[1.01] Introduction

Welcome to my 37th guide, 20th guide for anything related to the Sims 
franchise at all, 16th for the Sims 2 on PC. Anyway, this is the guide which
details what is actually added to the Sims 2 with the Ikea Stuff pack, which
is more than the other stuff packs. Anyway, besides me wasting my money like
no tomorrow, let us begin.

If you are here to get my opinion on this, seriously, it is like all the other
stuff packs, a big waste of money. Don't waste money on this, save up for 
TS3 or the expansion pack.

 satiated. Why not look sophisticated at the same time with the RAKET Table 
 Easel? The perfect decoration for home or office, its cuteness comes from 
 being a small version of a normal object and its sophistication from the

[4.07] BILD, Poster Yin and Yang

"Your friends chuckle and your family sighs when you try to explain how
 opposites attract. Perhaps they'll finally understand when you show them
 this motif with its striking pair of horses. One dark, one light, one
 serious, one goofy, one intense, one aloof. If such a pair of different
 horses can coexistm doesn't that mean that anything's possible?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4.08] PJATTERYD Picture

"A combination of thematic elements from the entire history of art, this
 painting never fails to evoke an emotional response from the viewer. It
 can be as shallow as a quiet happiness coming from its bright colour and
 bad strokes. It can be as deep as the sense of order ingrained in its 
 concentric circles and stamp-like designs. Either way, it is an inexorable
 piece of art that must be owned to be believed."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4.09] SLATTHULT Decorative Sticker, Poppy

"Growing flowers indoors is a dangerous business. Not only is it difficult to
 ensure that your indoor garden gets the right amount of sunlight and water,

[4.11] RIBBA Frame

"Life is framed so elegantly; why not give your pictures the some courtesy?
 These RIBBA frames with matting - and three distinct woods, show off your
 photos in all their triumphant glory. Too bad you've been too lazy to

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4.12] LACK Wall Shelf

"The simplicity of the LACK Wall Shelf masks its ultraclean design and makes
 it look almost too easy. With invisible mounting and a cadre of bold
 colours, the shelf blends in seemlessly into the wall while providing

[4.13] LACK Wall Shelf #2

"Love the simplicity of the LACK Wall Shelf but want something extra? IKEA 
 has something that's right up your alley. This zigzag shelf in the LACK line
 takes all of the wonderfully clean design behind the regular wall shelf and
 bends it a few times. The result is a striking piece of wall art and storage

[4.15] KRABB Mirror

[4.16] MONGSTAD Mirror

[4.18] VANNA Mirror

"The conventional wisdom may be that mirrors should be strapless, but the
 VANNA isn't about to bow to conventional wisdom. With numerous elastic 
 straps, the VANNA is more than a mirror. Watch it hold pictures and 
 postcards, in addition to a reflection. Watch it carefully, or it might
 just walk away with your heart."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4.19] HEMNES Mirror

"Most Sims think that a mirror is a mirror is a mirror, but then again, most
 Sims aren't as smart as you. You look into the heart of the HEMNES Mirror 
 and see yourself, except that for some reason you seem to be flipped 
 horizontally. And when you stare into the HEMNES it stares back with your
 own eyes and you both just look fabulous."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4.20] IKEA PS Rug

"Don't look too closely into the eye of the IKEA PS Rug. It hypnotises Sims 
 on a regular basis and it is not an uncommon sight to one's living room
 only to see a group of Sims all standing on the rug, looking rather confused
 but very pleased with the soft feeling under their feet."

[4.21] RINGUM Rug

"Your floor is bored. While you drape accessories all over your cell phone, 
 your handbag, your walls, your floors sit lonely and bare. Sure, you could
 throw down a single rug to pull the room together, but the RINGUM series
 makes it easy to accessorise the floor with a lot of smaller rugs. Choose
 from any of the seven vibrant colours and make your floor happy."

[4.22] SVEJE Rug

"Wilkommen! Beinvenue! SVEJE! We'll admit SVEJE doesn't really mean welcome
 in any language, but the SVEJE Rug certainly will welcome any visitors with
 a hand-woven, bright, colourful lined pattern. So put one down, invite some 
 friends over and give them a friendly SVEJE when they arrive."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[4.23] ULDUM Rug

"Two wrongs may not make a right, but four twos do make a sixteen - if you
 combine in the right way. The ULDUM Rug certainly combines them in the best
 way possible and while the beauty of the mathematics within the rug may 
 be lost on most - and are somewhat boring anyway - it's impossible to ignore
 the gripping effect it has on any room."

[4.24] IKEA STOCKHOLM Vase

"The IKEA STOCKHOLM Vase invites anyone and everyone to come and explore its

 be fooled when it tries to play coy. The vase has you right where it wants
 you."

"All too often, lampshades are forced to serve under the oppressive regime of
 a bright white light. They are used to simply bounce light off of or as a

[8.01] Notes

This is one of the larger Stuff packs, it adds more than any other, which
is reflected in the longer table of contents.

HOWEVER, there are some poor points about this. Too much decorative crap 
when the game itself is saturated with it, and doesn't really need anymore for
it. I was expecting more furniture, since this IKEA, the master of the Allen
Key and stores so big you get lost in them.

Also, the price of the Stuff Pack is something to be desired. For something
that is basically a walking advertisement for IKEA, it would be a cheaper 
price for the customer, which is you, in the end, and that simply isn't the
case. Overall, this should be the last Stuff Pack to finish off this
series, and by the Sims 3, you'll be seeing Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs,
Downloadable Content for a fee, etc. One of the role reasons, I WON'T be 
writing for the Sims 3.
