@@KivaBrent glad you like it. We are gutting our kitchen and doing IKEA cabinets, and have found a company like this that can do inserts of almost any design to customize the doors. I can’t wait!
@ there are several out there, the one I’ve been talking to is called My Overlays. They have some ready to buy styles that fit, or, I’m sending them a shape I want and the IKEA cabinet and size, and they will create it based on those dimensions.
Kiva, I TRULY love all your decor ideas, however, 'We' choose the colours we love and can live with for a long time. It is always a choice, not just a trend. Your home should always bring you JOY!! Best Wishes from Canada 🇨🇦
Love these videos! For the room divider, remove the plain fabric panels, use them as a pattern & use the floral sheet set to replace the plain panels. For the small armoire with the black doors, you can use wallpaper to upgrade the doors. Easy DIY's can upgrade a lot of these plain Ikea furniture pieces. And that floral sheet...there are literally so many DIYs you could use that gorgeous material for instead of using them as sheets.
Kiva, IKEA isn’t the only hard worker (and they have teams!) - YOU do all the hard work for us! So appreciate your professional opinion on quality of products and what decorating style they would suit. Kudos!
It can definitely be overwhelming. I look at what they have online before going in and taking screenshots and give myself a few days to narrow it down. Usually I narrow it down so much I just have it delivered instead of the hassle of driving all the way over there, paying bridge toll, walking through the maze of the store and standing in line waiting to be rung up then having to drive home. So much easier!
I try to go midweek when it's mostly seniors in trendy walking shoes (Minnesota). If I still get overwhelmed, a coffee and some apple cake in the cafeteria does the trick!
Hi Kiva, Yes I do like hanging out with you! Thank you for the finds, it is really helpful as Ikea can be sooo overwhelming! Hope you and yours have a wonderful Christmas! I think it’s going to be quite a hot one here in Australia! 🎄
Hej I Love IKEA and I love your energy. I am very pleased I found your channel xx just had to add, I love the towels, especially the large bath sheet. I bought 3 bath sheets about 30 yrs and they are still with me, the more they are washed, it seems to revive them. They wash beautifully and even the people at the IKEA store where I purchased them have been amazed too xx
'...same as the one at Container Store which is fifty million dollars'😂Love your sense of humor. PLUS you're almost a momma!!!💙 PS "The gloves are off" (gotta be older to know it!)
How did I go this long without knowing about your channel ??? I LOVE your content, your humor, and your energy ! Instant subscriber - can’t wait to watch every one of your videos ! ❤
"...Christmas is going to throw up in my house!" 😂😂😂 Personally, I LOVE Ikea Christmas decor, and I don't even observe Christmas! 😳😋 I would love to see your picks, though. 💖🙌😺
I went to ikea a month ago and i didnt see much. I love the yellow-green towel, the sheets and a few more things you showcased today. Kiva, i love your green high chairs, i think i'm going to upholster my swivel chair with that green. Thank you for the video. You look gorgeous, my friend. 😘🙏
I've watched your content for years because you're an excellent designer, woman of color, queer queenie, and share my appreciation for wicker baskets. However, I am a color girlie so I appreciate #16 and #19. It's nice to feel seen 😂😂😂
i have #18 and it’s the BEST nap pillow for a couch. i got the insert in this shape, and the pillow case ended up being cheapest and it’s so cozy and cute. the shape is way more supportive of your neck than a square one, and you don’t have to take your bed pillow on and off the couch every time you wanna nap.
I'm glad that you said that. I just bought 2 of these in the light brown color along with the feather insert. I really like the shape and the color is exactly what I want...plus...ahhhh...NAPS 😌. So good!
Nice list! I actually really like that vertical dresser and I wouldn't mind combining it with my horizontal one, but apparently it isn't available in my country. :/
Great video. Sad that my nearest Ikea is nearly 200 miles from me. Congrats to ya'll on your precious baby!!!! I'm just going to guess this is going to be a spoiled baby. Hugs!
Thank you for showing us a few new little treasures. I need to go to IKEA by myself one of these days so I can take all the time i want to see and touch everything! LOL! Am I the only "tactile" person? I need to touch stuff to see if I like it. The pandemic almost killed me since we were not supposed to touch anything!
What!!! Indira bedspread used to be $10!! I used to use them underneath my lace table cloths when I opened up my table to seat 12 people. You have enough glasses. lol; that's what I have to tell myself.
Thank you, Kiva, for your recommendations. As IKEA is obviously worldwide, I found some of those products in my country (Germany). However, some of your findings are simply not available here. What a pity!
Ikea U.S has alot of lovely items compare to most Ikea stores in Europe. Ikea Italy doesn't carry alot of these items. I often find myself drooling while watching these vlogs.
Please do a video on ikea pax and komplements! I need to know how to put drawer dividers in the mesh wire drawers (I think the container store has dividers for those type of drawers that clip on, but I’m not sure).
Wait..what??? What did I miss. This is exciting news. I so excited for you and wife. Congratulations! The healthy lifestyle journey is paying off. Cheers to wellness and healthy the best "home additon".❤
I never thought of that! I just adapted a third cat (making me a childless cat dad) and I don’t know how she’ll handle that. I won’t tempt fate and am off to get another butter dish!! Thank you for this!🤗
haha! i bought a butter dish with a lid you can push back. one of my 3 cats figured out how to do it, so now we keep our covered butter dish in a drawer🙈
@@kathyhandler5254 Mine pushed the whole butter dish off the table to enjoy some soft butter with broken glass topping! Eeek! Luckily I heard the crash and prevented some internal bleeding!
#9 products in 20 minutes (the 27 seconds is the intro/outro). Go KB, spsrinkle your magic decorating fairy dust on us! Whew! THAT was a ride. I'm exhausted but happy & strangely energized, esp. for someone who has, alas, no IKEA for 135 miles. again, fun to hang out with you. And STOP TEASING US about the guest room, Baby Girl's room, other New Decor! Mean, very, mean! I know, anticipation is half the fun. But in these dark days...
I hear you on blue making a come back, so why is it that no one anywhere has anything to say about the blue “Scurvy” cabinets? I’m calling it that because that’s what the word look like to me even though it’s one of those difficult Swedish names that IKEA likes to give to their products. They look really nice online but I haven’t been able to see any IRL or in a video anywhere at all!
I have a quick question for the Kiva crew. I am thinking of color drenching my bedroom a royal blue or hunter green. I know that I want to drench but I’m not sure of the color. The room is battleship gray now (the color when I bought the house) I want to do moody and serene for the bedroom. It has two windows one is a nice size and the other is stained glass so I’m not worried about it being a cave. Let me know what you all think. I’m open to suggestions because I know someone might have an idea that I never thought about and fall in love with it. This is a great community that’s why I’m putting this out there. Thanks everyone!!🎉
the quality of the jewelry box isnt great. the inside material is kind of cheap. I found when I looked at some of the Komplement stuff that it didnt seem high quality and was coming undone. For the price they are charging now for Komplement items, the quality should be better.
im sorry and I am a fan of your ideas but IKEA is not doing it. I grew up in Sweden and IKEA is part of the culture but something is going on as is way too overpriced. Im going to Temu

