Ever gone shopping at IKEA with a toddler? Over the last few months, we have been spending a substantial amount of time at IKEA. The reasoning is two fold: 1) because, if you've been reading this blog for a while will know, we have bought a ton from IKEA for our house reno (our kitchen cabinetry, bathroom vanities, light fixtures, etc etc.... and 2) because it's such an easy place to eat ...

installing IKEA kitchen cabinetry: our experience
A few weeks ago, in this post, you saw the design and direction for our IKEA kitchen. We purchased all of our cabinetry and some appliances (dishwasher, hood range) during one of IKEA's kitchen events, which I totally recommend. We walked away with about $1600 in a gift card to use on future purchases. It has come in super useful already, considering we're at IKEA on a near-weekly basis these ... View the Post

Shower Design: Subway Tile and Marble Tile Niche
Let's get back to the progress in the kids/guest bathroom. It feels like the one room in the house that is somewhat close to being finished. Maybe because it's the smallest? In any case, hallelujah. In the post last week you saw how we put down charcoal grey tiles in a herringbone pattern and installed the IKEA vanities. Well, let's get to the shower design with subway tile and marble tile ...
