Another balmy day here in Chicago. So weird when it gets warm but nothing has caught up, 70s and no green to be found anywhere. Why am I always talking about the weather. I'm getting old. And I feel like I've written those exact words before. Further evidence.
On to more important matters. These or these? (sorry I had to take those links out because that store kept spamming me.) I'm playing the this or that game quite a bit lately. Mostly about shelving and bedding. I'm obsessed with shelves and sheets. I'm trying to find the perfect shelving/toy storage solutions for Oscar's room and for the playroom. And trying to figure out toddler bed or twin for Oscar. Make a quilt or buy bedding. I was stuck on these for a while but then yesterday I decided to make something myself and bought up a bunch of this fabric at reprodepot...
And shelving. Seems so simple. Especially if you live in an Ikea area, which thank god, we do. But I can't find anything that I want. Nothing's just right. I'm trying to figure out a great Ikea hack and still not having much luck. I was hoping to have everything move in ready but I think it's going to be a case of shopping garage sales and flea markets and sales all summer until I find the perfect things. Of course they sell all the perfect things at torturous places like Modern Seed... the $500 toddler bed, the $500 shelves, the $3,000 best napping chair. Jerks.
