Guys, thank you all for letting me know about the spam comments of someone someone replying to you. PLEASE don’t reply/click on any links that aren’t me. I’m working with KZbin to stop this from happening ❤

[@madelineclarke7608]

I reported one Luke 💕

[@carolscott9973]

My father used to say that “It’s cheaper to go first class.” I realized what he meant when I grew up and got my own home; when you buy cheap products, you are always fixing or replacing them; so although it may cost you more money to begin with (for example the more expensive IKEA desk chair, vs the cheaper desk chair), if you buy quality items, they will last you a lot longer. So investing in good quality pays off in the end.

[@LukeCatleugh]

I absolutely love that Carol, you & your Father are right for sure x

[@aprilsmith1166]

A friend of mine says "If you buy cheap you buy twice"! 😉

[@ehpeachylove]

Exactly! I always say you get what you pay for…

[@一本のうんち]

i partially agree. nowadays if you buy stuff that's more expensive doesn't guarantee by default better longevity, just better brand/status/percieved value. big companies literally have people with specialized degrees working in planned obolescence departments making sure that you'll need to replace the item in a certain time period so they can turn a profit again. more expensive stuff will be just designed to last a bit longer than cheaper one and that would be factored into the price so makes no difference. it's mostly prevalent in tech and clothing, less so in furniture though. Want a good furniture go see your local carpenter.

[@molliemae6855]

Yes! Yesterday was Iwan and today Luke!! You both are my FAVORITE male KZbinrs!!

[@molliemae6855]

I feel that some items at IKEA that I think will be inexpensive are not and vice versa. Am I alone??

[@sandrapugh1373]

I agree

[@sandrapugh1373]

Iwan and Luke are my fav male youtubers too.

[@janetmoore1124]

I do have to chuckle about the bookcase. The reality of having a library is that no matter how much you swear you won't add to it, or limit it in some fashion, it always grows. :) High Five!

[@suekey8072]

Love a good mooch around IKEA you and Ewan have such a good friendship you seem to have such good fun together

[@noelle1958]

So glad you moved the mirror. It was too small above the fireplace. Looking forward to seeing the bookcase build. Enjoying your videos 😊

[@noelle1958]

@luke_catleugh_official sorry not sure what this is about 🤷‍♀️

[@annmariemccartan3956]

LOVE THE MIRROR BY THE DOOR IT LOOKS GREAT 😃

[@bonitaparry7249]

The lamp and mirror are lovely and look perfect together in the hall.

[@vintagegal541]

Hey Luke, I can't believe that I'm the first to comment today, Feb. 22nd. I watched Mr. C's vlog last night and really enjoyed the trip through IKEA. I haven't been to my local one in years. It's in Renton Washington in the Seattle Metro area. I liked that sage green kitchen that Mr. C was looking at. I'm looking forward to watching your video now, but I had to get on the comments first! Happy shopping day!! I had to get back on after you mentioned the traffic. Our traffic in the entire Seattle Metro area, in ANY direction is a nightmare no matter what time of day, with or without construction. I grew up in Seattle and it has taken on a whole different vibe from when I was younger. I feel your traffic frustration!!

[@LukeCatleugh]

Ahh thank you so much for joining along & hello from across the pond🧡🇺🇸

[@vintagegal541]

@@LukeCatleugh I always look forward to yours and Mr. C's vlogs. I call you two my London Lads. Hope that ok

[@sarahbarker8198]

Love this one Luke. You and Mr C compliment each other’s videos but don’t do exact copy’s . So win win whenever you get together. The things you choose were very stylish especially the lamp and mirror . Zara’s reaction was just great. She’s very understanding and obviously knows you so well.😊

[@sallywest5634]

Oh my goodness I enjoyed Mr C's video yesterday and now yours today Luke. Love your buys. That wallpaper and dado rail that you like was a thing in the 80's. I had my sitting room and dining room in this style..I loved it and so glad to see it coming back in style. Thanks for sharing your trip and your lovely soup. Xx

[@lindaroberts2508]

Love you guys, two naughty school boys together great watch. 🤗🤗🐱🐕🐱

[@dianedelandro5027]

If you ever fancy a IKEA trip out of London, go to Southampton. Lovely store and walk across the bridge to the shopping centre with John Lewis and tons of great shops and restaurants.

