IKEA 2010 Notes

I spent some quality time with my new IKEA 2010 catalog this past weekend. IKEA catalogs are great because it takes 20+ times to go through it to really take note of all your favorite little things. Here are some things I took note of on my 3rd time through:

NASSAJO Candle Holder - $7.99
I really love reflective quality of this simple votive holder. These are definitely on my shopping list!


Mystery Throw?
When I saw this scene, the first thing I really saw was that fabulous herringbone-looking throw. I have no idea if it's from IKEA but I'm really really hoping it is.


Metal Lighting
I love both lighting pieces in this image! Especially the task light - I wonder if it's a floor lamp or desk lamp.


Karlstad Armchair - $249
I've loved the Karlstad series for a long time, but who knew how amazing the armchairs looked from behind? Definitely eye opening (props to the shoot stylist).


Another thing I loved right away was their industrial shelving. Who says it has to say in the garage? I fully plan on putting either one of these types of shelving units in my future office. And bonus - the price is right.

Hyllis & Broder shelving units




Great floor "cushion", great price - $29

    Love those floor cushions! We use them to "place" our dogs on like a bed...

    Bryn,

    I did the same thing this weekend. The hyllis shelving is great but little rickety. Still when it comes to looks a row od those could look stunning and be a total bargain.

    Lucky! I haven't got the new one yet and I'm dying to go through it before I move.

    Also love that lamp (for the desk?) and saw one almost exactly the same at HomeGoods this weekend!

    Great choices... many of my own! I too spent the weekend perusing the catalog. I love that the Karlstad has the slipcover option that goes to the floor... so chic!

    Can I say I am so jealous that you got your Ikea catalog before I did! Not fair! :)

    Thank you for posting about these items, I'm moving in two weeks (!!) and I have been looking in the catalog for inspiration myself. I love that task lamp as well, and I'm so glad you pointed out how useful that shelving could be for my new studio!

    I'm also a big fan of their Parsons style tables.

    Great post! I'm loving those armchairs – I am going to keep those in mind for our "formal" living room redo. I hope I get my catalog soon! :)

    Hmm...never was a huge fan of clear containers...until now that is! I love the clear storage containers mixed with the basket and eathy texture. It seems clean, airy , natural, and still modern!
