A few weeks ago I visited our local Ikea. I don't get there often and I'm always really excited to see what fabulous home decor items they're selling for a song. On this particular visit I found some really cool glass bud vases for a ridiculous price.
Next to the vase section there were tons of fake flowers. At first glance the flowers were not as cheap as I had hoped they would be. But I did find some really bright and fairly inexpensive flowers that I thought would look perfect in my lil 'ole vases.
Aren't they adorable and so very Swedish? I loved the triangular shape and the little raised bumps all over them.
The flowers reminded me of the dahlias I used to pick at a flower cutting farm (ever been to one of these?) back in the day. Dahlias make GREAT cut flowers.
Don't ya just love 'em?
I'm smitten with both the vases and the flowers.
When was the last time you visited YOUR Ikea?

Love the little dots on the vases and the flowers are pretty. They look like Gerbera Daisies. Cute!

Wonderful finds. I love the Marketplace at Ikea because you never know what treasures you'll find.
ReplyDeleteSooo very cute. I've never been to an Ikea. I am definitely missing out
ReplyDeleteI don't think there is an Ikea anywhere near me. After seeing your buys, I've gotta do a search and find one!!! Those are too cute.
ReplyDeleteThose vases are really cute, Kathleen--I like those bright flowers, too. Ikea is always so fun!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree...I am Smitten with IKEA, unfortunately the closest one is 3 hours away :( I already created a wish list on the IKEA website so I know what I NEED to get during my next visit!
