This weekend we decided that it was time to finish putting away the rest of our gifts that have been sitting in our living room since April. After we got back from our honeymoon we were able to make room in our kitchen to put most of our gifts away, but we still ended up having quite of few gifts that we just didn’t have room for. So a couple of weeks ago we made a trip to IKEA to look for a storage piece to purchase.
After looking around the showroom, we found this cabinet that we both really liked and thought would go well with our current furniture.
When we went to the self-serve warehouse to retrieve the hutch we suddenly realized that this item would not fit in our car. Thankfully Denny, a family friend allowed us to borrow his truck this weekend, so we were finally able to bring it home.
We also found another peice of furniture that we could use for additional storage during our second trip back. It was only $69.99 and we just couldn’t pass up this great deal!
After two days of (Jonathon) putting together our IKEA purchases here is the final result!
Not to bad, eh?
We were both satisfied with the end result. We still are working on getting rid of the oversized chair and getting the decorating down right, but we are super happy to no longer have a piles of wedding gifts in our living room!
What did you all do this weekend?
