IKEA Locations

I’d been stuck at home bc of snow, so started a marathon of old episodes. I noticed something I never did before. Remember the “grandma” couch (as Kody called it) at the consignment furniture store? Kody and everyone talked her out of getting and instead getting the odd contemporary curved couch and chairs. Well has anyone ever noticed that the grandma couch is also at her house?! Along with the weird curved couch and chairs. Makes me wonder if she went back and got it as well later? 😄 Has anyone else ever noticed this?

I kind of feel bad now. When I first applied for Home Depot, I applied for Lot Associate, and then when I got the email to start the screening process, I clicked on the link and it said that Lot Associate was no longer available. But if I chose another one of the job positions that were open, then they'd interview me for it. So I just went with Sales Associate because I was desperate to get out of the workplace that I was already in at the time. And so when I went in for my interview, I told the guy who was interviewing me that I had no retail experience, I have no sales experience, I'd only ever worked in warehouses, and I could tell right off the bat that this guy was not going t...

Heyy girlies! I’m looking for a dresser and would love any advice you have about where to go in LA. Ideally a place that doesn’t feel/look super cheap but isn’t crazy expensive. Probs $1000 at the higher end of my budget. Ty for any recs!!

Just got my 2nd AR15 finished today. Learned a lot from my first from Diamondback and improved upon it in every way. I shoot ambidextrous so instead of going with a Bad Lever and aftermarket ambi mag release I went with a proper full ambidextrous lower from Griffin Upper receiver went with a BCM 14.5 and a surefire 3 prong flash hider pinned and welded. Magpul furniture is the same between both and went with a vented Raptor handle this time as opposed to the standard one. Geissele SDE trigger. 2 stage and super crispy break. Feels a lot nicer than the milspec trigger in my DB15. Waiting on the optic setup on backorder from primary arms. Gonna be rocking a 5x prism with a piggyback re...

Gymnastic rings are an awesome piece of equipment for building serious upper body strength, but they need proper care to stay safe and last longer. Here's what you need to know about keeping them in top shape. ## Basic Cleaning Steps For wooden rings, start by wiping them down with a slightly damp cloth after each workout. Sweat and hand oils can build up quickly, making the surface slippery and gross. Don't soak them in water though – wood absorbs moisture and can warp or crack. If your rings are really dirty, mix a tiny bit of mild soap with water. Wipe them gently, then immediately dry with a clean towel. Let them air dry completely before storing them away. Plastic or met...

Trying to get into arch viz. Made this as practice. Modelled the building, but the furniture is from the Ikea Blender plugin. It's not following a floorplan - mainly this was an exercise in trying to achieve realistic lighting and getting something closer to photorealism. Thanks for checking it out!

YOU DONT NEED IT. This ain't for everyone but it's for the people who come in everyday to return and buy new **** just try it on!!! Don't buy beauty products you'll never use. Don't buy **** you don't need cause it fills that void in your heart just save me and my coworkers the time please. This is for the people who come in with multiple returns multiple receipts like if your gonna return everything you bought why did you buy it??? Is it a mental illness? A shopping addiction? Are you unable to use your eyes and see all the furniture you picked out was ugly when you were in the store? Did you forget you had rent due??? LIKE **** I get not wanting to try on clot...

Hi everyone 👋. What tools do you recommend to upload a floor plan to get interior decor / furniture layout options? Ideally an Al tool would overlay furniture onto the floor plan. Based on trying various apps, it seems the technology is not there yet. They seem to all want to decorate pictures of a room, not floor plans with immutable dimensions. So are there tools where I can place furniture onto my floor plan directly using pieces from nice furniture stores?

Your mandated community service, whether mandated by a court or a school, will need to be done at a registered nonprofit organization. It MAY be possible to do it through a government agency, like a city or state parks department. And you need to know it will be acceptable to the court or your school BEFORE you begin it. A registered nonprofit is one that has a federal tax i.d. number. If you aren't sure if an organization is a registered nonprofit, ask if they have a federal tax id number, or look up the organization on [Guidestar.org](http://www.guidestar.org/), a database of all registered nonprofit organizations in the USA. Your mandated community service *may or may not* be ...

