Among some practical things we needed to take care of with Leo we dropped by at Ikea and of course, we did not come back with empty hands. I do have a new home in mind and I would like to decorate it but I need to do it step by step and when we already live there (lessons learnt). But some things i could not resist.
Black and white candle holders. Something in their shape, that little circle on the side - make them very special. Tall candles are very festive always. And this candle holder placed single on a simple wooden table - what could be more stylish? white one is porcelain (at ridiculous 1,95 €) and black is made of heavy metal and is slightly more pricey (5,95€). I think I have seen similar in some design store but can't remember where.
And Leo got his first traffic toys. Believe it or not, there is not a single car in this family yet. Now he got the traffic mat and a wooden railroad with an extra train. I love the feeling of wooden toys. And they last so much longer. Happy play moments, Leo and Laura!
We have the same train set (+ quite a lot more noadays) and the boys really love it! So much cheaper than Brio, but just as good + one can later extend it with special pieces from Brio.
ReplyDeleteMari, so are those brio trains compatible with this Ikea railroad?
ReplyDeleteYes they are! Really like your Easter decorations by the way. I am glad to see that someone else is crazy about the Easter (eggs) as well! :)
