Sorry I'm so late but scented candles are in every room in my house. It is such a must have. We just love a clean and fresh smell. Amazing tips Today thank you Kristen! ☺
I just use the ikea candle containers to put my daily face tools in like tweezers, face roller, chapstick, etc. They look super cute in there and it’s super practical
With my glass candle jars I put like paper clips and thumb tacks in there so it looks better than the boxes they come in! Tip for getting the little bit of wax out: put them in the freezer for a couple hours, and the wax will come out way easier than at room temperature ❤️
For the candle jars, - terrarium - succulent pot -mini vase -bobby pin / hairtie ect holder Or you could mix together the very last parts of the candles and make a new one 😊
With 3 kids that apple slicer is WONDERFUL. They are great for fast school lunch snacks. Also great for baking apples too. Use baking string to tie them back together and stuff with marshmallows and chocolate, on top of a gram cracker. The glass candle container is great for succulents. Line the bottom with sand and pebbles then plant a succulent... they are easier to care for. Also the glass is perfect for fridge veggie storage. I have some silicone stretch covers that I use with the glass. I love clear containers so I can see the state of the contents. I cut celery and pack in the jar, fill with water and cover with the cover and that's all the celery I need prepped for the week. Easy to grap, slab (peanut butter), and bag for lunches.
About those candles, when you finish them you can always repurpose the empty glass for making your own candles at home. There's videos on making candles if you're interested in it, just a suggestion 👍👍
For the candle glasses u can fill them up with pebbles or dirt of some sort or layers of both dirt and pebbles and put in some little artificial or real succulents
For reusing the candle jars, I read that if you put a vanilla scented tealight on top of coffee beans then it will heat the beans up and make a vanilla coffee scent. So you could try that if it sounds like your kind of scent. And it would probably look really nice and chic too!!
I have a idea for all the extra glass of your candles, 1) You could use them to hold flowers 2) you could make your own candles 3) you could use the for storage
I use cute candle jars to store cotton rounds, cotton swabs, dental floss picks and cute small soaps. I put all the jars together on top of a mirrored tile and it looks super cute. My candle jars are different sizes, have really cute silver/chrome lids with different finishes and patterns which makes them look super interesting clustered together.
you can use the containers to make a new candle. I made on e from the left overs of wax of the very nice smelling candles that do not burn all the way, you can by the wicks and the metal positioning device from amazon 60 wicks for 5 or 6 $. I was so happy to be able to do that with my more expensive candles or the ones i love the smell and do not want to waste the left over wax. Also, if the wax comes from multiple left over candles they make layers and your new candle smells different as it burns. another thing you can use the ones with lid for is to store different things inside, especially if you have the same shape and size, they are great organizers on top of the desk, for clips, pens, brushes etc, i sue them as well for painting as a water jar. you can use them in the bathroom to hold the salt baths, the cotton tips or cotton balls or other items, like my make up: mascaras, lip gloss, lip liners etc, they also make things look neat if they are similar and transparent glass. i used them for storing the nuts and seeds as well as chia seeds and flax seed in the fridge, in acrylic trays so will no go bad, they are super easy to see and use here you have it! enjoy :) thank you for the video, very helpful
i use the glass from the candles for decoration, add colored sand and stones, mini christmas balls, christmas lights, potpourri, as a penholder, to plant plants in as gifts for friends (buy cheap pot less plants and pot them yourself), put some glass less candles in them
Hi Kristen just want to say a huge thank you for your channel, I love all that you show, and I love that it's all from Ikea, which makes the whole thing so helpful when it comes to me planning my own home decor. I'm soon moving house and your ideas and demonstrations really are helping me visualise my new space and how I will make it beautiful and functional :)
Fill the empty candle glass with small rocks you have collected on your vacations and use the as paper weights, pieces in decor arrangements, etc. You may need to glue them in. Label the bottom with date and place. I am using one for beach combing small items this summer. When your fake plants need cleaning/dusting, wash/rinse temp in your bathtub or take them into shower with you. Let them drip dry on a towel or bath mat that you place on the floor before getting in the shower. Put glass votive holders in the candle holders to add dripless color.
