Always appreciate your videos. How did you make out with Iam Hurricane? Can you tell me what to get. I need 2 chairs to sit under my canopy of my rv. I usually sit outside and read.. Also any recommendation about a rocking chair too. Ps. They need to fold. I really don't want to buy a chair that I will regret. And you guys have been rving for a while so I am sure you've figure it out. Thanks

As a Swedish woman I love seeing people appreciate IKEA and all their smart solutions. 👍 Been living in the south of France for 7 years and seeing an IKEA next to the road always makes me feel a little bit home. 😁 ❤🇸🇪

I only wish they were wheelchair friendly.

I know you live full-time in an RV but I am AMAZED at your ability to get out of Ikea with 1 bag! I cannot leave without a cartful! My whole RV has been Ikeaized. My whole small pantry has those containers. My best Ikea find are the Jonaxel slide drawers and frame. We mounted them in our closet as we do not have a dresser in our bedroom.

[@ragamuffinaba]

Me too

[@shestudios]

You are the undisputed QUEEN of RV organization. Love what you do and how you do it. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thank you!

[@fulltimelife1248]

Bins are great but clear bins are the best.

[@teressarenslow5992]

With clear ones you can slip a picture of your choice down inside the sides to indicate what's inside or to create a decorative "table" next to the bed, as a mini coffee table.

[@lunaandstella825]

One pro-tip when you live from a van or trailer is using ikea bags for hauling around laundry. Much more convenient than a hamper and stores away so small when folded. Ad in winter they sell the ‘vinterfint’ version which is a scandinavian christmas decor version which I totally love.

[@merrygoround4965]

I hope Ikea should make a universal plugs/extension cord too. It will help a lot for people who travel international

[@sherrycohen1824]

That Mala thing in the kids' section is also good for adults who journal and/or plan or draw.

[@leiflillandt1488]

[@laurapadgett3552]

One of my most favorite purchases at IKEA is the milk frother for 2.99 It turns ordinary coffee into extraordinary! Just heat your milk or cream of choice for about 15-30 sec in the microwave and froth it. Pour over your coffee. Yum

[@GratefulGlamper]

I’ll have to snag one of those!

[@stephaniebarlettrainwater7351]

We have used these for years - very fun!

[@ceejay3054]

IKEA had, and may still have, a black flexible "dishpan" with cutout handles... I have two and they have literally had a dozen uses since we started prepping for living on our sailboat

[@phyllisboyse2024]

I love some of the storage items you are discovering for RVs. We have lived in RVs since the middle 1990s and love it. One thing we have found to help with storage like seasonal clothing, bedding, etc is we use vacuum bags, where you store things and use your vacuum to retract out the extra air and therefore have a lot of room to store. I have a crochet hobby and end up accumulating a lot of yarn and these vacuum bags work great for that too. Thanks for the IKEA tour to help with RV storage. Looks like better quality than the Dollar Tree storage bins, etc.

I have a shoe hanger with 24 spots hanging on the outside of the bathroom door. It keeps the shoes from cluttering the entryway. So useful! I also use plastic bins in my pantry to keep things organized even while travelling.

[@franklinstephen3268]

Hello how are you doing?

[@arbonneladyTN]

I found a little wood 5”x3” flat with angle grooves on each side… it’s a stand for phones! Two different size slots/grooves and I LOVE IT!! I used it all over the house and RV.. the next time I was at IKEA I bought two more! Now the RV , home upstairs each have one!!! (Don’t remember the name )

[@GratefulGlamper]

Great idea- thanks for sharing

[@carihuston8929]

I have them too. One side is slender, the other groove is thicker and I use both. One works great for my iPhone in its case, and I use the skinny one for my iPad.

I purchased the HULTARP rail, hooks, container and magnetic knife rack. Installed the rails in the kitchen and used the hoos to hang spice racks by the stove. Now I don't have to pack them up on travel days

[@GratefulGlamper]

Nice!

[@katythriftyunder35homeowne57]

Large Ikea bags (or the big Marshalls totes) are awesome for small space living where you need to take your laundry somewhere. Much safer vs a laundry basket

[@jaxxon98]

Well, that was fun! Thanks for taking me along. I don't live near an IKEA but I do shop in the online store and already have (and love) some of the items you showed. Still, there are some things that are only available in the store and it is more fun to have the actual in-store IKEA experience.

[@GratefulGlamper]

The in-store experience is a must!

[@Vandringstjejen]

Hi from sweden :) loved your tour and yes, Fejka means Fake. And sommarvind means summer breeze. Keep up! :)

[@GratefulGlamper]

Ah, good to know. Thanks for watching

Lmao. I was embarrased when I bought the kiddie plates, cups & utensils😂 Im not embarrased anymore thanks to you

[@MA-jr8hj]

Dollar tree has priced itself out of a number of products I used to purchase there. 1.25 doesn't seem like a lot, but as I'm sure all of you have figured out, for every four items that's another dollar and it adds up quickly! The things I buy there now are the items that aren't necessarily cheaper per ounce but that I only want a very small amount of.

[@solidstate9451]

The Mala-Case is loved by my autistic son. When we went to restaurants we always took something to draw with us so the children were occupied and did not annoy other people there. Now this little guy is 11, takes it everywhere with him and draws better than most adults. He puts it on his lap and doesn't need a desk but can draw wherever he sits. He can even draw when he sits on the floor.

