When I have nothing by time on my hands, IKEA is one of my favorite stores to prowl around. Their new spring items have just arrived at their stores and in walking the aisles, I discovered some fabulous gift items for all those spring gift giving occasions (Mother’s Day, weddings, hostess gifts).
Check out five of my faves….
Angenam Bowl–$24.99
Years ago when I was traveling to Thailand, I purchases a handcrafted bowl that looks just like this one. Besides looking alike, my bowl is very heavy and was nowhere near the great price that this one is.
I love the hammered detail and the gold interior and think it would look great on a coffee table or bookcase shelf.
Lansboda Scented Candle–$3.99
After writing my Pops Of Pink post yesterday, I can’t help but be smitten with this beautiful candle. The faceted glass gives it a high-end look and the candle scent is pretty great too! Can’t beat a pretty candle for $3.99!
BarBar Tray–$7.99
I purchased some ugly plastic trays at the thrift store awhile back for $1.00 and have visions of turning them into something like these. The stripes are so fresh for spring and there are a thousand and one ways you could use these trays for decorating or entertaining.
p.s. I think MOM would love to have breakfast in bed on Mother’s Day, served on one of these trays.
Godta Mug–$2.99
Drinking coffee or tea every morning from one of these mugs is sure to put a smile on your face. If I were giving a set of these as a gift, I’d pair it with these napkins and this box of tea!
Bedarande Glass–$5.99
Oh how I love this, let me count the ways! These smoke grey goblets are simply gorgeous. The glass is a great weight and the style is beautiful. I can see these at a table set with white and silver china.
There are so many great items at IKEA, at great prices, which makes shopping their store so much fun. If love like IKEA as much as I do, you’ll also want to check out this Kitchen Cart, the Expedit Shelving in high-gloss red (stunning) and this $19.99 throw.
And, if you don’t have an IKEA in your area, don’t worry ’cause all of these items can be ordered on-line!
Happy Shopping!
