Don’t know about you but one of the things I love to do is going for an Ikea trip and this is not something that happens really often but last weekend we headed there for the last summer sales day (it was due, you know what I mean!) and we literally ended up to spend our entire afternoon there until the closing time – it’s just that they have cakes and ice creams and orange juice and free swedish coffee in their dining area, so…

Needless to say we bought stuff, very nice stuff I’m so pretty excited about, but one thing I really love about our Ikea trips is that as soon as we start soaking up the atmosphere of every single kitchen / living room / bedroom, we start seeing ourselves in a foreseeable future living in some of that furnitures, we start making plans, talking about what we love and see which tastes we share and which ones not, we start dreaming about a future together, a home for ourselves and every single second we spend in there is all about us and our relationship growing a lot, which might sounds stupid to some of you, but sometimes what really makes a relationship stronger is sharing dreams and plans together and to me those really are the best moments and memories I love to go back to when I think of how we are growing together as a couple.

Something nice we also so sometimes is simply buy something that we both know will come with us in our home in the future, little investments that might sound so overstated but have so much value to me and to our relationship. It means we’re constantly conscious we’ll live together at some point, that we both believe in a future to be shared with each other and somehow those very little investments and plans bind us deeply and more and more every single time, and make a future together much more close.

But up to the interesting stuff now, here’s a list of what we bought from our last trip to Ikea! Sometimes you just find the most amazing deals there…
