Trip to Ikea!

Hi, earlier this week I went to Ikea with my Auntie, I didn't plan on buying anything but I thought you might be interested in what I picked up. So here's what I brought....  
I will link all of them below.

Plant & Pot!
When I was sitting in Ikea restaurant eating my customary Swedish meatballs, I noticed these flowers in the cutest pot. I couldn't decide if the flowers were real or not. However as soon as I went down to the market place I found them, they are fake but don't look plasticy at all! So surprise surprise I just had to get them. I'm not great with keeping flowers but I think they are 

a great way to brighten up any room! I also had to get this cute pot with the birds and flower design too. 







Makeup brush holder!
I have been looking for a make up brush pot since my Mum got me my Real Techniques make up brushes for Christmas! When I saw this pot I fell in love! Its metal, originally a plant pot I think, but with its lace like look I think it is beautiful. I have filled it with some jewel beads just so it holds my bushes upright and apart. I think it just looks really pretty and girly.





Candles!
So I've recently become a big fan of candles, but these Ikea candles have stolen my heart! I got the tropical fruits one with just smells like summer and holidays which gives off a fruity fresh sent. I also got the vanilla one too, which is a much warmer sent which is very relaxing. Not only do these candles smell great, they have gorgeous glass container, they were also only £0.95!!! I wasn't going to talk about how much things are but these are the best bargain its worth shouting about! So anyone who wants a great smelling and looking candle but don't want to break the bank... Get to Ikea!!



  



                                                            


Umbrella!
Ok this one is a little more random and doesn't really fit with the home wear feel of this blog post but it was another great bargain! As any of you who live in the UK know we've had awful weather lately and the wind has been so strong every umbrella I've used has broken. So I decided to get a better one and this Ikea Family umbrella is perfect! Its so strong and opens with the push of a button which is fun. It comes in a range of colours (navy, black/grey, orange & pink) all with the white circle design. This umbrella is exactly what I was looking for big enough to cover me and any bag I'm carrying and all of this just for £2!! Definitely worth it!
 


So that's all things I brought from Ikea, this post is just to show you what is out there and what I got just in case your interested! So I hope this gives you some ideas to brighten up your room or keep you dry in the rain!