Gemini # Squirrels: Problems what is the deal with squirrels? Why do people have so many problems with them? Squirrels, while often seen as cute and an iconic part of urban and suburban landscapes, can quickly become a significant nuisance and even a danger to homeowners. The "deal with them" largely boils down to their natural behaviors clashing with human environments. Here's a breakdown of why people have so many problems with squirrels: **1. Destructive Chewing:** * **Constantly Growing Teeth:** Like all rodents, squirrels have incisor teeth that never stop growing. To keep them at a manageable length, they constantly gnaw on hard surfaces. * **Property Damage:...

So I have a new even idea for the for the girls and dolls who have an obsession with all things cute. I was thinking about a new work location. A candy shop that’s also an ice cream shop with a cute core pink and blue aesthetic where the whole store is just candy and desert decorated! Like a waffle cone wall paper with chocolate dripping from the top with pastel sparkles. The event would be to make deserts just like event where we got the chefs badge except we get to keep that location in exchange to delete forever locations that are dead (the movie studio) The event can say sell as much ice cream to keep lkwdscoops shop and stop the mystery of where and why his deliveries having been...

Im looking for some more people to talk to, i enjoy having people to shoot the **** with during the evenings in the form of regular text chats and sometimes nightly voice calls. My choice of program to communicate on is discord so would be preferable if you also use that. About me: - Introverted/homebody that prefers a night at home over a night out. - Enjoyer of pc games, board games and other nerdy hobbies. - Gym visitor to ensure a good health both physically and mentally. - Programmer in progress as in I'm studying comp-sci right now. - The coding is done while blasting metal music in the speakers. - Pretty darn charming and a handsome man according to my mom. What I'm loo...

I was in need of a motion sensor and saw that IKEA just released their new Matter-over-Thread devices so I went and picked up 2 of them for a test. Just paired them with home assistant and can confirm they work well with HA. I don't know how reliable they are since they're brand new but if they are, I'll be picking up more of them. They're US$9.99 each in my local IKEA store. Very affordable.

It's wild that almost every mall in any suburban city in the country is in the process of dying, almost dead, or totally shuttered. I wish we could collectively come up with a good way to save these places. A couple of malls in my area are drastically dropping rent to appeal to the micro businesses in town; others are bringing in petting zoos and holding weekend craft fairs. But what about a radical new approach like mixed housing, retail, and services in a walkable indoor village of sorts? Every mall could have a few restaurants, a little post office, a barber/salon, a convenience store, a grocery store, a dentist, and a health clinic, along with a bunch of apartments and condos. ...

Hello my new Port Townsend neighbors! Looking to buy a couch, maybe two (one for upstairs and one for downstairs). Possibly even a comfy recliner. I am 6'3" and enjoy a good couch-nap. I looked around town the day after I got here and while there were some really nice furniture/antique stores, they didnt really have what I was looking for. Back in the day id just try to find the cleanest looking couch on Craigslist/fb marketplace, but wondering if there are any better options (preferably local) that could potentially deliver to Beckett Point for an extra charge?

Modern neighborhoods were built for convenience, not care. Over time, many of the quiet social systems that once made streets feel like villages slipped away. But restoring them doesn’t require a government program or nonprofit. It begins when a few neighbors decide their block is worth tending. Below are the simple, powerful restoration teams every neighborhood can create - not as formal organizations, but as quiet, shared commitments to land, people, and life - plus a roadmap for starting teams in your neighborhood. 1. Gleaning Team 🌼 A gleaning team rescues edible food that would otherwise rot on the ground or go unused in gardens and backyards. These teams harvest fallen fruit,...

hey i’ve always struggled with the layout of my bedroom. i have a standard double bed, a vanity, chest of drawers, and tall drawers. also a playstation+tv setup (which i currently keep ontop of my chest of drawers) and have an extension lead for that so can be near either plug without issue. added pictures of my other furniture for size references. could possibly add/remove furniture if needed. also im going to upgrade to a bed where you can lift the mattress and store things underneath, singe my current bed doesn’t have the option to put anything under, and i need to maximise space for my clothes lol thanks!
