Keep Your Hands To Yourself.
After years of employing the same design, Ikeas iconic blue bags are gearing up for a makeover in 2017. Better load up on those oversized, glorified tarps with yellow handles now, y’know, for laundry, groceries and everything else you’ve repurposed them as.
Fortunately, some things never change. Once again you can count on another busy week around DFW. You can also count on us to keep tabs on it all for you. Oh thank glob for some security.
