Scandinavian & Green...Inexpensive & Chic Home Decor

My love affair with IKEA is going strong after 30 years. You would expect hiccups in a relationship that has lasted this long...but alas...my respect, admiration and lust for their perfectly priced designs continues to grow exponentially after all of these years. Here are two simple and splendid living room and dining room boards I whipped up for those looking to refresh their small spaces. All the products are from IKEA. Both rooms cost less than 2500 USD in total.

Bring the outdoors inside or bring the indoors outside...whatever you decide to do, use the colour green and actual greenery to make your simple and splendid Scandinavian interiors come alive.

Have you discovered the "ideas" section on all the various country websites of IKEA? The posts there are truly inspiring. I took a look at the Turkish IKEA website and chose my favourite items for you to refresh your home for FALL/WINTER 2017-2018.

Have you checked out IKEA's new PS 2017 line? The gorgeous bar cart (trolley) and navy blue floor lamp are from this collection. Don't you just love the new details on IKEA's EKET storage solutions? Such a fresh take on classic book cases, non? I especially love the new birch feet that go so beautifully with their all of their other beech furniture in the PS 2017 line.

​Here are some of my selections for you...hope you enjoy them...let me know what you think...
