IKEA 365+IHÄRDIG – Spice Grinder

2 Replies

I use to eat and cook dishes with regular powdered pepper, until one day,  I was introduced to the pepper grinder. Of course I had them when you go to fancy restaurants where the server will come up and ask if you’d like some pepper, and they’d twist their huge pepper grinder for fresh spicier pepper. But I never thought of getting it myself.

Now I am hooked, and is the only kind of pepper I use. I like the IKEA 365+IHÄRDIG of it small compact size and being able to see how much is left inside. Easy to clean too. I find it a bit pricey for $7.99 = tax, but it’s well worth it!

MELODI IKEA Pendant Lights

I recently bought a simple IKEA Melodi Pendant light to hang in my nook above my dining table. It was for $9.99 + tax, so it was really affordable, but doesn’t look like crap. I like how it glows through the white shade, and gives the nook a soft ambient look. I was originally going to get those Asian-looking round paper-made ones, but was told it was too cheap-looking.
I’m happy with how much it costs and looks. The setup is easy, mind you we didn’t do the full complete installation…we kind of cheated a bit, and made a fake ceiling board, along with cable channels…still it looks decent, and the way the nook is built, you rarely look up – you’re more likely to be focused on the food on the table :)
