ok, this is crazy.
today started out with a list of things i needed to get done in my head, but i felt led to go to IKEA.
seriously, like drop everything, get in the car and go.
i had one thing i knew i needed to get and one that i quickly looked for online.
rarely, do i just wander through IKEA. i get overloaded and usually end up with too much in my cart. when i shop {for almost anything} i have a list and a plan.
so, i found out where i needed to pick up the big items and headed through the maze.
i got my first item and put it on the crazy driving trolley thing.
then, i went to find the other item.
i couldn’t make up my mind on which color i wanted, so i decided to walk away and think about it. i also needed help loading it onto the trolley thing, so i started to look for help.
then i spotted it in the “as is” area…the item i was looking for…in one of the colors i was choosing from…at a highly discounted price…and it was already put together!
done.
i was led.
seriously, even in things as trivial as furniture and home design we can be led.
stop and listen when your head is having trouble making a decision.
sometimes you need to walk away.
you will be guided.
i was guided to this chair, that makes this a new happy corner of our home!

Very nice…. I like it even better than the one we almost brought back from Goodwill last year! Good find
We live 2.5 hours from the nearest ikea so we definitely wander…through EVERY aisle/path! I am envious of your apparent close proximity. Great steal on the chair.
That is so funny we wanted to do the same thing today but lost the will. Trying to turn a corner nook into babies nook. I’ll give you before and after shots when it’s done.
Best parts are value village, love it.
I absolutely love it! Totally inspiring. I can’t wait until have enough of a deposit and can finally stop staring at magnolia walls of our rented house and built our special family home the way we want it! Xx
I love to hit the thrift stores for accessories and then splurge on a big statement piece to bring it all together. the chair looks great. And Ikea is definitely a lovely maze that can get totally overwhelming.
This corner is my favorite so far! My Chair is a coral color, totally relating to your find! Sometimes the best treasures find you.
