Ikea, Spring 2013. My God, it's Full of Flamingoes....

I'm lucky to live a fifteen minute drive from Northern Ireland's Ikea store, which means every six weeks I go in and have a nosy to see what's new.
Their summer range is just launching & it's a kitsch-lover's dream. Flamingoes, pineapples, bright oranges and blues, I could have spent a fortune.

What I did end up buying was reindeer meat, some summer straws for my morning iced coffees, and a packet of knives. When you live with a man, knives go missing- for fixing things. Pretty handy that you can pick up JUST knives at Ikea, rather than having to buy another 16 piece set. So many spoons in this house, it's like.... the opposite of The Matrix.
