Remember when I made that Big Bag<\/a> from a couch cushion cover from the IKEA As-Is section?
\nIt was a….cinch!
\nHeh heh.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd just reminds of the many reasons I love IKEA: Smart, affordable, simple….and creatively inspiring.<\/p>\n

Funny thing looking at those old photos….I’m wearing the same shirt I eventually turned into my semi-homemade Maternity Shirt Tutorial<\/a>.\u00a0 Wow.\u00a0 Was I really pregnant<\/a> THREE years ago??
\nIt’s weird to think that I’ll never go through that again.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nBut it’s not weird to think how many more countless times I will go to IKEA.
\nHaah.\u00a0 I guess they’re part of the family!
\nAnd probably part of your family too.<\/p>\n

So I was thrilled when the curator of the IKEA museum in Sweden contacted me about my Sewing Room<\/a> from the old house.\u00a0 The museum (which is not open yet) is currently putting together exhibits for both the BILLY Bookcase and the KLIPPAN sofa—showing how universally loved these items are.\u00a0 And showing what people do with them.\u00a0 She noticed that I use my BILLYs to hold fabric and asked if I would contribute my story to their blog.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nUm.\u00a0Yes please.
\nSo if you’d like to hear a little BILLY tale, head on over<\/a>!<\/p>\n

And if you have your own story to share, you can submit on the site as well!
\nThere are many fun stories and photos on there.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nOkay.
\nOver and out.
\nI need an IKEA cinnamon roll.<\/p>\n

(please note: this post is NOT sponsored by IKEA.\u00a0 I just truly love them.)
\n(and p.s…..can you spot any of the First Day Dress<\/a> fabrics in there??\u00a0 I see three….)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
