Furniture store

Rated this place:

It's a great place to spend a Saturday when you only have $2 in your pocket. You can go to Ikea, pretend you live in 1 of 25 beautifully furnished "apartments" for a few hours, make a wish list (for better times), and get a hot dog and a drink. It's almost as exciting as a day at Canada's Wonderland for people on a very limited budget. ALMOST.

Exploring our new home

Rated this place:

Spent a great day shopping at Ikea where I started budgeting and planning for my future home. The prices are great and the decorative models gives inspiration to our future kitchen, living and bedrooms. I also took the opportunity to eat at their restaurants which was an absolute deal!

Throw me a Rug!

Rated this place:

Ikea is great for home decor on a budget because you can find many items to suit any mood of decor: classic, minimalist, eccentric you name it. I think one of the best things about Ikea is their textiles and rugs department. All the visuals in that one area are inspiring and you can design a whole room around one eye-catching rug or a metre of fabric (that you will eventually make drapes out of or reupholster a chair with). If you happen to be a seamstress or a real good DIY'er, then definitely check out their fabrics which are colorful and graphic.
