I love it! Even though my husband loves IKEA just as much as me, I wish Richmond was doing this too :p
My recent post Breaking the rules
Jonathan isn't old enough for the creche and he so wants to go play in the giant ball pit!
I'd buy a Billy bookcase - not for storing books as he's not much of a reader; but for displaying all of his hand-made Fathers Day gifts of years past!!
This is exactly what I've been looking for! Now my daughter and I can browse at leisure with son in the SMALAND and Dad in the MANLAND! No more whinging! I would buy him an attractive filing cabinet so he doesn't drag those horrible old things out of the garage into our bedroom/home office.
My own father has passed so i would get hubby the POÄNG
Rocking-chair to bring out his inner porch dweller.
Shelving. He is soo unorganised, he could definately do with some help.
