NEW FURNITURE IN SNUG ROOM.

We have not bought new furniture for many years. When we moved from London to Cornwall
we had a lot of furniture which we just fitted into this house. but was never right for the
rooms.

So I thought it was about time we brought bits to actually go into the rooms.
The first room I am starting with is the snug room. This room is mainly used by our
son to play games and do his homework .
So I wanted pieces  a bit more modern, but also bits that would sit nicely in my
old house.


So this is what I brought. All from Ikea.




I love this cabinet it reminds me of lockers at school.




This side table is lovely and colourful and each section lifts up for extra storage.




 I brought two of these laptop tables . I needed one for myself to use in the lounge instead of
 keep moving the coffee table.




And lastly this bright yellow sofa. Just a two seater but a perfect size for the room.





I now need to redecorate the room .
But first I need the electricians to come round to add a few new sockets.
 
I was not sure if I would like the furniture as I ordered it all on line,
But we are all very pleased.

    1. Thank you Gill. I must admit more modern pieces are now creeping into the house. It's funny how your taste's change over the years.

  3. I really like your choices. We used to go to IKEA in Portland, Oregon when our daughter lived there. Now we don't have one anywhere near us and I miss it. But to drive 360 miles one way just to go to IKEA negates any money savings doesn't it? I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of your rooms. Those lockers look just perfect for teens gaming area.
    Blessings,

    1. Hi Betsy. Our nearest one is 2 -3 hours away and so I have never been,.Only when I lived in London. I would go to Ikea there.So I took a chance by just looking on line then ordering. I am really pleased with everything, but it did take me two days to put everything togeather as it's all flatpacked.

  5. I think you made some good choices in your new furniture. We need new living room furniture as our cat clawed it all up down to the wooden frame. I should look on the IKEA website! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

  6. We used to have one of those laptop tables, it was really useful, and sturdy for the price. I really like the side table too, I haven't seen them before.

    1. I do not know how I coped before I had this laptop table. When I was in the lounge I used to drag the coffee table
      next to the sofa. Which annoyed my hubby as he could not reach his tea. Ha! Ha!
