I have been reading a few different blogs over the past year, and these are part of the reason that I decided to start blogging. I love that each of the blogs I follow provide a little bit of something that I try to bring into my everyday life. There are tons of different link-ups that take place on Fridays and after thinking about it for a while I have decided to link-up with Andrea - Momfessionals, Erika - A Little Bit of Everything Blog, and Narci - Grace and Love Blog for Friday Favorites!
The first of my Friday Favorites is going to focus on a store that I only grew to love in the past year - Ikea. There is an Ikea store that is less than 5 minutes from my house. I can always find something that I want, and sometimes exactly what I need for my home. Jonathan even joins me sometimes, but only really enjoys the food that they serve. Here are a few of my favorite Ikea products that I have around the house.

I love my Ingathorp Dining Table, which is extendable with 1 extra leaf. The table can seat 4-6 when it is not extended, and up to 8 when it is. It is awesome in our dining room and looks great with the Liatorp Sideboard. While they are not a set, they definitely coordinate and look like they were designed to go together. There are many other items I want in the Liatorp collection, but this is my first piece. Here you will find mine decorated for Christmas!
For at least 6 months I was interested in the Raskog Utility Cart, but had absolutely no reason to purchase it. However, after I received the Silhouette Cameo for an early Christmas gift from Jonathan, and a ton of accessories and supplies, I bought the cart as a place to store everything. It works well, and tucks away in our office area. Its perfect, I love the color, and it is very inexpensive.

My most recent purchase, that I made yesterday in fact, were the Kassett Boxes. I keep all of my cards that I receive in photo boxes on the bookshelves in the office area of our house. Unfortunately those that I had been using were full, and I couldn't find any additional that matched since they were about 4 years old. These boxes are sold in a 2/pack for only $4.99. I bought three packs, but am only needing to use 4 right now. The two extra boxes will be stored until I need them, so that I don't run into any issues with finding matching boxes in the future.

I often search Pinterest for Projects using Ikea Products, and have found an awesome closet storage solution using this Kallax Shelving Unit. I have not yet purchased it since I need to work on completing a few projects first. Stay tuned for an update on this in the upcoming weeks!
It looks like I only buy white pieces from Ikea, that is something I didn't realize until I wanted to show you all of my Ikea favorites. I hope that you all have a great weekend and don't forget to link-up and share your favorite things!
