New Ikea Catalog is out

[trish2]

For those who like Ikea, their new catalog is now in the stores.  Some of their products really help to make great use of every sq inch of space.  Plus the catalogs are free!!  Even if you don't buy any of their products, just looking at them often will give ideas how to squeeze the last little bit of storage space out of a small house.

An Ikea super store opened near us several months ago and I have said that I might never go to it; but you bring up a good point about ideas for storage.  Maybe I'll change my mind.

I was in Ikea yesterday picking up dressers for my girlfriend,  They had these rooms that were 500 400 and 300 square feet all with kitchen bathroom bedroom and dining room.  It was really cool to walk around a room the size of your cabin and see how you could lay it all out to maximize space in an organized way.

Below is a link to an article about how the Chinese are interacting IKEA.  Would we ever have the nerve to do this in the U.S.?
