tomorrow i hope that me and my father will take a trip to PIEKEA!(ikea)

for my 20th birthday i got a gift card from my relatives and i attend to use it.
also, it was supposed that i would buy lots of food at the grocery store but since my money are failing i'm not sure i can do that right now aaaaarhg.
but maybe i should, i mean, it's VERY much cheaper than buying here where i live, eventho we have one of those "low price food chains" here just round the corner, well well.

this is what i plan buying at IKEA tomorrow anyway:


 
 

I think i want all of those of above, BUT i could settle for just the first one and the second one. thou, that last box is just $0.99 and i need boxes, especially ones that i can upholster with textiles.

Pruta kitchen storage seems like a good(and cheap!) alternative. BUT Burken, Arkiv, Gemak, Förvar, Söta & Rajtan are all way cuter and more neutral. i must say that i do not at ALL like that all the "pruta" can's blue colour. and it seems like, according to the homepage, there are no other colours to choose between.
on the other hand- all these are supposed to be hidden in cupboards so no one will se their ugliness and they will protect  my dry food from being attacked by those vicious flour beetles that apparently was living in our pantry before us moving in here.

god i hate those!
i soon as we've  moved some more boxes up to the attic i will call anticimex and have them  spray nasty chemicals all over the kitchen! ha!


WELL
i think i should prepare for a night out, i decided to go!
kisses!!

i have come to decide that i think i will make my LJ more bloggish, though i don't know if that will work out for me, but i'll give a try. since i'm in a good mood/manic right now i'll go for doing as much as i can in the shortest time as possible.., because i don't know when i will go downward again.

anway i meant this entry to be about sweden, or swedish interior.
i've always tried to think about what could be "tagged" swedish(well except for IKEA, dah) and today when i did the dishes i came to think about our dishes and our towels and all those practical things that we have in our home. and i found that these are those typical swedish stuff!
i came down to three stores which i think represent swedish design very good:
• "granit" link
• "ordning och reda" link
• "design torget" link


i think that you could say that the three of these have, mainly two things in common:
storage & ingenious

and that is maybe how swedes in generally are. or is it? i don't know.

anyway, here are some pictures of items from those stores- enjoy:

   
 

   
 

 


each picture has a link for the store their from.

i found some really interesting terrariums serching the internet:








it was the one in the middle that i searched for but came up with the others on the same site.

i made some wonderful finds lately!
