Yesterday my mum, sister & I went to
Swedish heaven, aka Ikea and we had the perfect Saturday.
And as soon as we set off in the car to go,
I knew it would be a bad idea, because nobody goes to Ikea
and spends nothing. It's just not possible.
And as I expected, I splashed the cash,
rolled the doh, spent the pennies.
I would've been able to refrain from this,
except that they had these lanterns...
and I love lanterns.
They were two quid and oh my gosh, the colours, THE COLOURS!
Red, yellow, pink, green, blue, silver, white,
black... if I had space in my already
packed out bedroom, I would've bought them all.
I had love hearts in my eyes
as soon as I saw them.
Perfection.

I only managed to get away with three,
but I still consider that to be a big achievement, seeing
as my mum just could not appreciate
the amazingness of these lanterns and why you
would spend £2 on one.
And currently, as my mum rightly said,
yes I don't have space for them in my room yet, but
I consider them to be a future investment,
for when I eventually get my own pad to decorate
and call my own.
So yes, it was a rather perfect day,
filled with chilling in the many different rooms,
nabbing mini pencils, eating Swedish
meatballs, drinking £1 milkshakes and stocking up
on beautiful starry lanterns.
Sigh......
I guess all that's left for me to say, is
I LOVE IKEA!!!
and I'm booking my holiday to Sweden ASAP.
