I would assume you will be heading the Schaumburg IKEA as opposed to Bolingbrook. The Bolingbrook location was my first IKEA experience and I was super confused. Long story short we ended up walking the thing backwards (Warehouse > display area).
I just found out that the ikea shelving that I've been using isn't sold in the same color anymore. So now the conundrum is whether I go back and re-do all the shelving, or just have one that's a different color? Or put it off indefinitely until my wife forces an impulse decision because of the unshelved records everywhere?
Contrasting colours can be fun. Im actually a big fan of using loads of different types of woods in the various furniture in the same room, gives a nice effect,