[@LukeCatleugh]

Ahh I visited the Southampton store back in 2019 to help a friend move home there. It’s such a big store, Southampton was great ❤

[@juliehemmings]

Tip for removing sticky labels (advice from Antique dealer) spray just the label with furniture polish so it is thickly covered. Leave it for about 15-30 mins then it should just wipe off taking the glue with it 😊👍

[@ferganwalker]

Great Vlog Luke. Lovely to see Mr Carrington join you for a shopping binge. Well Luke, your will-power failed you. But, you did buy some fantastic items. I hope Zara was pleased with your purchases x

[@kitkatbrabson2794]

Love the mirror and lamp in the hall, such a vibe xxx

[@gazelle8981]

Thankyou luke another enjoyable video. Loved the mirror you brought and cushions are beautiful colour.well done for finding those bargains. I find you and Mr C so funny together and you always have fun.i cannot start the day without my coffee.is sets me up for the day also.

[@katherinerutsala3478]

I think I saw some IKEA shoppers recognizing Mr. C, or maybe both of you! Thanks for the fun vlog.

[@sarahgilks1366]

Another Amazing Vlog, love a Trip To IKEA with you both,,, Absolutely Laughing When You Said “” You Have Tomato Sauce in The Glove Compartment “” ❤❤❤

[@susandibble3525]

I replaced all my solid kitchen units on one side for the open plan shelving. I can honestly say I would never go back to searching in bloody cupboards again. Seriously go for it, you will be smiling every time you cook 🤗

[@juliemorrison7477]

Loved looking around IKEA with you 2 getting great ideas without the hassle of going around myself lol Wow love the lamp and mirror the perfect place eventually!!! Those cookies look amazing

[@ehpeachylove]

Good morning from a cold Sunny Northern California Luke. Enjoyed Iwan and now having my morning coffee with you. Love the sage green kitchen, and really like the black and white tile floor and it’s so classic. My Nana and grand fathers home In Ipswich had that tile in their entry hallway. It’s just timeless. Loved the tour around IKEA. The one I’d need to go to is miles away from me. Loved you guys in Home Sense…I am so happy you bought the lamp and mirror. I loved the Dalmatian dog in the sale area… cute stuff . I find most stickers are annoying tbh. I like the bigger mirror over the fireplace. Much better in the entryway. The lamp is perfect and the sideboard looks great . Loved your soup and bead supper. I made a vegetable soup using the broth from boiling my roasted chicken carcass that was so tasty and have enough for the week. Perfect for the cold weather we are having this winter. I also bought a wonderful loaf of wheat bread at this polish shop that has all natural ingredients. Have a great rest of the week Luke, Zara, and Maggie ❤❤❤❤

[@patriciadejesus4051]

Just beautiful how you decorated the entryway!

[@dalereid4199]

Ewen is the genius from the show with Stacey 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@d.d.mac.3773]

That is the absolute perfect place for the new mirror and lamp. I love it there. Also, a delicious looking dinner, especially those cookies.

[@Monica_6521]

I thought for sure you were going to buy the Italian looking flower pot. I loved the Ralph Lauren Lamp and the Mirror. You placed them perfectly together; they l👀k perfect! I hope you're feeling better.

[@jimb4789]

Enjoyed watching you both at Ikea 🙂. Such a dangerous place to find cool things with great prices. I spend hours there looking around.

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Luke I really like the mirror and lamp. Good choices. You two have so much fun hang out together. Thanks for sharing.❤

[@jeffgumer3784]

Your coats and jackets are so stylish. You wear them well!

[@leannm1696]

The mirror and lamp look so nice in the entry way, you'll never regret getting classic items. Much love from California ❤

[@suzannevosbeck7489]

Great trip to ikea!!! Love where the lamp and mirror ended up!! Excellent choice!!! Tag removal-Goo Gone!!! It’s the best!!

[@lizmarin9568]

I'm glad you swapped out the entry lamp! The previous one was rather dinky. The Ralph Lauren lamp is very smart and classic.

[@juliesteele-smith1553]

Me too Luke... if i love it you can guarantee it's expensive but as they say " you get what you pay for". Sometimes you just have to treat yourself. Great vlog.

[@loramiller5356]

Now I miss Ikea. I have to drive to another state to go to one. So it was fun to see it. Have a great day.