Love the faux plants and plate holder. I don't like open flame candles. I feel like they're not very safe but inside a lantern is good. Some great ideas here.
aw!!! I see it now!! was crazy day today! love everything! I cannot live without the apple slicer either!!! I like Ikea also a lot! thank for all your must haves!
I’ve never shopped at IKEA, but I think I’m going too. You have inspired me to organize and decorate by changing just a few things. Just keep the organizing videos coming. I use my old candle jars and put succulents in them. Usually fake ones! Have a good day.
I can't remember what video it was (I recently wanted SO many of your videos so they are all blending together!), maybe your moving video, but you showed us a concrete planter that you DIYed. Could you make a video on that? It was so cute!
I reuse Yankee Candle containers clean them out real good, put through dishwasher. because they have an airtight lid. I put my spices in them and label them. I can see what is getting low and put on shopping list.
Love ikea, I love watching your videos, although it makes me feel the NEED to go to ikea, love that it's a store we have in the UK so the ideas transfer further x
I really wish there was an IKEA relatively close to where I live :( unfortunately the closest one is a state away but loved this video so much Kristen I'm going to try to find similar items elsewhere because I just cannot afford the shipping it's outrageous. Love you so much Kristen thank you again for a wonderful helpful video!!!!!!!
I love your recommendations. I will be moving out on my own and I'm just brainstorming on how I will be decorating my place, even though I haven't found one yet. My question is, how do you keep your counter clutter free?
As always, AWESOME video!! I am going to IKEA this weekend to get things to organize and decorate my new place... this is sooooo on time and helpful!! ❤❤
Love this video, super helpful and I love your style! I did want to comment, and I'm sorry to be that person, but I would urge you to switch your kitty to wet food. Cats really shouldn't have just dry food all the time because they require a lot of moisture in their diets. It's extremely important for their health and longevity. I encourage you to not take my word for it and do your own research but my kitty really loves the Tiki Cat After Dark and the Nutro Chunky Loaf Chicken, both have amazing and bio-appropriate ingredients. Sorry again to be off topic, I don't mean to be preachy at all, just thought I'd comment. Thanks for the video!
Our cat had to be put on dry food because he kept being ill. He refused the boiled chicken and rice, and the steamed fish, that the vet suggested. But, the dried food worked. (High end) However, he is an unusual cat, as we used to have to encourage him to eat and he has always liked to drink. Now, that he's older, he has an appetite and has some wet food too. But, at 15 years old, he still has a sensitive tummy. He's not a cheap cat to feed! But, I do know that it's not usually good to just feed cats with dry food.
Wait, was that a basket for tissues on the table????? That’s a great idea cause I love tissues in rooms but it looks so dumb in the box. Also I love you!! And yay ikea Can you do a video on baskets???? Cause there are so many options I get overwhelmed.
First I love ur videos!!!! Please please please can u show us your daily house cleaning routine and how you stay on top of things and u can use the candle jars as a clear bathroom organizer for like cotten balls and qtips ECT. Or maybe even rings, earrings stuff like that
No price on the tall black lantern? I’m keen on most of the products, but the lantern topped my list, I think I’m in love. Do you remember how much it was? TIA and thanks for a great production as always.
Which one of these must haves is your favorite?!🙌🏼😍🤗
IDK im going to watch the vid
I have a question,does your "husband" have any interest in you're cleaning and organizing?
The bedding 😍😍😍😍 me and my wife are definitely getting it!! 😊 thanks for sharing Kristen!😘
Sorry I'm so late but scented candles are in every room in my house. It is such a must have. We just love a clean and fresh smell. Amazing tips Today thank you Kristen! ☺
The King Zoot he likes the end result hahah
The candle glasses are great for the bathroom: q-tip, make-up remover pads, toothbrushes, make-up brushes etc
I like to use them as drinking glasses as well
I just use the ikea candle containers to put my daily face tools in like tweezers, face roller, chapstick, etc. They look super cute in there and it’s super practical
With my glass candle jars I put like paper clips and thumb tacks in there so it looks better than the boxes they come in!