Such a great idea!!!

Just one voice here but I’d love a winter/Christmas video. I watch all of your videos
Meeee tooo. 😊
I just discovered her and really really want a winter video!
Thank you for taking the time to add the links to the items...., Well not every influencer does that, thank you for doing so
Of course! I love doing it for IKEA because you can see what’s in stock at your local store :)
Oh my gosh the Kilberget chest will fit perfectly in a place where I've been hunting for a storage solution for ages! You're a lifesaver! Thank you! 🤩

And, idk if it's bc baby's almost here, but you seem more playful 🥰
In the 1970s a hot decorating trend had been sheets, decorating with sheets, a staple gun y"all covered a wall, etc with sheets

Of all the things you reference, that Maze Runner reference was a surprise ❤❤❤

That Glamberget wardrobe would look incredible with wallpaper on the “chalkboard” anthracite portion.
Always a wealth of knowledge
Thank you, love your vlogs. 💖💖💖
Yay thank you so so much!!
Nice list! I actually really like that vertical dresser and I wouldn't mind combining it with my horizontal one, but apparently it isn't available in my country. :/
Omg I would LOVE a video about brutalist design, hardly anyone has done a video about it
Same! Not much out there about it.
Great video. Sad that my nearest Ikea is nearly 200 miles from me. Congrats to ya'll on your precious baby!!!! I'm just going to guess this is going to be a spoiled baby. Hugs!
I love the cat mat! ❤
Love your vids. Thank you
Thanks so much!! 💕
I'm so with you on the zippers I always want zippers to match unless thats he actually look (and it looks good, which is rare)
Yes exactly!!!
Ikea linen is wonderful..ivhave duvet covers 5 years old and still look fantastic and I have a bed jogging fur baby😅
Thank you for this!
Thanks for watching!!
Please do a Christmas video 🎄🎄🎄
I love IKEA ❤
It’s the best!!
That was great! Thanks!
Yay thanks so much for watching!! 💕
Thank you Kiva!
Thanks for watching!!
Ok thanks. On my way to IKEA after work with my list. 😂😊❤❤
And I love that for me
❤🎉

My very own fairy godmother of interior design... How cool is that!?
Rose Gold Flatware at IKEA?🥰
Gray Brown Oak Veneer Pax?🥰
The Food Storage Bag reminds Me of the Horsebit bag by Hermes
What!!! Indira bedspread used to be $10!! I used to use them underneath my lace table cloths when I opened up my table to seat 12 people.
You have enough glasses. lol; that's what I have to tell myself.
Kiva, thanks for telling us the prices
Of course!!
Glamberget doors can be spray painted with chalk board paint. That would be COOL BEANS !
I believe the storklinta is more expensive because they have to cut more due to the smaller shelves. I could be wrong ;)
I heard that dresser is less studry than the Malm one. Is it true?
Yep. There’s more hardware too.
Thank you, Kiva, for your recommendations. As IKEA is obviously worldwide, I found some of those products in my country (Germany). However, some of your findings are simply not available here. What a pity!
Just a reminder that we are shifting to sustainability. So long live pre-loved, and using what we already have!

THE BEDSPREAD, Kiva Likes - black and purple/green.....its BEETLE JUICE!!!!!!! LOL :)
The green doors on the Pax looks good.... the grey part though I would have to paint as not a grey person
This might be totally random but I'm new to your channel and I just want to say that I looooove your name. "Kiva" Gorgeous name 🥰👍
Aw thank you so much and welcome to the channel! So happy that you’re here :)
We got the KORSKOVALL duvet cover for the kidlet. It is perfect in her room.
Ikea Winter video, please! ❤
Please do a video on ikea pax and komplements! I need to know how to put drawer dividers in the mesh wire drawers (I think the container store has dividers for those type of drawers that clip on, but I’m not sure).
I always buy King size for my Queen bed. It hangs so much nicer.
Is the baby girl here? You are beaming.
Not yet!!

If you have a cat, reconsider the clear butter dish. You know your cat will never leave the dish alone if it knows the butter is in there.

Kiva, I assume you also have year round allergies 😂 We sound just alike atm 😂 Ever so slightly stuffy.
I like all except #32 the wall lamp/boob lamp, I can’t unsee it. 😮😢
I noticed the green lamp as well. The boob like lamp looks odd for me 😂
Maze Runner 😂