[@lauradavison4044]

Mirror looks great in the hall, was a bit small over the fireplace , I felt. Look forward to seeing the bookcase build, IKEA stuff goes together so well and for the price is sturdy.

[@mandysteer9860]

Loved a trip to Ikea, the black and white floor is one of my favs, I have wanted to try that in our bathroom for a while. You can go to Ikea for a couple of things and leave with a car full!

[@janicetimmins5984]

Love it when you and Iwan shop together you are such good mates. Do you really carry tomato sauce in your car 😂. The lamp and mirror look great on the sideboard and such a great bargain. Where you forgiven for spending the money 👍🏻. Take care x

[@summertyme9046]

Please show us where the lamp ends up!😀

[@freyalyn5280]

Excellent finds! I'm glad you went ahead with the mirror and the lamp, because they're classics 😁

Luke, I could watch your videos on repeat and it still wouldn't be enough, such a beautiful guy xx I wish you all the best for your channel and for your good health x

[@juliewestwood4252]

The lamp and mirror look fantastic in hallway, must agree it didn't suit living room but really like where it is

[@juliewestwood4252]

@luke_catleugh_official I've had a message luke saying I've won prize didn't know if it was a scam sent from someone else

[@marianhopton1173]

Love the lamp, Luke. Great buy!

Hi Luke may need a trip to ikea, you are lucky Maggie doesn't moult much my nearly !3 year old black Labrador never stops moulting

[@sophiegafney4597]

I am tempted by that burgundy red wall colour for my new living room or bedroom that we are having built soon. I have a sage green kitchen as I love green, but I am trying to steer away from it for the new extension. Much love, Soph.x

[@sootyginger4388]

Love it when you are both together 💕 the buys are lovely don't feel guilty get what makes you happy 😁 your home looks great.

[@elizabethhamilton8388]

Thanks for the tour around IKEA. Love where you ended up hanging the mirror you bought. It looks so much better there than where you first hung it. I knew you were going to buy that Ralph Lauren lamp! LOL. It looks really good where are you placed it also. Can’t wait to see you put your new shelving unit together for more books. Have a great day. Hugs from the southeast coast of Florida 😎🦩🌞🦩😎

Thank you guys two great shops and a lovely day out .xxx

🙋hi from Scotland hi Luke great vidio I have the billy double door with full glass bookcases in black I bought the strip lighting and ran it full length if the door in the inside it looks amazing and lights up all the glasses cheers 🍷 till next time great day out

[@jojenks8688]

Luke , I purchased from Amazon a set of connecting screw bolts to join two Billy bookcases together. I haven’t actually used them yet as I’m painting my bookshelves

[@karonfrench1012]

The mirror is perfect where it ended up. So glad you changes your mind for above the fireplace. Great vlog, very entertaining xx

[@jakimcmurdo4810]

Like how you styled the lamp (which is gorgeous) and the mirror 🇬🇧❤️😄

[@lully381]

I am a pen and paper person too! I am famous for my lists!! I like the strip lights for £4, I want some in my dresser, may have to find a store near me and go look see! I personally love a chequered black and white floor, very classic. The Mirror looks super cool in the hallway, love it there. That lamp was a hefty price though, nice an all but blimey it was spensivo!! However, sometimes paying that little extra for good quality and a well known designer, for what it is, it was a goood price. The main thing was your smile when buying it, that was priceless and so worth it just for the pleasure it clearly brought you. Wev'e all been there I think, I know I have from time to time! Thanks for letting us tag along!

[@jillmoorhouse8888]

I love watching you go round Ikea as ive never been to one.The mirror looks much better near the door than over the fire and i wasn't sold on the lamp at first but now its on the sideboard i really like it. Soup looked delicious too x x

[@makeyourselfathome6826]

Such a fun vlog. I’m obsessed with my new bread machine too. I love when you go shopping you gravitate to all the same things I would. That mirror is gorgeous and you found the perfect spot for it. Beautiful.

[@christinelilly1340]

A definite YES! on the checkerboard floor!!

[@libbyhinson4676]

What a great buy on the gorgeous lamp! Love the mirror too! 😊

[@carolinepajak4064]

Hi Luke, such a lovely video to watch. It did cheer me up, thank you for that. I hope you are now feeling better? Hope the bookcase came together ok. Zara does make me laugh. The Ralph Lauren lamp is stunning, a lovely addition to your flat. 😘

[@ferganwalker]

You definitely found the best wall to place the mirror on. 🪞 Luke, you need to take Zara's opinion on board. This lady knows what she is talking about. Scrumptious food made, you are a fabulous Cook/Baker. Woof Woof Hello to Maggie.

