Is it the knowledge that if you go to their store you can get loads of cheap gadgets you never knew you needed, and get Swedish foods on the way out? (I had two friends who actually went to IKEA just to get cheap hotdogs, they have vege ones too...)
Sidenote: I always go to IKEA with an idea of what I want, but end up leaving with a bunch of other stuff that all of a sudden I really need. I think that this is something that happens to a lot of people....
Is it the bright colours and stylish shapes of their furnishings?
Is it the model rooms that they have scattered throughout their store?
Is it because I have Swedish blood?

.... who can tell?
All I know is that as soon as I settle down in a new place in the NE come 2009, I will be making a trip to IKEA to work on my decor.
Here are just a few of their items that I love.
I really like their warm reds and yellows, their innovative coffee tables and shelves, and their kitchenware, which reminds me a lot of Dansk.
