A Little IKEA Trip

I headed off to IKEA last night in search of some of the orange cat fabric I have seen online.  
I managed to snag a few yards for myself and for my friend.  
It is kind of a light weight canvas.  
It would be great for bags or for outdoor cushion covers.


These bees were kind of cool too.


As I was walking out I saw everyone's favorite cart and say WHATTTTT???? 
 Look at those magnetic bins attached to the sides!!!  
One more way to increase storage without increasing the footprint in my sewing room!  
I always seem to have little "things" that need a home.


I wasn't keen on the food pics, but they come out and the top is clear.  
This way you can see inside the bin.  
Or I suppose you could make a photo and put it on the cover too.


Another thing I do in my room to maximize the space utilization is put my mini ironing board 
on top of my cart.  
It's handy and it is movable.  I
 even recovered the board with the metalic reflective peel and stick ironing board cover material. (made by Bo Nash and you can find it here
I love using this! 
 Easy to change and multiplies the heat.


Another space saver is a shoe holder that fits over the door.  
I use it on the back side of my door in my sewing room.  
It's a great place for me to keep things like cards, floss, tule, and bits and bobs that are too big for those canisters and not used frequently but I can never seem to find otherwise! 
 LOL.


As I was taking photos in my room, Hallie was "helping".  
You can tell the difference between her and Autumn as Autumn is a little bit of a thing and 
Hal is a chubba wubba.  
HAHA, I love my calicos!


Enjoy your weekend and make time to do something that makes you happy!
