cover on!), the final product is this:
The giant cupcake is going away as soon as I figure out how to get these frames on the wall:
Update: Dizzle has volunteered to do the hanging and the leveling and all else that's associated with putting frames up on a wall like an adult. I was just going to use duct tape and magic.
It doesn't look like much, but for $90, at least it got my room clean-ish.

When you can't finish your food, play with it!
(I don't actually condone this behavior, you better believe I powered through every last bite of this delicious-ness.)
