    Karrie, your children are adorable! So well behaved and so loving towards one another! You are a great Mom!
    It was amazing! You gave to the children your time though you struggled with the buggy, the camera
    and the merchandises! Many thanks for taking us into your home and inspiring us in so many ways and not just with decorating our homes! God Bless!

    Hi Karrie, when you go in IKEA, each room display they have set up, somewhere in that display they have a chart listing everything in that display and the code number to write down in case you want to purchase it. I love their glass section and the outdoor decor section as well. Plus, the Swedish meatballs are great.. they even sell them in a big bag frozen. Anyway, just an FYI.. Glad to see you all have so much fun! Love you guys. BIG HUGS ❤😊

    IKEA textiles are the best ever. Long lasting bed linen, towels, curtains etc. I just love it and can't leave there without something, especially the glassware, vases or lamps. So much inspiration, I'm glad you finally got to experience it yourself.

    Watching you navigate IKEA for the first time was so entertaining, LOL! It’s an experience, isn’t it! You don’t really take the buggy through the show room that’s more when you get to the marketplace. And I noticed you didn’t go to the cafeteria. They have the best meatballs, lol! It is much better when you go alone. I go there and just aimlessly wander around for hours. One thing you can always guarantee is that I will come home with some pillow covers. It’s a bit of an obsession. I invested in inserts which are made of down and are very affordable. I’m glad you finally went and saw what the hype is all about❤😂

    Happy New Year.

    Girl, I’m so glad you finally made your way there I’ve been to their stores all across the country. My husband says your herded like cattle with the arrows on the floor, lol. But it helps flow through their displays. You learn shortcuts when you get more familiar 😊 they have amazing options for the most affordable!
    The thing to consider about Billy bookcases is that they are almost always taller then other standard bookcases so you get more height and you can customize and buy premade doors to close in the bottom to get a more finished built in look. That’s IKEA for ya, crazy options! It can make your 🤯

They definitely have some neat items. Your kids are so sweet and well behaved. I’m glad y’all had a wonderful day out together. I cannot wait to see what you do with the book cases. I know it will look awesome as usual. I’m also sure half the stuff at Ike’s, you and your husband could build. I’m sure you got plenty of ideas. I enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing.

    We've purchased the Billy bookcases. Two were in my son's bedroom, and we still use them (35 years) and are in good shape. My husband has the tall ones in his office and they look custom made. I don't remember the cost but it was worth the cost. Beautiful looking and great quality.

    Oh how I miss IKEA! I lived just about 15 miles from the IKEA in Tampa & went there quite often. Once you go on a regular basis you learn how to take shortcuts to get out sooner, and you learn where everything is. I don’t like the Billy bookcases either. I had 2 Hemnes bookcases and loved them. I had them on each side of my fireplace. The quality is amazing. I gave them to my kids when I moved from Florida. Just try to go more often & you’ll enjoy it more. I love the kitchen section. So many amazing buys there too. Plus those dish towels you saw, they are awesome! Plus such a great value! Try them next time you’re in there. Thanks for sharing. My closest IKEA is now 2 hours away in Atlanta. Ughh that’s a terrible drive. See you again soon. 😊❤😊

    IKEA is great, but give me a good discount store any day. I can make it beautiful on a budget. I get so many compliments on my home. I know Karrie is a great teacher for that. Ross, Big Lots, TJ Max, I love them all. When I moved to California, we took a trip to Bed bath and Beyond. I found bargain basement curtains, two panels for $10.00 I got 4 sets and they’re still up and actually just beautiful. You really can do it all on a small budget. And if you have the money to buy something nice, do, it will mix with your less expensive finds I promise! And don’t forget to buy used. Karrie knows this as well.

    Once you get used to the carts they are really easy to deal with.
