Judy Evans @JudyEv (381837) • Rockingham, Australia 26 Jul

Some time back I wrote about the vertical gardens I bought. I didn’t have much luck with it as we were away so much and it was so hot. We look like being home for a while now and it rains quite often so I’ve planted three punnets...

Yesterday, we built the second of two overhead cupboards which we’ve put in the laundry. They are from Ikea. Instructions from Ikea are always in pictures with no text at all. If you follow the pictures very carefully and don’t go...

Ahead of schedule

Marsha @MarshaMusselman (38865) • Midland, Michigan 1 Oct 21

Our two workers are ahead of schedule so they may not return until next Thursday unless they get other work that's been on hold done in two days and then they might return earlier. But that's okay because I still have glassware...

A public service announcement (joking) about IKEA

Scott Andersen @DocAndersen (54399) • United States 5 Sep 21

The first thing to do as a partner avoiding IKEA projects is well to NOT GO TO IKEA. Projects appear there as if by magic or simply by pointing, so the first rule of avoiding those projects is truly just staying away. In my case,...

Our Ikea spice rack et al

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381837) • Rockingham, Australia 29 Jun 21

DE (@DaddyEvil) asked about the spice rack in the kitchen so I thought I’d take a close up of it so that you can see it more clearly. The whole thing is from Ikea. The black rod is attached to the wall and comes with the basket,...

We did do two windows jobs this morning. I took the day off so we could work longer but that's all the work I could find. After lunch I went to Lowe's to talk about postponing the delivery of the appliances we ordered and then I...

Bad news or good news? I'm not yet sure.

Marsha @MarshaMusselman (38865) • Midland, Michigan 14 Jun 21

Our kitchen redo may be coming to a halt. I found out this afternoon via my sister that Ikea stock is low and there might be up to a six month wait. We don't know if it's because manufacturers can't find workers or whether people...

I wondered where all the parts were

Judy Evans @JudyEv (381837) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Jun 21

We ordered two office chairs from Ikea and I was wondering how difficult they’d be to put together. But as it happened, it was very easy. The seat can be raised or lowered, and there is a certain amount of tilt to them. The...
