Awesome video 👏

[@beckifreed]

I absolutely love your videos AND your new office! I really think you should put just a pop of a green plant somewhere behind you though! 😊

[@jessicaantonakos6374]

I am so excited for your Christmas decorating video in your new house!!

[@KristenMcGowan]

Currently decorating 😊

[@AkemiRaj]

I bought a LV bag at *suluxy* a few years ago. I took it to the LV store in my town last week to have it repaired. A store clerk inspected my bag and immediately told me that the bag was of excellent quality. She pulled a current bag out of inventory and compared the tags and I saw ZERO differences.

[@amandanix9044]

Love love the new Ikea finds! I still have little ones at home, so mixing Ikea pieces in with my high-end furniture in kid friendly spaces works perfectly. Great video!

[@trishasosnowski548]

I LOVE my Hyltarp love seat!!!

[@kathyhoward9182]

Currently on the hunt for a sofa. Thank you so much for this video!

[@sherryidibo2304]

Feather inserts from Ikea are the best quality ,I had them for years now.

[@marysmith9824]

Such good choices!! Another good video. Thanks, Kristen.

[@vaneq9366]

❤❤ Thank you for all the videos you make.. best part of my days!! Much love Kristen.

[@margui6224]

Thank you for advice. IKEA has great products. Love the furniture, glassware, sofa and bedding.

[@janetbof4]

I like that new rug, they placed the medallion in the center so if used with glass coffee table you’ll be able to see them. Very pretty.

[@Zexvidayoutubecreator]

I think so too，very pretty

[@GinaFischer-c3t]

Enjoyed your IKEA goodies as it is so far away, I cannot get there but once a year. I always assumed IKEA would pay for good sponsors with high volumes. So, I appreciate peeking in their window through your well done presentation. Bet Nashville feels like home by now.❤

[@franceswhiston2572]

Thanks for the video. I too love their pillow inserts- also their pillow covers

[@lose999]

The bed is just what I need. Thanks!! Happy Thanksgiving.🦃💕

[@gnomealone-gu6kr]

Those feather inserts have become victims of shrink-flation the last few years. They used to be way more plush.

[@chrissietheoneandonly5968]

For me the best sofa was the Goteborg... Such a pitty the don't make them anymore 😢 Had that one for 14years and sold it for 200euros, it was as new, bought 2 extra covers in 14 years 🤩 really LOVED that one (3.5 seats) ! Wanted a bigger one, unfortunately ikea didn't had that one bigger... 😉

[@ellenm4839]

Love this video. Would love to know where the red poppies tablecloth or fabric in #4 on glassware can be bought.

[@aliciamolloy5948]

Hi Kristen thank you for this video, love the bed need it for my guest room.❤❤

[@Alexander-oq6xh]

I have that bed! It's brilliant value for money and looks just as good in real life.

Fabulous video. I need a new sofa, I’m going to check that one out.

I have the Hyltarp in green it is so beautiful and confortable, I am so glad I got it! I tested so many sofas in different stores and this one was the most confortable by far!

Definitely some of my favorite pieces! I do love the style of the chair but wasn't happy with the way it sat, didn't feel too sturdy.

[@caro395]

Love the TONSTAD

Glass is not new. I have them for couple of years. I agree they are so great.

Is there a recommendation for table lamp especially which are available in germany. Standard sized one, are too small next size is floor lamp. Something in the middle is desired 🧐😄 thanks for any tips

[@adamantiapapandreou6137]

So many great items!

[@teresasolorio6621]

Hi Kristen, I absolutely love all of your videos and the content you create! I know this is a bit off-topic, but I was wondering if you could share the color of your walls and cabinets? Your space looks amazing, and I’m looking for some inspiration for my own home. Thanks so much for all your hard work and for always sharing such great content!

[@gemmasee1]

It's Benjamin moore frosted toffee :)

Ahhh Sundays are always made better by one of you videos dropping 🥰

[@DonnaWalker-b2f]

*amzrepe* The service experience is also worth mentioning.

[@smithjo4152]

Hello Kristen. WE love your Videos..... What's the color you used on your cabinets behind you? Satin or Matte? Is that the same color on the walls?

[@bridgetoliver-zo1gd]

Thanks! What dining table do you feel is a good choice (timestamp 8:14) the black one with the black chair? What is that one called?

[@marilynweist2645]

Thank you for sharing this information with us! 🎉

[@katyhy]

I love those IKEA pillow inserts. I have several of them. And that new rug … oh my! It’s beautiful.

[@cgm4419]

I bought some of the ones she’s suggesting but they’re just flat and thin unless you’re constantly fluffing them. You can get much better ones elsewhere

[@Gogoro7]

Thanks, great finds! Where is your candle from that you have glowing in your background?

[@lindarosenthal6646]

Nice video. Thanks.

[@lollipupke4212]

I have 2 living rooms in 1 room always buy sofa ikea and 2 extra other coulors summer winter. Because with 8 dogs is easy to change and clean.

I enjoy these Ikea videos. Maybe a little too much lol. 😁

[@AC-qo8oq]

Teach us how to style and show us very affordable items with links to all items pleaseeee! I know how to do the big pieces but to style is so hard and I can never find the exact items I see/they’re outrageously priced. Example: photo in your cover pic, how do we get that exact look/variations of it for cheaper?

[@teresaguillen7819]

Enjoy watching you ! Can you please share the paint color of your walls & cabinets that are behind you in this video .thank you so much

Yes! It’s Benjamin Moore frosted toffee :)

Ektorp (or Uppland) are a lot more comfortable than Hyltarp. I like the look of Hyltarp, but not sitting on it.

[@susankapp2268]

I've had the Ektorp for years and still love the look and feel!

[@barbaramurphy4358]

Does Ikea have cruelty-free pillow inserts?

[@annecarter5181]

Yes. I buy the ones with polyester fill. If you want “super plush” you could always “double-stuff” into the cushion cover.

[@saintxbarbie]

Unfortunately the glassware was released in 2022 and discontinued a while ago In Australia.

A small tips for pillows. Buy the cheapest white or light gray pillow cover, a standard pillow cover often let sweat and so through so the pillow start to look a bit yellow even you wash it. But with a extra insert more (not all) sweat is stopped and those can be washed often in higher temperature and with soaps that also is made for white cloth. Some cheaper pillow covers are also a bit thin so you can see through them, then the extra white or gray inserts san work as a base color.

[@julioenergy]

That TONSTAD sideboard is begging to be placed in a moody home office or media room.

Yes👏🏼👏🏼

Love that you had a sponsor, but didn’t turn your video into a commercial. I like Redken products too.

[@SummerMasterson]

I agree, most ads are so much more annoying, but I really enjoy Kristen’s videos because she hasnt gone this way yet. Sad to see she is adding these annoying ads to her videos. I will probably quit watching her.

[@genevieverodriguez]

​@SummerMasterson this is her job though and sponsorships pay the bills. I always just skip them if I need to but if we want the makeovers and the product reviews she needs the sponsorships
