Hi everyone, welcome back to my channel and welcome to my ikea hall so we went to ikea yesterday
We haven't been there for about six months or more
And there were a lot of things that we wanted and needed and I think we did pretty well with what we've got
So i'm going to show you everything that we've bought so homeware
then the children's and then some of the food bits as well because
Every time you go to ikea you just have to buy some of the food
They just do some really random and some different stuff and it's not a trip without going to that little bit as well
So, yes without further ado, let's get into it
Firstly we bought quite a few things for the bathroom. So we bought these towels and I think they were reduced
Well, they were 7.50 each
And it's the big ones not the bath sheet, but the size down from that. So quite big
We just got two white ones. And yeah, they actually feel really nice quality
I don't think i've ever bought towels from ikea before but they do feel really really soft. So that was the first thing
next for our bathroom
We got this bath mat and our bathroom is really tiny and we have got a bath in there at the moment
It's just too big from ikea as well. So we just wanted something small and this bath mat only cost
3.50 which I thought was really good
Next is a bathroom bin and we have this exact same one in our bathroom right now, and I don't know about you
But I can't be bothered with the little foot pedal bins. It's just too much effort when you're taking off your makeup
You've got a cotton wall. It's just much easier to just drop it in an open bin like this. It sounds really lazy. But yeah
If anyone is like that, please let me know
Hopefully it's not just me signed in really lazy there this cost only one pound
The last bathroom item we bought was this
Mirror and we really needed this
And this was four pounds and i've been looking at buying a mirror for ages and just never got right into it
But the ones that I was looking at were about 10 pounds
So it's nothing special but it's just what you need for a bathroom mirror really. So yeah pleased with all of that
So moving along to our living room. We only bought one thing. Well, we bought three lots of the same thing which
is
a throw or three throws
So if you've got any children, you'll probably understand the pain of having a brand new city where we bought it in december
So it's quite new and not really been able to see it because we cover all the seats up with throws
But if you've got children or a baby like we've got it doesn't really mix with a new city
So yeah, we have to cover up with throws but these were really nice and they were only ten pounds each
So as I said, we've got three
So we will use two on the seti and then one on our armchair as well
Just so that all matches and yeah, I thought that was really good. Bargain actually, so ikea has so much kitchen stuff
So the first thing is this glass dish with a silicone lid
And I think they had a circle one of these and a bigger
square or a rectangle
And I just thought it was perfect for what I wanted which is going to be used for
Food for weaning so glass is ideal
And then what I thought was really really clever of ikea they had a variety of lids
So this is silicone
But there was I don't know if there's a glass lid but there was definitely a plastic one and a bamboo one
So for the same container you could have like a variety of lids for whatever you wanted to use it for
I actually think the lid was more expensive than the ball. I think that was
1.75 and the lid was 2.50
So I guess it's not cheap, but it's pretty heavy pretty thick and it was perfect for what I wanted
So I was happy with that. So the next thing we bought is this little bowl and this is for poached eggs
So when we do poached eggs, I know some people just tip like put the eggs straight in the saucepan
But we prefer to put in a bowl and then tip it in
Yeah, just easier that way but we've only got one little ball for that
So we needed a second one really and this was ideal
It was only 75p as you will probably know if you go to ikea
They've got loads and loads of fake and real plants and flowers. I didn't need anything this time
but I did get quite a lot of shots of that which I could insert here because they had
So much is so nice to look at but unfortunately we didn't really need anything
However, within that section I found this so it's obviously for spraying your plants and it was reduced
I think it was a pound originally and then I bought it for 75p
So it's just a little spray bottle
But having said that i'm not using it for plants i'm actually going to use it
um for like cleaning fluid because I thought it might be a good idea just to
Try and make my own like make it more natural, you know, you can use like lemon or you can use lavender and treat
And tea tree actually tea tree oil
Yeah, you can kind of make your own so i'm just gonna have a look and that's my plan anyway
But if not, I can use it to spray some cactus plants that i've got
Also related to the kitchen is this roll? I don't know what you call it. It's like
plastic but a bit bubbly and
I think ideally it's for using in your drawers as kind of drawer liners. We we probably should put in our drawers I guess
But what we use it for is putting on our trays
So we'll just cut a couple of squares of this and just put on our trays with the plates on top
So the plates don't slide by and this was four pounds
The last kitchen item that we bought
Well, two things were some cutlery trays and one was 12 pine and one was 13
I'm, not sure which but the first one is this one
and
So the obviously are a bit more expensive than just plastic ones that you can get. You can probably get
That for a couple of pines or something
but these will fit exactly into our drawers because we have an ikea kitchen and I think at the time
We must not have realized we could get these we've just got like rubbish plastic ones at the moment
But these will fit exactly and so it won't waste any room in the drawers
So this will be used for like serving spoons and bread knives, you know, all those utensils. So there's that one
And so the other one that we bought looks like this
So it's obviously
forks spoons knives little spoons and then two other
Things for whatever else we want to put in there and yeah
I just think it actually looks and feels nicer and is nicer quality than plastic. It's a bit more expensive but
Hey, it'll do the job. So for our bedroom, we really wanted some bedside
Lamps we bought a few different things for our bedroom recently our new bed. Hopefully you like that
New headboard there. Uh, yeah, we really needed some new bedside lamps. So we've got these ones
I'm, just going to drag it over because we've already put it in place
And yeah, see if I can put on for you
And yes, it's just a silver like that silver base this little pool thing here with a white
Shade and it's just really simple
But quite effective so we bought two of those
And we thought those lamps were an absolute bargain because they were only 15 pounds each. So that's what it looks like in the box
And i'm sure that they used to do a smaller version. I'm sure they used to be quite a lot smaller than that because
These ones they're fairly big. They're quite large but for 15 pounds, yeah
I just thought that was such good value for money before I move on to the children's and the food things that we bought
The very last item for kind of us
Was this big storage box?
