7 Weeks 4 days 18 hours 35 minutes

3 06 2009

Until Ikea finally open the doors to their Dublin store! I apologise now but I will probably be posting my ever expanding Ikea wish list for the next seven weeks. And hopefully I can narrow it down by the time Ikea opens.

I want to be more organised so the first two things will help me achieve that -

SKAR shoe cabinet 48 sKASSETT mag files 3 s

And I want to make a bed skirt very similar to Pia’s below -

bed skirt for box bed

And while I would LOVE!!!!! to use the same fabric, its a little out of my price range at the moment so here are my Ikea subs -

Swedese Happy Chairs

21 05 2009

Last weekend I attended the Design and Art Fair in the RDS, Dublin. I would post pics but that is another story.

Anyway I dropped by the Duff Tisdall stand to try out the Swedese Happy High Rocking Chair. Very comfortable indeed especially after you have been walking around for awhile! And it was in a gorgeous bright green which the sales rep told me went perfectly with my purple dress. I was almost tempted.

Here is a pic from the Swedese site. Unfortunately they don’t have a picture of the swing chair in green. But see the office version below.

And the rest of the Happy chair range looks just as stylish and most of all, comfortable. I would definitely be happy to own any one of them.

And oh how i would absolutely love to own a Swedese Tree Coat rack! They look even more amazing in the flesh!





Raven coat hanger by Ingibjorg Hanna

10 11 2008

Great for hanging that special dress or coat and great on its own. This Raven coat hanger is mounted from the ceiling but there are also two other versions with the standard coat hanger hook and one for trousers. The Raven coat hanger was designed by graphic designer Ingibjorg Hanna from Iceland.

You can purchase the coat hangers from Birkiland for 24 dollars

I also really like the Not Rudolf Coat rack - available through Birkiland for 87 dollars