[@maryrosed8475]

Mirror and Lamp fabulous in the hallway. Great purchase.

[@kpgunther]

Welp, as you say 'Bob's your uncle, Fanny's your aunt', or 'there you are'... Well done, Luke, with the mirror and Ralph Lauren lamp! Both are stunning pieces of home decor. You have traditional taste which will serve you well as it never goes 'out of style/trend'. Lot's of love!

[@juliespencer1164]

great video good to see you guys out and about some great items in Ikea and HomeSense, the mirror and the lamp look amazing, can not wait to see you design up your bookcase. love to you all xxx

[@LisaCSwain]

You HAD to buy that lamp, Luke!! I wasn't sure about that mirror until you hung it opposite the stained glass. That is exactly how a mirror should be placed - it reflects something else beautiful and bounces the light in your entryway. Well done!!

[@LukeCatleugh]

Ahh thank you lisa❤ we absolutely love how it has came together x

[@janlisseman6302]

Hi Luke, good vlog, l usually have an Ikea visit once a year, that is usually enough for me, the lamp is great, we are having a new bedside table in a couple of weeks and l want a new lamp so will have to do T.K.Maxx by us, mirror looks great in the hall, Billy bookcases are great l have a small one in our spare bedroom but love it, soup and bread looked really nice, good luck with putting up the Billy bookcase x

[@sylvanramble1757]

Loved watching your shopping trip. My first time here, but my last. That soup and bread looked so delicious! So glad you moved that round mirror as it looks great by the entrance. Many years ago my cousin shared a tip with me about lighter fluid. You can use it to get rid of bubble gum on clothes, shoes, your hair, etc. It will also get out ink and grease stains on clothes, even really old stains. But most importantly, it will remove the sticky left over from price tags so fast you will be amazed. A word of warning, though, it will dissolve rayon or silky clothing. It may also harm precious metals. So be cautious where you use it. I am never without a bottle in my cupboard.

[@lyndamcdougal3300]

I’m off to ikea tomorrow, the Gateshead one. I love ikea. Kalax units are on my list. You two are so much fun. X

Hi Luke loved having a nosey around Ikea wit u & Iwan we don't have one close to us otherwise I'd b in there 4 days 😂 I knew the lamp would jump into ur trolley 🛒😂 it's stunning, the soup looks gorgeous, take care have a lovely weekend & week ahead lots of love to you Zara & little Maggie 💕💕💕

Hi Luke, great lil shopping vlog as always 🙏 Love that new round mirror in the hallway much better than over the fireplace 👌 The lamp is a great investment piece looks fabulous there too 👍 Have a lovely weekend lovely 😘

[@maureenclarke7074]

Hi Luke, I love yr new mirror and where you have hung it over the sideboard reflecting the stained glass window opposite. I think the sideboard would be great painted black an ebony vibe with a gold trim somewhere on it. I also think the lampshade would be better in a pale gold colour with some black detail on it, another art deco vibe. Its actually possible to paint a shade or you could source a wall paper to stick on. Have a look at Pinterest for ideas. I love following yourself Zara and Iwan.

[@beeutiffle]

Blast the stickers with a hairdryer. Heats the glue and usually comes right off with no residue.

[@LukeCatleugh]

That’s a great idea!❤

[@ivyc7336]

Hi Luke! We once got a shelf from Ikea and yes it did weigh a ton. My husband almost got a hernia it was so heavy. Lol 😄 I'm glad you stayed conservative and didn't go overboard with the shopping. That's hard to do in IKEA & Homesense. You have better self control than I do, but the lamp was a great find for sure! I'm surprised you also didn't get the tan leather foot stool. Thanks for another fun shopping trip. Much love from Fort Worth, Texas! 😊⚘🌱

The Clearance section in Homesense and TK Maxx are always worth a browse for fantastic bargains. Always enjoyable to see you and Iwan and of course Zara! Mayonnaise is brilliant for taking sticky labels off non porous items - put a small amount of mayo onto the label, let it soak in and wipe off. Surgical spirit, rubbing alcohol or cheap Vodka can be used to remove any greasiness if needed 😊
