IKEA Mammut Three Drawer Chest
Feb 25th
Not much to review on this thing — the IKEA Mammut Three Drawer Chest has three drawers and works — but I did want to show a picture of how it looks in a room. The curtains in the background are from IKEA as well — but we had bought them years before for a different room. They just happened to match everything else.