❤️
So fun to see when there are so many who love Ikea. 😊 I live only 30 minutes from Ikea's head office and shop😉
For the candle jars,
- terrarium
- succulent pot
-mini vase
-bobby pin / hairtie ect holder
Or you could mix together the very last parts of the candles and make a new one 😊

Use jars for stationery items, make up, jewelry, q tips, cotton wool etc.

The empty candle glass , cotton wool balls and cue tips look great in these even hair grip soo many uses .
I have a idea for all the extra glass of your candles,
1) You could use them to hold flowers
2) you could make your own candles
3) you could use the for storage
I just moved to my first ever house and I think that this video came out the right time..loving all those recommendations..❤❤❤❤
yay! good luck with your new home
@@KristenMcGowan thank you so much!!❤❤
I use candle jars as brush holders but you could also use them as dessert glasses, especially for layered ones.
I really admire your style in decorating. You are such inspiration.
I put scented tea lights in the glass. Perfect in a bathroom or outside on a deck or patio!
I repurpose candle jars for votives and tea lights, makeup brushes, plants, plastic utensils, q-tips, pens/pencils/small office supplies...the list goes on!

Hi There, I use the empty class containers from small candles for desserts, no bake cheesecake, puddings, etc
i use the glass from the candles for decoration, add colored sand and stones, mini christmas balls, christmas lights, potpourri, as a penholder, to plant plants in as gifts for friends (buy cheap pot less plants and pot them yourself), put some glass less candles in them

Going for duvet cover , candles, lantern , square pillow , plate rack 😍
No hablo inglés pero me encantan tus videos y me gusta mucho tu decoración, un beso desde españa
Did you know that you can use your apple corer for making potato wedges?
I use it for the tiny seedless watermelons too. I cut the top and bottom off then use the apple slicer.
Wow, will try. Hi from Orlando
@@wqmanawqke3375 j
Thank you two so much! Creativity!

The faux plants, candles and plate organizer are all the things I need!!!!
Drinking game for the word “really” 😂 Great video. I saw a couple items that I may purchase. Thanks!
Love apple slicer- got mine for $1 at Dollar Tree. It just occurred to me to use it to cut potatoes if you want them in smaller pieces to cook faster.
Merry Christmas! Your videos are amazing! I thought I was good at decorating. Keep them coming.
I like all the must have, especially the apple slicer!!!
I use candle jars for my makeup brushes☺️

Those duvet cover is a most for me and so much more .. thanks love ☺️
The plate holders are great for organizing books (cook books in kitchen or I use it for kids books)
I’ve been told to buy an ikea insert one size larger than the cover, helps with the thickness
I love the ikea candle 🕯
I want to buy the plate organizer now! That is so awesome!
Thanks for sharing , I'll be going tomorrow
Thanks for all the ideas I love IKEA moving and I want to be more organized😊
I reuse Yankee Candle containers clean them out real good, put through dishwasher. because they have an airtight lid. I put my spices in them and label them. I can see what is getting low and put on shopping list.
I've been looking for new bedding!! Thanks girl!!!

Great ideas, and another very good video. Keep up the good work kris
My cats have definitely burned their whiskers off on my candles 😹

Super helpful! I've never been to Ikea...one day!
BE READY TO HAVE YOUR LIFE CHANGED!!!! I just went for the first time and i am ready to give them all my pennies!!!!
Would be pretty and lush to put 3 of the faux hanging plants in a basket and add some moss to cover the visible bits of plastic.
I love em all. The candles n stick n plants is my favorites. ❤i enjoy all your videos
