IKEA Black Friday Deals

Jenn and I are huge IKEA fans--we’ve actually furnished the better part of our apartment with their furniture and accessories! Their stuff stands the test of time, and you can really style it so many different ways because of the clean lines and simple colors. Now that we have a baby, we’re actually going to be looking into some new pieces to add to her room to store her toys and make the space more functional. Since our daughter is home with us all day and getting more and more mobile, we are hoping to trick out her play space with some really cool IKEA toys (we’re thinking about the folding gym mat and some new stuffies for her)! We’re also hoping to get Jenn some new storage for all her crafting supplies, since all her supplies got shuffled around to make room for the baby. Maybe we’ll get her a cabinet like this that she can fill with baskets.  

We’re going to be keeping an eye on IKEA Black Friday Deals this year for the best prices on some new items for our home. IKEA has really great prices already, but we are hoping they may have some discounts or promo codes on a couple things. We’re using Slickdeals to keep track of all our holiday shopping this year, since they have a good pulse on all the best deals across the internet. 

I know right now shopping is hard to do in person, but IKEA has such great quality pieces and they always have the measurements to all of their furniture on their site, so you can double and triple check the dimensions you need before you place your order! They are doing Click and Collect for curbside pickup, and they can ship directly to your home (though shipping might be delayed because of COVID).  Also, just a pro tip, if you plan on ordering a lot of IKEA furniture, one of the greatest things you can do is invest in an IKEA specific toolset. I think these make great stocking stuffers, and they’ll save your hand from cramping up from gripping that Allen wrench for so long. 

Do you have anything from IKEA for  your kiddos or your craft rooms that you absolutely love, and that we should keep an eye out for? Let us know so we can add it to our shopping list!
