IKEA

IKEA, which started as a tiny mail-order company in rural Sweden, has become a global home-furnishing brand that brings people affordability, design, and comfort worldwide. We may have come a long way since our humble beginnings, but our vision remains the same: to create a better everyday life for many people.
Given its large selection of storage items, some local division members consider IKEA a hobby store. Check out the RASKOG utility cart used for portable storage. It is great to have tools near you when working on the layout. And they have cinnamon rolls!
