My Ikea-Filled Home

It's no secret that I love Ikea, so when I was contacted by them last year to see if I'd like to submit photos of my home for their monthly magazine I may just have squealed once or twice.

Today, the magazine went live, you can see the interview and photos over here.  If you look closely you'll see a Helen Dardik print , a Mizu Designs print, a pajama monster by Jetta's Nest and a quilt by my mum.

Here are a few more photos of the house that I took during the shoot...

My little one's room with her little creative station (her painting area is set up outside).  If only it was always this tidy....

Our kitchen and my little Kokeshi wall, the hanging Kokeshi quilt is also by my mum.  The funny thing is, I was right in the middle of painting the kitchen bench so in the magazine the benchtop is a different colour.

The little one's gallery wall in the kitchen...

I love the kissing couple curtains above our bed...

Some new artwork by myself above our sofa.  I sigh when I see those cushions as the puppy went through a stage of destroying any that she could get her teeth into.  I need to mend / replace them soon as I think the phase has finally passed...

And my beloved studio, I wish it was always this tidy too!

So that's our humble little home.  It may be small but we love how comfortable and cosy it is.