[@cboyle707]

My gosh, thanks for traipsing around IKEA for us. I get tired just thinking about it. The food, yeah, I can do that, no assembly required.

Nice tour. I have wanted to go there for a very long time. Fun and practical, like the Swedes themselves. By the way, "j" is pronounced as "y" in Swedish. That tray you picked up that said "hej" on it is pronounced "hey." So indeed, "fejka" is "fayka" (fake.) 😁🇸🇪

[@macairhead5137]

The ‘shoe’ Parkla is great for handbag/purse storage, too

[@kathleenburns7065]

Saving this for the future, in hopes of one day revamping something to be my dream home away from home. But also some of the storage options you showed would be great as I start a room makeover to reduce my physical footprint in the room to have more space for crafting.

I have one of those mala drawing cases and I use it for urban sketching! Very very convenient! I am also a full-time RV-er.

[@duggydugg3937]

the big parkla with the handles .. great for coats . blankets etc.. hanging from hook ... more space saving than hard cabinets ! also the underbed parklas no hard edges ..

[@DamageLLC]

I live for those plastic bins. I RV full-time now for the last 3 months and tried everything, then when I got something similar to these from the dollar store, I literally slapped myself saying “how did you not think of these before”? 🤦‍♂️ Oh and by the way…I give credit when credit is due…I got that idea from a previous video you released, so thank you! 😬 Happy travels and would love to run into you guys on the road one day! Be safe!

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks! Maybe we will see you out there!

[@itchingtogo7362]

Had to laugh when you showed the desk. In my van, I needed a small desk for a counter as well as open underneath to keep litter box for my cat. Desk is exact width I needed! Perfect!!!

That little desk is on my list to put my apartment-provided trash bin under while adding more kitchen counter area.

I have a really tiny bathroom that I only have room for the contour rug that goes in front of the toilet, and it's actually perfect! I vacuum it before I get into the shower because who wants to step out of a shower onto a sandy rug? It's a memory foam rug that I got on Amazon...

Thank You so much for this video, it's so helpful to hear how you stay organized in your RV home

[@robinferguson8911]

I take a Dimpa bag with me in my carry-on when flying somewhere. If I acquire stuff on the trip and can't fit it all into the carry-on on the way back I can use the Dimpa bag as a checked bag. They're seriously strong.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Good to know!

[@tbaer4894]

I was just in ikea yesterday and tried the bucket hat on. I was tempted to purchase it. It was 4.99 where I was. And the cinnamon bun was delicious!

[@donnadenker4459]

You both are just too funny. Love the video. I've only been to IKEA once in Phoenix. I was so overwhelmed. It was our first year RVing. Now we are going onto year 4 of our RV life and can't wait to go back to IKEA.

[@nans969]

The huge clear zippered bag with handles, I use to store pillows and bedding when not using our trailer. 4 standard pillows fit comfortably in them. We are very part time RVers. For now. I do have quite a few ikea products for our rv. Also, the under bed storage you use, I use in the trunk of our car. And store yarn in my house. I do like the bins from ikea more than dollar tree ones. They don't break like the DT ones do.

[@GratefulGlamper]

Thanks for sharing- great idea

[@victoriaweyforth9669]

I love the hat!!!

[@kkrolf2782]

The “rinse bin” you found looks VERY interesting! Ikea’s side-cut-down bins just were NOT what I wanted for my craft supplies, but the rinse bin might be an alternative.

[@placestosea]

a couple more items to add to the list, the slatted bed base ( for Diyer's) and the small combined travel clock/alarm/temp 'cube' very inexpensive and compact.

I love your channel and have taken so many of your tips and tricks into our small camper makeover. We are definitely not making the jump to full time RV life, but I still enjoy watching the simplicity and organization you share, and use many of those ideas in my small home as well! I do wonder, with inflation, rising crime rates, and food prices/scarcity becoming a bigger problem do you ever worry about safety on the road? Is there some way your family carries food storage or emergency items with you on the road?

[@GratefulGlamper]

Hey there, we do carry personal protection on the road as well as we almost always have at least 2-3 weeks of dry good food on hand.

[@tbrough90]

Oh that is really good peace of mind. Sending your whole family love and prayers for safe and happy travels!

[@colleenkielczynski1696]

I live 20 minutes from IKEA . I went there a few days ago. I wish I would have watched your video first. I got some great buys though and I didn't have to feel justified. The low price deals are amazing and since I'm an expert when it comes to the DT, DT does work but IKEA wins! I need to coin that statement! Thanks for sharing!

off rv topic .. i got an electric plate warmer tray from thrift store.. gas & electric co had to shutoff the natural gas on our street to replace the main.. plate warmer tray turned out to have a high setting enough to toast the hamburger roll .. with no gas i put a pot on the 'warmer' with chili & veggies... worked perfectly

[@missybaltimore1374]

So i keep those zip bags that sheets or curtains or blankets come packaged in. Cheaper than the zippered bags from ikea! I have the stainless steel round organizer in my house, to hold cutlery! They are perfect for that…. My camper van has teensy storage areas, so i need shallow bins. Hard to find those.

IKEA names make a lot more sense when you realize that they aren’t Swedish words (some of them are, but most are made-up). But use Swedish pronunciation. So, pronounce the ‘j’ as ‘y’, not as ‘dch’. “Fejke” is pronounced ‘fake’. And the ‘v’ is pronounced ‘w’, so ‘sommarvinde’ is just ‘summer wind’.
