A fun day out can be spent at an IKEA store. Drop the kids off to play with the babysitters, grab a bite to eat, and have fun exploring the store.

IKEA furnishings cost less because they do not come assembled; putting together an IKEA piece is simple.

  • Assembly is so easy that the instructions for each step is a picture diagram showing one exactly how and where to place items together.

Before assembling make sure that you have all of the parts, components, screws, nuts, bolts, etc., as per the instruction sheet tells you.

  • If anything is missing IKEA has extras on hand, just bring your receipt to the store and they will gladly give you what you are missing to complete the project.

IKEA furnishings are not junky like many believe. Instead you save money with IKEA furnishings because you carry them out and put the pieces together yourself. Of course there are levels of quality. You can get furnishings that are cheaper, being crafted using particle board and/ or plastic, but then there are other pieces that will cost a little more but are crafted out of solid wood.

Make your day out a family adventure. The little ones will have fun playing and the restaurant has great food. Don’t forget to pick up kiddies from play time before you leave. Purchase your lovely new furnishings. Before heading out of the store stop and buy some Swedish meatballs for dinner and grab a delicious $1 frozen yogurt cone.

When you get home make it a fun time putting together your brand new piece of furniture. Don’t worry, you can do it; never be afraid to dance!

We love IKEA. Walking around the store provides many innovative design ideas for every space in the abode. If you have not visited an IKEA it is worth checking out. IKEA’s can be found nationwide in the United States and worldwide in many countries.

IKEA has wonderful furnishings

This is a great outing for the entire family. IKEA provides a well supervised play area for you to sign in and drop off the young ones to giving you a pleasant shopping experience. The second floor restaurant has delicious food at great prices; check out the Swedish meatballs, to enjoy a nice lunch or dinner. For a quick bite pick up a hot dog or have a frozen yogurt at the snack bar located in their Swedish Food Market outside the register area.

The best part of IKEA is browsing the merchandise.

  • Take your time and be patient as you wind yourself around the showroom.
  • Look at all of the sample rooms for inspiration.
  • Check out the living room furnishings and the dining room furnishings.
  • The bedroom furniture is comfy and practical.

    great bedroom furnishings in every style

  • Do not forget the office; great desks, bookcases, and accessories.
  • IKEA now has beautiful bathroom vanities and sinks; do not miss them.

    great bathroom furniture

  • The kitchen area provides computer workstations to work on your own design ideas, as well as all appliances that you would need to complete a kitchen. Staff designers are available to assist in the designing process.

Many think that IKEA means cheap and low quality. This is not true. They have all qualities of furnishings.

Their items require assembly which results in savings to the consumer. Compare their furniture to similar assembled pieces in the better stores and the savings are remarkable. As long as the furniture is assembled properly you will have a wonderful and stable piece that your guests will think you purchased at a designer store.

The showroom will lead you to a staircase leading down to the self-serve area.

  • Find interesting lighting, fun art, kitchen wares, fabulous area rugs, along with plants, window treatments, and fantastic accessories for the home and office.

You can check out the IKEA catalog for inspiration before you head out. The catalog makes for fun bedtime reading.

Enjoy, never be afraid to dance!
