ikea love

How did I spend my day yesterday?? At IKEA ... 12 hours straight!!!! We rented a trailer and drove an hour to Philadelphia, only to have to go back home, drop off the first load and return to get a full second one! But I'm excited because the space will look awesome!!! And I didn't really spend that much all together. But enough to scare me into knowing I really need to book classes and sell stuff to pay off this huge bill!!!

 

 Here is the work tables I bought... the new Norden dining table in white which extends to seat 10 people! It looks like an art table!

And here are the work chairs... they are a chartreuse green!! The same color as the chevette I drove in high school. Call me crazy but they matched the green and white theme that seems to be happening now. 

 We got some plants and shelving and my desk and counter too... I even got a green shag rug that looks like grass for my reading area!! Then I already found little round red seat cushions for the rug that the littlest kids can sit on while we look at Eric Carle books and the like.

I will definitely post photos as we put the hundreds of boxes of furniture together! My floor guy (Craig) is taking awhile to put up the trim. Of course the fact that he has a full time job also is a good excuse.  My sign out front should be done by tomorrow (fingers crossed!!). 

I am SO missing reading your blogs right now but I have been going morning till night working and I go to OM competition tomorrow afternoon out of town...ugh. I just want to sleep in my own bed!!!
