If you feel like you’ve been on snooze
mode and need a kick-start, let’s begin
with the room where you recharge your
batteries. We know that the last thing
you want to feel when you’re trying to

a range to suit everyone who’s been
keeping awake. And it has to be at prices

your personal style. It’s not an easy task
but someone has to do it. And to make

time, our SULTAN mattresses and PAX
wardrobes come with a 25-year and 10year guarantee respectively.

The window gardener
Where there’s a window, there’s a way to garden. Work with window shelves,
plants, pots and hanging rails to create a scaled-down gardening spot. Smaller
cups, glasses and even muffin baking cups can hold smaller sprouts that will be
transplanted to bigger pots and plots. Shelf inserts can be used and stacked to
create even more space for little plants.
Whether you have a sprawling lawn, a small balcony or simply a window
ledge, you can always have a little garden and outdoor spirit with the
right furnishings.

A botanical balcony
A balcony can become a blooming, luscious green oasis with determination,
patience and time (and of course, sun, soil and water). Optimise whatever space
you have by planting at different heights – on the ground, on stools, shelves,
chairs and even hanging from clothes racks. Just be sure to pay attention to the
amounts of shade or sunlight the plants need.

Modular seating is meant to go big – and small! Turn a balcony into a cosy lounge

My PAX story
We believe getting dressed should be about inspiration,
not irritation. With PAX/KOMPLEMENT, you can tailor
any number of combinations along with your lifestyle
changes, while taking care of all your clothes, shoes
and accessories.
Textile boxes
are a fast, easy
way to put stuff
away. They hold
a lot and still
look neat inside
your wardrobe.
My PAX story
A place for everything
Double your hanging space
with a two-level system.
10
Keep drawers at chest
level. Anything higher and
you may have difficulty
looking into it. Add a shelf
above the open drawer
for added storage space.
Year
GUARANTEE
Made to last
PAX wardrobes come with a 10-year
guarantee. And we’re confident they will
last even longer because of the extensive
testing we put them through.
W
hatever your bedroom storage
needs, the PAX wardrobe and
customisable KOMPLEMENT interior
fittings are the solution.
Starting out on your own
As a young adult, you’ll see the
wonders of the world and start
wondering how you could possibly
do everything you need to do in
24 hours. Time is a luxury few can
afford. So, you need your daily
routines to be done as quickly as
possible. That includes choosing your
outfit of the day.
Instead of pulling stuff out pieceby-piece, let your wardrobe do
the matching for you. Use pull-out
clothes rails and shoe organisers to
get a quick look at your options. You
can also match tops and bottoms
easily this way.
Sometimes you need a little
creative thinking to maintain
order in an already full
wardrobe. Pre-drilled holes
in PAX wardrobe frames
allow placement of shelves,
baskets, clothes rails and
more, to maximise the use of
space and allow for cleverer
ways to organise your life.
Wire baskets are perfect for
t-shirts and make it easy to
find what you’re looking for.
If you have recently added ‘work
attire’ to your category of clothes
and need space to store them,
simply get add-on clothes rails.
Otherwise, you can always expand
your current PAX wardrobe.
Whatever your needs, start by planning your own PAX
wardrobe at www.IKEA.co.th/paxplanner

The perfect romance
The day two hearts become one is the most celebrated of all. It is also the day
you discover your partner’s more eccentric approaches to domestic logistics.
Fret not! Be it his need for dedicated sock and necktie drawers or her
insistence on keeping the multitude of handbags perfectly aligned, the PAX
wardrobe is meant to accommodate all that. After all, you played a part in
designing it.
To avoid territorial conflict, try separating his side from her side with an
interior panel. You can then choose KOMPLEMENT interior fittings that suit
your own needs.
A new life
Things get a little more complicated when children come into the picture.
Dedicating two to three drawers usually does the trick for babies and
toddlers, it might soon be time to vacate a section of the wardrobe as your
child grows older.
Start by moving the miscellaneous items storage from the bottom to the
top of your wardrobe. This will keep them away from your child’s inquisitive
hands and clear space for easy-to-reach drawers or clothes rails. Install
drawer organisers to keep mess to a minimum when your child rummages
through the drawer for a pair of socks.

ike many unmarried Thai people in their
twenties, I am living with my parents in their
homely house that we just moved into recently.
This also means that some of the furniture in
my old room needs to be moved with me. With my bed
goes behind me since I’ve bought a lovely queen-sized
one from IKEA. I now have a different problem. I am
like the other girls that spend half of my time shopping
and the other half actually travelling. Trying hard not to
shop, and failing most of the time.
4. My favorite part is saved
for last: customizing the
interior. Start with a preset,
and delete and add various
options out of or into your
wardrobe. I wanted three
different sections for mine
specifically - one for tops,
one for bottoms, and the
last for dresses. I have
drawers for knickers and
essentials, some space
right on top for my bags.
5. Add them all to your shopping list,
select which IKEA store you want to
get the wardrobe from and the site tells
you whether your bits and bobs are in
stock. What a wicked idea. Print the
page and you’re set to shop for a new
wardrobe. Remember to drop by the
restaurant for IKEA’s delicious nuggets.
As for me, my abyss of
adventures and memories
now have a prettier home.
And I can’t wait to show it off!

