Ikea recently crowned me one of
their winners in the
TOGETHER WE EAT contest
where I submitted my story
and recipe for Swedish Pancakes.
To get my recipe and read why this dish has been so
important to me since I was a toddler, go here
and scroll through.
Someday soon I will share a whole stylish post
on our family’s pancakes (which means I better
get to decorating the fixer’s kitchen!) to give
them the respect they deserve.
A few things I bought for the fixer
with my winnings include
these Ingert Curtains,
a couple Molger benches,
these Sanela cusion covers,
and Rens sheepskins.
I still love Ikea’s Stockholm rug,
and these cushions.
Unfortunately, there was not a Sinnerlig daybed in stock,
and this was so disappointing since I really wanted
to take one for a test drive.
This Sinnerlig daybed appears to be so versatile!
So grateful to be a winner, and you should definitely
not be shy about submitting your recipes and stories
for such contests…someone has to win!!
Peace to you right where you are.

Kudos to you Michele! What a lovely win and you made stellar choices! Your design style has always intrigued me and look forward to each and every post!

Congrats! I love Ikea, my daughter who lives in Madrid is fixing her home with all Ikea furniture and things and in the meantime eats there too.
Thanks for the pancake recipe. I will pin it.
Hugs,
FABBY

By the way Michelle, I love all your Ikea décor and you have your own wonderful touch.

Congratulations, I am in love with the first image, love that room so lovely!!! Of course you know how I love the rug, since I have on in our great room!! Hope all is well with you and yours, thank you for your visits and special comments on my blog, YOU are the BEST!
ha! anything with those bold black and white stripes reminds me of you, kathysue, and they are such happy stripes! xox
Yay!! I too like their soft rugs;) IKEA is a great spot to find home décor. You've won some great pieces!
The Stockholm rug is indeed fantastic. My kids love it so much I've made it a parent control leverage – don't want to eat that soup…OK, then I'll take away your favorite bear rug…Tell me, am I a good mom?

ha! it's been a long while since I had to bribe my kids to eat, believe me, that will change!
woo hoo!! you won something! I never win anything, which might have to do with the fact that I never enter anything 🙂 but I love what you picked…I'm off to read about those pancakes …
