Ikea Malm Drawers - Stylish + Affordable

Ikea Malm Drawers are a really affordable way to create some stylish storage options.

At only $99 for the white 3 drawer version you cant go wrong!

With ample drawer space, sleek shadow line handles & lots of bench top surface, they look great almost anywhere!

I use them as bedside tables which both look good, & give us plenty of drawer space.

They are also a great addition to a wardrobe, office or living room.

Picture Ledge

We move into our new place next Thursday!!!! 'Im so excited' is my theme song right now :)

Have had a few trips to ikea in the last few weeks where i spotted these Ribba picture ledges.

Think id like to try them somewhere in our new place.

Could be a cool way to have all my current magazine subscriptions on display in the office.

Or a different way to have beautiful books displayed....or 'pictures' of course!

Ikea Malm in the Bedroom

Im a bit of a fan of the simple Ikea 'malm' drawers.

We have the 3 drawer version as bedside tables - hello storage!!

At $100 each {in white} check out how affordable & stylish they can be in the bedroom!

and with the addition of some hardware they totally transform!

Malm - an Ikea gem!

Great stylish drawers used as a sideboard in this room right?

Well its the Ikea malm 6 drawer dresser and its only $399!

I think this would look great in any room & the 3 drawer version would be a good bedside table too! Ive also seen it with a long cushion ontop as a window seat with drawers! Genius!

Get the look - Modern Bohemian on a budget!

Happy Monday All! Hope your weekend was good - i had a fairly relaxing one as id written it off to recover from the trip to the dentist on friday but seem to have recovered well (i thought id be in a world of pain but no....maybe thats why this guy is so expensive??) In any case int involved not doing much at all as i wasnt allowed to drive!

Saw this 'modern boho' living room a few weeks ago & thought id do a round-up of items that could make this look for you!

Take one french style lounge from Complete Pad

Or this 'Chinoisere' daybed from La Maison would work well too!

La Maison $1990

 + Persisk rug from IKEA $449

+ some Ruby Star traders cushions from complete pad

+ Ikea trollstra side table $149

& maybe a ruby star traders ottoman or 2 for good measure!

Add a pair of White bookshelves 

Malval Buffet & hutch from La Maison & then simply add a pair of Arstid wall lights to the inside of  each from Ikea  -which are a total bargain at only $35 each & have a gorgeous pleated shade!

Then add some of your favorite prints (try etsy!) in black or white 'Ribba' frames from Ikea

By Popular demand! Bedrooms! Ikeas' best kept secret!

Ikeas Edland Bed

A great beachy look here - a few meteres of sheer fabric can dress up the bed frame.

The simple shelf on the end of the bed is a great look if you have the room.

Good to store & display some favorite books or the winter blankets!

The central pendant light is a nice idea to steal here

Im loving this room - the wallpaper, the footstools, great lamp...and the pool outside!

Exposed brick for a more edgy look.

Check out this modern version of the four poster bed!

And it doesnt cost a bomb - thats right - its from IKEA!

The Edland Bed is $629

The top picture is the Ikea bed from the catalouge & the ones below are some great examples of it (or beds that are identical & surely cost way more) styled up with great linen etc!