Here are some key items to create a hotel-styled bedroom
The relationship that you have with your bedroom is special.
It’s where you go for time alone, or to be close to someone
else. Your bedroom isn’t just for sleeping, it’s something to be
passionate about. Starting with the little things…

that your room looked just like the
hotel room you’re staying in? We
did. And we thought, why not?
No matter where, hotel rooms always have
something in common: an excessive number
of pillows, colour-coordinated bedding &
textiles, obligatory nightstands, multiple
light sources, dressing table, wardrobe, as
well as a headboard. They add a sense of
grandeur and comfort, and with freelyarranged armchairs, a sense of freedom.
In a hotel, the bed is the centerpiece,

morning routine. Clever use of space and
hidden storage solutions, however, can
solve the issue.
Most importantly, the bed should always
take centre stage. And buy the best bed
you can. This will be the best investment
you have ever made for your peace of mind.
Unlike a hotel room that must please many
people, your bedroom is the one place that
is truly yours, so go ahead and create one
that suits your personality. Here are some

Children’s IKEA
Children’s IKEA
As a child, we always wanted to
be grown-ups. Maybe that’s why
children keep outgrowing their
clothes. What you need, then, is a
modular and customisable storage
that grows with your little one.
100% polyester. W150XD80, H80cm.
Adults keep off! Kids like
to have their own space
where they can feel safe
and do their own things
without someone nagging.
Be it a blanket fort or the
space under their bed
tent, it’s a fun way for
them to be independent.

…and for many
years to come.
S
oon after your darling took his
first cuddly steps and said his first
words, he’ll start picking up more
words and learn many new things
about the world around him. That’s where
he’ll get started on his first question. And
then the second, third, and so forth – all
starting with the hardest word of all: ‘why’.
Why? Because the age of 3 to 7 is the
age of wonders. At this time, curiosity
reigns and play is serious stuff. Children
of this age learn by exploring, asking and
imitating. The world is a playground for
them, so let them play, draw, sing, run
around, read, and do whatever it is that
catches their interest.

Prepared for tough love
Who thinks about safety when having lots of fun? Not
kids, they’ve got more important things to do – so it’s our
responsibility to see the hidden dangers.
As with all our children’s products, IKEA PS LÖMSK is made
with rounded corners, no protruding parts, and plastic that
bends rather than cracks.
An extra wide and weighted foot makes it tip-proof (if you’re
not allowed to spin it at full speed, then what’s the point?)

Sure, children will play with their food
and eat their toys, all while climbing up
and down your furniture. But it does help
them develop their fine motor skills. So
while your iPad can be a great babysitter,
try not to rely on it too much. Instead,
make space for activities. Use practical
furniture that can be moved around and
cleaned up easily.
As he grows older, you’ll be surprised at
how fast he outgrows his clothes. More
complex games, school and outdoor
activities also mean that efficient storage
solutions are a must, especially if he still
can’t let go of his 6-year old teddy bear.
Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who’s the cutest of them
all? Let your child discover herself in this playful,
impact-resistant and child-proof mirror. Maybe she’ll
be convinced that it’s finally time to take a bath too!
A great way to keep things
off the floor, and for the
occasional pair of pants
they can wear again.
Combine with hanging
baskets for extra storage.

So you just got home after a long day’s
work, and your little girl comes running
eager to tell you about her day. She had
learnt about different types of flowers in
school. So she drew some for you, except
that it’s on the wall. With love and crayons.
Instead of getting angry and worrying about
repainting the wall, you can try using baby
oil or toothpaste. Here are some other
cleaning tips using common items found
around the home.
Refresh your chopping
board
Squeeze a few drops of lemon
juice on the board, rub and
let it sit for about 20 minutes
before rinsing.
Removing water stains on
wooden furniture
Use hairdryer on low heat to
dry the affected area. Then
rub olive oil, used tea bags or
even mayonnaise over the area.
The oil and tannins will act as a
natural polish.

Removing juice/red wine
stains
Spilled red wine on your candlelight dinner? Save your date by
pouring saltwater over it! Table
salt also helps lift stubborn
red wine and those yellow
perspiration stains. Dissolve
4 tablespoons of salt in 1 litre
of hot water and sponge the
stain with the solution before
washing the garment.
Odour neutraliser
Besides stain-removal
properties, Baking Soda is
also good for neutralising
nasty odours e.g. baby spit-up
on clothes.
Removing grease stains
Talcum powder, baby powder or even (same-colour)
chalk is good for absorbing grease from fabrics.

SWEDISHNESS
IKEA Mobile
On the go
Easter may be the most important religious day in Sweden,
but that’s not what most children remember it for. Easter is
the time of year when children parade the streets dressed
(very convincingly) as witches. Brooms in hand, they’d go
knocking on doors, singing songs, telling stories or handing
out drawings in return for sweet treats. It is Sweden’s veryown Halloween season for the kids, complete with costumes,
candies and a little adventure.
See what’s new in the store, find a product and
create a shopping list.
The tradition is a remnant from the past when people
thought that Easter is the time when witches fly away on
brooms for sinful living in Blåkulla. The folklore didn’t only
give children a reason to play dress-up, but also gave adults
a chance to party around huge bonfires initially lit to scare
away these witches. Some shops are also selling witchthemed trinkets and delicacies during this season.

As the snow melts and flowers bloom, Easter is also the time
when homes are decorated in colourful feathered birchtwigs to welcome spring. Spring cleaning applies here too,
as Easter is the first extended holiday in Sweden and many
families travel to holiday cottages. Locked up all winter, it
is time to sweep the dust, open the windows, and get the
kitchen to work before relatives arrive for an Easter lunch.
Held in the crisp spring air, a traditional Easter lunch consists
of different varieties of pickled herring, cured salmon and a
dish dubbed “Jansson’s Temptation”. Spiced schnapps is also
a feature of many Easter tables, making Spring in Sweden
nature’s way of saying “Let’s party!”
