Ikea should give me stock for how much we've shopped there.
Bedroom set, computer desks, guest bed, dining table/chairs, oh yeah, and a kitchen.
What the kitchen looked like before:

I hear you there
In some ways my home looks like an Ikea showroom LOL The only big pieces that are not from Ikea here are my sofa, coffee table, end tables, and bed.
Will try and get some pics up here soon....
BTW... love the work on your kitchen. Mine is still stock from what was done in my condo by the previous owners a couple years ago - bought a foreclosure that was rebuilt in 2007 - including a new kitchen
does anyone know if a remote signal will go through frosted glass? i want to put my cable box, atv, etc. in the drawers

i actually think thats plastic. my cousin has some wardrobes like that and its plastic.
yeah it probably is considering it is pretty cheap, and from ikea (not knocking ikea, great style, but everyone knows not the best materials). but i am guessing if it is a thin plastic, the signal won't go through?
just found it on IKEA. its polypropylene. So im guessing the signal wont go through
sorryAttachments
Grono lamp, Jonas desk, Moses chair, pencil/pen holder (can't really see) all from Ikea
Does your Moses chair lean back? Mine is rather solid and feels like it's going to dump me out the front. I can't lean back in it and it drives me NUTS!
Doesn't lean back, and I also hate that but at the price ($39) I can't complain. It's definitely not the comfiest chair, I can only spend about an hour and a half on it until I feel restless. I feel your pain.
i ended up finding this cabinet in the store, and got the glass doors
I.... AM..... SO....JEALOUS!!!
thats such an awesome collection! post the rest!
This is all stuff I got earlier this week as my nearest IKEA is about 4 hours away and in a different country, so it's not somewhere I'd just pop into. The prices are amazing, and I find the quality is very good (so far). Sorry but the lighting is a bit poor.
Here's seat I got for my daughter - she pulls the cover down to watch Peppa Pig on the laptop. In the background is a Lack TV unit awaiting out new TV. It was about a foot too long, but I managed to cut it down to size.
Also there's an unfinished setup for the playroom. I liked the buckets and shelves for storing stuff and the place to put the tv. I still need to fix it to the wall and the bit that's behind the TV will be stuck higher up on the wall. It's the trofast range. There's also a sofabed in the room in case we have a load of guests and need to put them up.
I have an Expedit setup in the office upstairs (again unfinished), but I'm too lazy to go upstairs and take a pic tonight.

I am considering buying a Jonas desk. I just can't decide between the one with the cabinets or the one with the pull out portion! Ahh, decisions!
I have a few IKEA things in my room...
VANNA mirror
Trash bin
Alarm clock (sorry about the dusty surface- dark furniture always makes dust more noticeable).
Unfortunately, the LACK shelf in black-brown was unavailable at the time when I went to IKEA, but will be back in stock in 5 weeks time.
I've also got a few coat-hangers from IKEA in my wardrobe, and a BONETT full length mirror which is yet to be put up behind my wardrobe door. There's also a few things around the house that are from IKEA such as a vase, picture on canvas, mousepad, drawer organisers, ice trays, drinking glasses and measuring utensils.
