Leah was wanting to freshen up her room a little. So off we went on Saturday to Ikea to see what we could pick up for a budget of £20. Below is the results....(we´ll we spent a little more than £20 - but just a few pounds more, so we did well!) She decided she wanted the room red and white - a true Dane!! haha
We had fun doing it and it didnt take long to hang new curtains, put a few stickers on the wall and a few pillows on the bed...nice and easy and yet a bit of a change!!
Oh, by the way I was encouraged to seek a job in Ikea by the woman who looks after the hiring of personnel for the different Ikeas in Denmark. We were sitting over from each other at our nieces confirmation. She was a lovely person and when I heard she worked in Ikea I was bumming about the place (I didnt realise what she did there!! haha) We had a good old chat and later in the day she asked if I ever considered looking for a job there cause they were always looking for people who had a passion for it!!! So you never know, I might end up in there yet!!
Laura if you worked in Ikea you would have NO MONEY!!! You would be spending ALL your wages there - especially on the bargains you would be getting with the staff discount!!!!
Leah's room looks lovely - red's my favourite colour! Laura and Ikea?????? I don't know about that. I think the branch would quickly become known as "that shop where the mad irish woman works".
My name is Laura and I come from Belfast, Northern Ireland. I am married to Kristian who is Danish, so for the past 25 years I have lived in Denmark. We live in a small town north of Copenhagen. We have 3 kids, Sara (24 years), Andrew (22 years) and Leah(18 years).
Kristian and I are both Christians. It´s so great to be in a relationship with God and know He is there helping us and loving us no matter what life may throw our way. Life has meaning and purpose.
I started this blog mainly as a diary so I could look back and see what we had done as a family over the years. Then I realised it was a great way for my family and friends in Ireland to follow our life here in Denmark. It´s not the most exciting blog - it´s just life - our life :-)
