It has been a while since I’ve visited Ikea, I think the last visit was 2 months ago. Visiting Ikea can be a fun time, it’s a wonderland of amazing stuff for your home. Browsing through their displays of amazing furniture and setup makes you crave for your dream home, Not sure about you guys, but every time I look at a setup especially a kitchen and home office, I always imagine myself being there and living that moment!

Such a great place for creativity as well, it’s more like a gallery of creativity at Ikea. Seeing how the Ikea designers make good use of their creativity into something durable, multipurpose, with a sustainable product design. That’s what makes Ikea different from others!

Having said that, I wanted to list the Ikea stuff we purchased. They are also having their part sale and a great Ramadan collection as well!
