Should I buy or should I consider? The white blue cabinets look really nice and functional.
IKEA showrooms never fail to spark ideas, allowing shoppers to brainstorm and think creative.

IDEAS for bathroom.

Mirrors mirrors on the wall. More ideas for kitchen.
Multiple designs and hooks to cater to your fancy and concept.

Bright and colourful ideas for shower curtains and bedsheets are never dull at IKEA.

You might have guessed by now that our theme for this March is “Bathroom“.
Different shelfs, some use suckers others need drilling, all looks elegant and feels durable.

We could not resist these colourful suckers, they look so much better than the plain suckers.

IKEA showroom never fails to generate ideas on how to decorate our homes. We brought Boon Xin a cardboard “kitchen” so that she can pretend to cook dinner haha.

Grass for him, Flower for her. Synthetic plants are selling very well in IKEA.

Inspired by IKEA showroom displays, done with our shopping list, drilling and knocking starts.

Brought a buffalo home, her zodiac is cow 🙂

Our bathroom looks neater and slightly more colourful now, thanks to the colourful suckers.

New upgrades for our masterbedroom bathroom include shower screen and foldable mirror.

Before and after, we added some new stuffs to our bathrooms.

You can play those games where you have to guess the “differences” left and right picture.

IKEA knows your bedroom and bathroom are the most private areas of the home, and that the key to a happy home is a happy private life. To help with that, IKEA has introduced Fille Güte, a Shelf Help Guru who provides solutions to improve your private life. Checkout the tips and (intimate hilarious) video.
Connect with IKEA website and Fanpage.

Maybe one day, our bathrooms will give us a Resort feel 🙂

ps.. we are sponsored by IKEA to showcase a different theme each month. Mar is “Bed & Bath”, February “Living room makeover” and January “Let there be Light“.

NICE, our living room is much more spacious now.
Kids are keeping their toys and accessories into the colourful Trofast trays.
Everyone got their own set of colour, no more contention.

Neat and elegant, we can configure the cabinets in different orientation too.
Less messy, visually pleasing, we love how the colourful trays seem to increase our living room’s floor area.

Before and after IKEA living room makeover :p

Video : Fast forward, kids took 30 minutes to construct our Trofast

To digress a bit, we all know kids grow up fast. We have been living in Sengkang for 14 years! Our family size has grown bigger, and our decade-old furniture and accessories are showing signs of wear and tear.

When kids were growing and getting heavier, they like to jump from our sofas, chairs etc.

When we were house-tidying for Chinese Lunar New Year, we took the opportunity to replace some of the old furniture.

IKEA was decked in festive decorations, and the Chinese New Year mood is everywhere.

If shoppers are ever clueless about makeover ideas, we would recommend IKEA’s HDB rooms mockup. That was how we came across our Sofa design.

1. You can research and shortlist your ideas from the catalogue or mobile app.

2. Next collect the packaging from the racks.

3. Payment and load into car. We love the whole DIY concept at IKEA.

Kids, however have other ideas when they visit IKEA. Their FUN is not only confined to chicken wings, ice cream cones or Småland. The trolleys and luggage bags never fail to provide some sorts of entertainment for them!

Measuring tapes can be handy toys too (Daddy try to hide behind some Billy book shelves, so embarrassing haha)

But when it comes to real work, kids are very efficient with alan keys. With so many helping hands, we diy our own Trofast cabinet in under 30 minutes.

Besides Trofast, we got some additional storage with wheels.

With six family members, our laundry clothes are always piling like a hill. With the wheels, kids can now help to cart the laundry between living room, washer and bedrooms.

Before and after, we are confident our new sofa will have more seating space 🙂

The last thing on our shopping list, a three seater Kivik sofa, should last us ten years (warranty). We do not expect the kids to be jumping on the sofa anymore, three of them will be serving National Service come 2025.

Somehow, parents and kids could not agree on how the sofa will be laid out. We shall see.

Whatever it is, we are eagerly waiting for our new sofa’s arrival. Four more days 🙂

ps.. we are sponsored by IKEA to showcase a different theme each month. February is “Living room makeover” for us. You may be interested in January’s theme “Let there be Light“.
