People are all about the price tag because that means high status. Not for me though, i'm economical all the way and i do love IKEA as well. Sure if I had the money i'd buy the real deal but since I don't, <a href="http://www.instylemodern.com/" rel="nofollow">modern furniture replica</a> will do. Sometimes it's a matter of having the style to put cheap things together than having the money to buy anything even if it doesnt look good. Oops sorry for the rant.

I can not speak for all ikea snobs, but for myself, I think I just get fed up with the idea of a "paint by number" Ikea house. Mix it up! Grab an ikea mirror and mix it with some interesting items in your bed room! AND, YOU DID THAT! I think Ikea snobs are only snobby when people idealize ikea...instead of using it creatively. Besides, I have to say, no one can beat their swedish meat ball meal!!!Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00796515876007906300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034366725430193913.post-46591199215920894892011-04-27T18:08:10.496-04:002011-04-27T18:08:10.496-04:00i'm in love with the butcher block!!

Thanks for the shout out and I'm loving your above post with the doors. Amazing details. It makes me sad that our city is so new, no cool old buildings to admire.Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10294888516373976430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034366725430193913.post-17735133350029486182011-04-19T11:06:39.037-04:002011-04-19T11:06:39.037-04:00slightly obsessed with that turquoise butcher bloc...slightly obsessed with that turquoise butcher block!!<br /><br />megmacdesigns.blogspot.comMeghan McCann https://www.blogger.com/profile/17204922145039045236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034366725430193913.post-27171050291186237002011-04-18T22:29:45.682-04:002011-04-18T22:29:45.682-04:00Yeah, I don't get the distain either.

And since the buyer assembles the product, a lot of the quality depends on the assembler themselves. What I do have from Ikea are two of their Jonsbo Barby lamps which I love!<br /><br />http://www.mysocalledhome.com/2011/02/if-i-was-from-paris-i-would-say-ooh-la.htmlHilary @ My So-Called Homehttp://www.mysocalledhome.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034366725430193913.post-12983351738776151222011-04-18T12:43:32.152-04:002011-04-18T12:43:32.152-04:00i painted my IKEA hutch tourquoise too :) love it!...i painted my IKEA hutch tourquoise too :) love it!<br /><br />http://nothisplace.blogspot.com/2011/03/preoccupations.htmlMichelle Vandepolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834640984084983495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7034366725430193913.post-6204594827872344052011-04-18T04:13:35.012-04:002011-04-18T04:13:35.012-04:00I HEART Ikea!!!!!!

I think I would love it. We're looking for a big black full length mirror like yours, so now I have a good excuse to go.

Ikea offers quite a few affordable, clean-lined pieces that can be customized with the addition of mouldings, a paint treatment or new hardware. <br /><br />Personally, I think it's great that there is a place where people with limited resources can find stylish furniture at a price point that they can afford.Karen https://www.blogger.com/profile/02441070110507014088noreply@blogger.com