Yeah, it's quite a large one
And ikea do loads of storage boxes. I actually wanted some smaller ones to put in drawers
But I didn't really find exactly what I wanted and I thought to be fair. It's probably best
Going to somewhere like home bargains or poundland something like that because they do really really cheap ones nike is slightly
Dearer, I would say or especially for the small ones. I felt anyway, the box was for a pan and the lid was 150
So 5.50, which I think is pretty good actually
Okay
So moving on to the children's section
And i've never really spent much time in that section, obviously because i've never had children before I have an arthur
Although i've always had a look at the cuddly toys ikea
Have you probably know if you've been?
Have a really really nice selection and range of cutting animals like every time i've gone there and gone past
I've always had to like pick them up and have a little feel because they are really nice
And ikea do really nice children's furniture and all of that. So we had a good look, but we didn't buy
Too much in that section. But the first thing that we did buy were just a pack of two spoons and
I think they were called something like
Like one's meant to be for him to hold and one is for us to feed him with I think I I don't know
But yeah, as you can see like one is short and one is long and they were only one pound 25
They also had bibs and they had a beaker and they do sell suction balls because there was one up there
But they had sold out unfortunately. So they do do quite a lot of feeding things
So definitely check that out if your baby is coming on to being weaned soon
Then we bought two different rattles. So we bought this little giraffe and this ball I think one was 150 and one was 250
I think that was the more expensive one
Which you wouldn't think but I just thought arthur doesn't really have anything
Circular it doesn't have any kind of ball shape
Toys, so I thought that was quite cool and they're both really good really colorful good contrast, which obviously is really good for babies
And yeah, he liked those he was playing with that one in the queue. So I think they are a hit
And then I saw some really good wooden toys. But arthur again is a little bit young for a lot of them
But I do have my eye on a few for the future in a few months time, but the thing that we did buy
Is this shape sorter in the shape of a house?
And so it's wooden with just a plastic lid and then it's got shapes inside
And I was kind of thinking and hoping that these would be wooden. I think that would make it a bit nicer. But yeah this
Is fine though. He hasn't got anything like that again
It says it's suitable for six months plus so hopefully he will get on well with that one and it was eight pounds
Okay, so the very last things that we bought were from the food
Section and I love it and I bought my favorite favorite thing
which I actually spotted halfway around and I I don't know why I should have bought more than one packet, but it's
these cinnamon rolls and i've been having these for
Years and years, so i'm so glad that they still sell them. Hopefully ikea never stop selling them. Thank you
Uh, yeah, it's just little miniature cinnamon rolls, and they are so so nice
And there are only one pound 65 which is a total. Bargain. I feel I just
I really regret not buying more. But uh, hey hope we'll just have to go there again and buy some more
So anyway, that's the first food thing that we bought we did buy one savory thing which are the vegetables. They're the
Basically vegetarian alternative to meatballs and they do sell them in their restaurant as well
If you've ever had them, however, they were called something different this time. They're now called plant balls
So whether the recipe is slightly changed, I don't know so I don't know how they taste yet, but usually they taste really good
We've got the packet in the freezer so I can't show you but I think they're about three pounds or something like that
And yeah, they're really nice. We just use that
um with like a spaghetti bolognese type meal then we got two packets of
Sweets, these were one pound each. They're gelatin free so they are
Vegetarian and yeah not had these before but looking forward to trying them
And the very very final item of this ikea haul is some chocolate
Usually we buy like a big bar of this chocolate. It's diamondbar but didn't have it
But this looks to be exactly the same but it's just like smaller segments, I think
So we've been very good because as I said we went to ikea yesterday
And i've been dying to open up all of this, but I thought I would
not and show you first instead, so
I think i've done quite well on that score. But yeah, that is the last thing that we bought
So I hope you enjoyed seeing what we bought this time at ikea. It's quite a lot of things. I think it came to around
145 pounds for everything in total so we did spend quite a lot of money
But I think we did pretty well for what we got
If you enjoyed this haul then please let me know in the comments below as I said I am hoping to go to
b m or home bargains or a shop like that quite soon for some smaller storage things and
There's always loads to buy at those type of shops
So if you would like a haul from there then do please comment below and i'll be sure to do that
