As I walked over to enjoy (read: covet), what to my wondering eye should appear?
A zipper. A glorious zipper.
Do you know what that means?
Slipcovers.
Slipcovers from Ikea.
Ikeas that I drooled over (but didn't visit) in Germany and Italy.
I had seen these in an advertisement for Ikea in a magazine and knew they would be perfect for my room makeover. Now to see them in real life was almost more than I could bear.
The problem? There isn't an Ikea within 400 miles of my home.
Until now. Today, I was just minding my own business, checking my email when a pop-up add appeared. Normally I completely ignore these. But it said: New Ikea in N.C.
Wwhhaatt?!
All I can say is: ROAD TRIP!!!!
Oh, to have an Ikea so close. It's like having Disney World move next door!
I'm really trying to not get my hopes up, as I have heard Ikea can be a hit-or-miss kind of place. But those slipcovers! I'm salivating.
PS: If any of you have been to Ikea lately, and know the price on these slipcovers, or have any suggestions do tell!

LOVE those chairs! I'm in need of an IKEA slipcover myself. I know two friends that have shopped recently..Stephanie and Heather. I'm sure they would share some info with you!

Amen, sister! I am in Charlotte, NC and CAN NOT wait for Feb. 18th! I will be among the first in line as it's been a long while since I've been to the Ikea in Va. Good luck finding your chairs! I've heard there's another online shop that makes slipcovers for all Ikea furniture - I think I saw it @ Make it Lovely...I'll check!
I found it...the website is..

That would be so perfect for you!! I really hope that you will be able to find the covers that you are looking for. Those pictures are gorgeous and I love how you checked out the zipper! I would have done the very same thing! :o)
You'll have to keep us posted!

Ps. I have never been to IKEA and I have heard of a store called "Oops" that I also have never been to. Are you familiar with that one?
Don't have an Ikea any where close, but those are great slipcovers. Jackie
