MJ's last day in Ann Arbor


On her last day in Ann Arbor MJ visits the Ikea in a nearby town. They have a great nursery display with the coolest wall and floor graphics. She loves the light fixture, too.




Notice that she has on the new clothes she got at Kiwanis that Saturday.



Then it's off to the train station in Ann Arbor to catch the train to????????????????????
Her next destination is a secret...stay tuned.

On the way she spies some cute guys in a shop window. YUM!

Wouldn't Construction Jack be fun to take with her
on her next adventure?


She's all packed up and ready to go. I see she has
a bag with presents for all her hostesses.
Bye MJ.  Safe travels.




The cute room and lamp are really Ikea purchases of mine. The "room" is a Brada Laptop support.

The lamp is called Strala and is a decoration with an LED bulb inside.

STRÅLA Battery-operated, half globe IKEA The LED light source consumes up to 85% less energy and lasts 20 times longer than incandescent bulbs.

  3. Very, very clever! I thought it was a true Ikea scene, and was thinking that at least one Ikea believed in 1:12 scale... I love your use of the laptop stand, and the decoration. (Did they have Construction Jack in 1:1 scale?)

  6. She looks like she had a blast there! I love her outfit! Tell her that I went back to Cave Point to see the fall colors. I can't wait to see where she lands next.

  8. Every journey must come to an end. It was fun seeing MJs adventures with you. Glad to see the lights back at IKEA, but not thrilled with the decorative decals. Cool use of the laptop tray!

    1. Hi MD,
      Thanks for the nice comments. Yes, the lights would be better without the decals. They are fun for dinner lights...our family has been using them for that.
