I grew up in the SF Bay Area, and we always had plain white dishes. Now I'm older and understand our trips to Cost Plus in SF were quite practical! Back then, it was a multi-floor warehouse full of wonders and magic, that smelled like wicker and tea! Almost everything was imported from China and Japan, and to me it was such a treat to see the toys and goodies. But my mother was there to buy replacement dishes, bowls and cocktail napkins, among other things! She loved poking thru the aisles and looking too, but I think we always came home with dishes to replace the ones we had broken over the past several months, along with something interesting she found. Her favorites, and we always had them, were white "lotus bowls," as she called them. They were white china bowls that looked like lotuses, and we used them for ice cream, pudding, custard, fruit cocktail--you name it. She was was an artist, very concerned about the appearance of things, and loved fine things. We had fine china we used for meals in the dining room, but for everyday casual use, it was the plain white china from CostPlus. Dishes break, but I don't remember it ever being a big deal, probably because my mom just figured it meant getting to shop at CostPlus in The City! I think the white dishes at IKEA are the modern-day equivalent!

[@nikkibhashkar6327]

The lazy susan is also excellent when icing a cake. I've had the same IKEA one for at least 5 years now

[@shaunatomlin7421]

I used to shop IKEA when I lived in Bordeaux France… so cool how Sleek and efficient the kitchens are and how they use every bit of space.

A tip for the curtains if the colors don’t match your decor they dye really easily. I have dyed IKEA curtains in my apartment bathtub and they turned out beautifully. I am about to move to a new apartment in a couple months and plan to dye some new ones for my new decor. Thank you Kiva for all the great tips.

[@Thought_it_up]

Please do an entire tableware video! I want all white dishes but the options for price and materials are overwhelming!

[@KivaBrent]

Love this idea!! Adding it to my list!

[@christopherzorobautista5730]

I have a hack for you, for frothing milk I use an old soap dispenser; the one that froths the soap as it dispenses. I cleaned it up with water, making sure no left over soap is in the container and the dispenser mechanism, pour milk into it, pump and voila!

[@brianneharrison9419]

I use those seasoning containers for our over the counter medicine in my bathroom

[@KivaBrent]

That’s so smart!!!

[@AB2B]

The shoe boxes are great for small children's toys, too. I got the pillows several years ago, both throw and lumbar, and change out the covers for the seasons. Very economical, and I do plan to get more as we've started renewing and renovating. I love their curtains! We chose the rail system for ease of use and better sun blocking coverage. Love that the rails give us a choice to use just sheers sometimes, just blocking curtains other times, or both if we want. A bit more expensive, but not terribly so. I'm such an IKEA nerd! lol

[@Thesleepypoet]

I have that milk frother in grey. Picked it up in 2011 on a visit abroad (my country didn’t have Ikea then). It is still going strong. Absolutely love it.

[@jayflowsss]

I’ve had the frother for about a year now and I love it for mixing my protein shakes or my protein powder into my coffee. Like what you said in another video, making your space luxurious is not just about the items/furniture it’s about elevating your home experience. Definitely feel like your videos give me the motivation to do that, love your content!!

[@meofmanynames]

That milk frother is so great. It's better than the ones I've picked up at target or elsewhere.

[@jessicabrown8677]

The Oftast bowls are a more affordable version of Corelle dishes. Not only are they a great price point for elegant, everyday dishes, but they are chip and scratch resistant.

I need those shoe storage thingies

[@KivaBrent]

They are too good!

[@goddessofthestars]

They're amazing and hold up really well! Had them for about 4 years 😍

[@suefauziyah]

We had a bunch and I hated them -- tried to stack two rows of 4 tall next to each other, constantly fell over so I duct taped them together, they still slanted over so I attached stiff cardboard to the sides, this kept them upright but oh what an eye-sore. They're probably fine if you only stack them 2 boxes high, or wedge between something stiff, but take it from me they do have limitations!

[@patriciaseyfferle1427]

@@KivaBrent Maybe I should replace the dark gray hanging accordion shoe things I "inherited", which I don't fill, with these. Hmm, they would be lighter in my closet and take up less space...Thanks for the suggestion!

One of my favorite things to do is wander around ikea with no particular agenda, then take a break and get a cup of decent coffee there at a low price. An artist friend of mine says she goes there when she needs inspiration.

[@natalieschiller4785]

The spice bottles are my LIFE!! They look beautiful in my drawer. I have 28 that fit in my drawers!! They are a must for kitchens!!

[@TamarLitvot]

In the house we’re moving into, I’m going to have some open shelves (not the now over-used floating ones, but boxed in like regular cabinets without doors) for my flours and baking supplies. I was planning on putting my spices in drawers because they look messy, but now I’m thinking I’ll put the spices I use most in those ikea jars and put the jars on those open shelves!

[@georgemohr7532]

I loved this video basically because you seem genuinely excited about these products. You have them and you actually use them.The large white bowl-Ramen noodles and other noodle dishes-perfect. The item that I was waiting for is the Ikea garlic press. I have had mine forever. Given that, maybe that don't stock it any longer. If you can get your hands on one by all means get it. It is the best one ever. Ikea milk frother-not so much. They do not last that long. I'm keeping my long life $20 frother.

[@KivaBrent]

Maybe I don’t froth enough milk 😂. The old ikea garlic presses were amazing, but the new version falls apart! I’m sad that they changed the design because you are so right!

[@emma4922]

The Ikea black-out curtains are fantastic. Very popular in the land where the sun goes down at around 11PM in summer!

[@lalasha19]

I have those tempered glass plates and bowls from ikea. I love them. Just a sturdy as modern Corning wear but, a fraction of the price.

[@TamarLitvot]

I can vouch for both the ikea plastic container and bags. We use the plastic containers for cereal and it is air tight and pours really easily. My only gripe is it falls over easily it it’s standing alone. But if it’s closed, nothing spills, and on a shelf up against other containers, it not a problem. The bags are slightly less easy to seal than ziplock but not a big deal. And they last really well (I wash mine and reuse them) and are great price.

[@barbararush2508]

Just moved into a new place and i love these organization ideas, especially the shoe boxes! Right now our shoes are just in a huge pile in the closet. Funny enough I just donated a bunch of the seasoning jars... I have so many seasonings that their wide bases took up way too much space on my spice rack! I hope they have some slimmer ones for me to snag soon because I love buying bulk seasonings and putting them in those nice, labeled jars!
