Ikea, I'm sooo over you.

But I love you.  Being "broke" is only so horrible when your excitement over new furniture has to compete with your despise for Ikea and their instruction manuals.  And lack of explanation.  Just hell.

My dresser arrived and thank the Lord for the delivery men because I couldn't even slide the boxes across my studio to where I wanted to assemble the dresser.  Fast forward five hours, 7 angry snap chats, 2 Stellas and countless mini tantrums - I got my dresser!

So so so SO nice to have a home for my clothes and a "junk" drawer.  Storage is everything!  It makes my space feel significantly more homey and makes me even more impatient to keep the decorating momentum going.

I decided to put it across from my closets.  Eventually I will get a more decorative, smaller dresser to go in that spot and will move this piece across from the foot of my bed for a TV.  For now, I plan to put my Donald poster propped up against the back and am on the hunt for a jewelry tray or something decorative to balance out the orchid.  If I get my lamp here from home, that will definitely go on here as well!

So happy to share my space with you as I slowly make it a home.  I am sore and fried from battling Ikea all day, but I'm sure I'll makeup with Ikea tomorrow.
