Shadow Box and wooden spool dolls
The first shadow box I make...I wish I could find some small "treasures" to complete the vignette. Although we went to a huge antique mall yesterday, I couldn't concentrate very well as I was very tired of all the driving and the kids couldn't stop whinning and nagging after us...not the right place for kids anyway, but we don't travel to Phoenix very often, so...at least, we got some cool vintage cars to decorate their rooms. How about Ikea, hu? Cool prices, but I would like to know about the quality of the furniture they sell. Our kids loved their toys, speacially the train set made in Bulgaria* and this thing, that I think is sooo very ugly! That super swedish royal blue place is huge, it was packed (oh, bugger, it was saturday!) and after getting few things like those cd/dvd storage that I wanted so much, to do some decoupage on it and, other small things for our home, I started to panic and beg to leave in a rush...what a headache. I don't like crowded places. That store is like a labyrinth...
The shadow boxes, finally...

Ikea furniture quality is great for the price. they recently came out with a higher-end line, which is a bit more pricey, but higher quality. Based on the quality if their lower priced peices I'd bet the higher stuff is fantastic.
If I could do my furniture shopping again I would still get the lower priced shelving, dressers and beds, but I would splurge in the more expensive sofas and chairs.
I like some of Ikea's furniture and decorations, most are very contemporary and stylish but I'm not sure about the quality of the sofas and bigger furniture either. I think even though they offer very inviting deals, there are better furniture stores out there with good prices and better quality.
I looooved the shadow boxes, so cute!
