Swedish Furniture

Yesterday, I went to IKEA the Swedish furniture store to pick up some odds and ends for my apartment. I ended up buying a couple big items like frames and a small bookcase. I also picked up a few random things that caught my eye. If you have been to IKEA you know it can be a little overwhelming and you always walk out with more than you intended.

My most random purchase of the day? These Northwoods animal cookie cutters. I bought them because it contains a PORCUPINE. How often do you come across one of those? I have a few ideas for what to make with these so stay tuned :)

The bookcase I bought required some assembly so I got to break out my new tool box! Notice my laptop? I got to watch some Olympic Swimming while working :) I managed to get the bookcase together and only swore a few times. Its a nice addition to the place and a good home to a portion of my library.

The beginning of assembly
TA-DA!

All in all, my apartment is coming together. A little slower than I originally wanted but its getting there!
