I’m now one of the family at IKEA

by Katrina - The Organised Housewife September 22, 2010October 12, 2016
September 22, 2010October 12, 2016

I love IKEA, I don’t live near one but I don’t mind travelling the 45 min it takes to get there.  They have just about every piece of furniture you can imagine, I especially love their baskets.  I recently brought a new dining table from there which I love.

  • Free bottomless coffee every visit
  • FAMILY discounts on meals in the IKEA Restaurant
  • Exclusive savings on lots of products
  • Weekly $250 IKEA gift card draw*
  • Exclusive seminars and events
  • 10c donated to charity every time you swipe or scan your card

  • Extended 12 month return policy
  • Free IKEA FAMILY LIVE magazine home delivered

These are a few of my IKEA basket collection:

I love these containers they keep all my scrapbooking essentials organised.

On my wish list is the EXPEDIT 8 cube shelf in white to store all my scrapbook albums and supplies.   They don’t have white online so I am hoping they are still continuing with that colour.

Why did I not know about this! I love Ikea too, like you we have a 45 min drive & often will go for just an outing to look around & have a cheap meal! Although last time I thought Ikea had lost it's shine for me, I realized it wasn't Ikea it was my toddler, too little to go in the balls with her big sister caused alot of dramas! But I still love Ikea & I will be going to join the family as soon as I change baby's bott!

I love your expedit set-up!
I got the new catalogue in the mail on Monday and just joined the family.
Lucky me, I live just 10-15 minutes down the highway from Ikea 🙂 I will be popping in there today when I go shopping at Spotlight, but just for a browse and some lunch. Going back in a couple of weeks to shop for wardrobe organisers and baskets.

Okay I realise this is a really old post, but I just read through your entire blog from new to old – I’m addicted to you.

Anyway, I got so excited when I saw this IKEA Family thing – started filling out the registration form and then saw this –

“Apologies to our WA and SA cousins, IKEA FAMILY isn’t available in your IKEA stores.”

Boooo 🙁

My daughter makes these cookies for us and we all My daughter makes these cookies for us and we all love them so. I LOVE ROCKY ROAD, and these have all those yummy flavours in a cookie! They are a perfect treat in the afternoon when I sit down with a cuppa, I do love the crunch of the nuts and gooeyness of the marshmallow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The cookies freeze really well for eating later, but I must admit we tend to polish off the batch pretty quickly and they very rarely make it to the freezer in our home. I am planning on doing a big baking day soon to stock my freezer with snacks, these cookies would make a lovely once in a while, lunchbox treat if your child attends a school that allows nuts 🥜 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The recipe is on my blog, or just swipe up in my stories! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
