Is white the new black?

Ikea is a bit of a phenomenon like McDonalds: everyone knows it and almost every country has at least one. They have some items which I raise my eyebrows to, but also things I love. Unfortunely, and this might just be me, I'm usually dissapointed when I see a sofa in real life. It looks perfect in the catalogue but in the warehouse it looks old, sacked, sat on by too many people. We do really need a new sofa at home and with every good intention we visit Ikea only to come back empty handed. That is too say without a sofa.I'm usually not able to resist a nice mug or blanket *Ü*

All that said I LOVE browsing through their catalogue and gathering inspiration. Here are some of my favourite living rooms.

The White Room

Colour

I can just imagine lounging on one of the chaise longue's, a beer in one hand, Anton next to me, enjoying a movie night

I just love that rocking chair. It's name? Rock My World *g*

Booklovers bookcase

Small but social


If you have the space these sofa's would be great for a childrens play room! Cute crocodile as well :o)

I love the colourful living room - the cushions are so cool! I also think I'm going to need one of the Booklovers' Bookcases soon... :P

I love white. There is nothing more beautiful to me than white and I don't even know why I love it so much! I would definitely love to have the first living room!

I love the booklovers bookcase, I wish we had a bookcase that big!
My favorite room is the first one, but obviously with a toddler in the house, nothing would stay white for very long!
