Bab, the Ikea Baby

Caring for an often inscrutable baby and assembling Ikea furniture can be equally daunting which is why we got such a chuckle out of this Ikea parody. Aubrey Clayton designed instructions for "Bab, the Ikea Baby" for expecting friends - we hope she also included a hex wrench!

We saw this on Boing Boing where you can find a link to download a PDF version of the manual.

I am shocked that anyone could find ikea furniture difficult to put together. It is like legos.

Legos are uniform. Ikea furniture often comes with missing parts, mis-aligned holes, bits that don't line up right, and slip covers that are too small to slip over the furniture. Easy on paper, but sometimes more trouble than it's worth.
