My Weekend Trip to IKEA
This past weekend I went on a shopping spree at IKEA. I figured that it would be okay if I update my office space since I’ve had the same uncomfortable white wicker desk since I was seven. Now I have a spacious desk, and my knees don’t bump the top!
IKEA is a neat place to go to, because you walk through various model rooms and then pick out what you want in the warehouse. Although you have to put the furniture together, they have some sustainable options and products made from natural fibers and materials.
For under $450, I got a glass tabletop desk, office chair, filing cabinet, paper tray, rug and desk pad. To my surprise, everything was fairly simple to put together…I only messed up once and had to redo a step for the filing cabinet (this says a lot coming from me).
