Re: TV units, while closed doors theoretically look cleaner, you prbably can't actually use them with the doors closed. If you have various media players, game consoles, your hifi setup or whatever, you want ventilation and access for wired or wireless controllers. So open doors probably end up looking messier than just open shelves.
I have one of those black wire "coffee tables", though not exactly a style Ikea currently sells. I use it as a side table. I LOVE it. It is placed between a chair and the sofa. The size is perfect, and it is well proportioned. It looks airy, and the black adds interest to the rest of the room which emphasizes light wood. It is easy to clean with the Swiffer. I would not use it with the canvas liner I see on some versions or store anything in it, but this table's a keeper!
I agree completely about the pendant lamps. The two that you would never buy or recommend look like huge beetles dangling over tables where people eat! If I went to a home for dinner and saw one of those over the table, I would stand up and hit it with my shoe!
That's a nice pendant lamp! I mention it in one of my videos where I talked about what's new at Ikea, and I really think it's a unique lamp 🙌 You cannot go wrong with natural materials 🥰
@@claremontes5452 It blocks the light going sideways, but plenty of light is let by the big openings at the bottom and at the top. If you go to Ikea, you can probably see how it shines ☺️💕
I love shopping at Ikea because IKEA is a big store having alots of products can let you shop for few hrs..and I ❤ watching your video so much l like the Art picture..🌹 U
Lol, not everyone has a “sleek” design aesthetic. Some of the more traditional looks would be totally appropriate in a cottage style home. That’s what’s great about Ikea - choice.
You are absolutely right! This is only my opinion and my own preferred design style, which is a bit minimalistic, and you are 100% right! Ikea has options for everyone - that's why I love it so much too 🥰
Mars is spoiled...and he deserves it! :). So glad he has you for a family...I totally do love these warnings about items that aren't worth the money from any store. And I also appreciate the suggestions for good replacements. You had some awesome suggestions. Thank you so much. take care.
Guilty as charged 😅 He is spoiled 🙌 But he really deserves it, he's been such a good boy. And thank you so much for your nice comment! I'm so happy you like my suggestions 🥰💕
Hello. Thank you for the videos . What about the Morabo sofa in brown gold leather ? I just bought it and would also buy a besta unit in oak frame and grey beige doors and a Tversted rug . The flooring is in dark brown ( but I do not want to change it ) and the walls are in beige green color . And cotton curtains on white .
Omg I'm so sorry 😞 I feel bad now.. I am sure it looks great in your space, and it's cozy af 🥰 Don't worry about my opinion, it changes from month to month anyway 💕
@@HomeByMon don't feel bad. It's okay if you don't like it 😂 I live in a 300 sqft single room apartment and the sofa is the best looking furniture I have and the rest of the furniture doesn't match each other except for my dining chairs (also from ikea) which has the same fabric and almost the same color as the sofa 😂
Hey, I'm sorry I'm replying a bit late. But yes, I have a few suggestions for you First, for a bedroom with low ceilings, I would go for the HÖLJES Pendant lamp or if the ceilings are even lower the NYMÅNE LED ceiling lamp. For a normal ceiling, I would go for something like the VINDÖGA Pendant lamp or a more budget option that also looks amazing the RISBYN Pendant lamp shade. For a dresser, I would definitely go for the MALM dresser, preferably in oak veneer, or with the NORDLI dresser. I especially like the anthracite one. Hope I helped 🥰
I totally agree on the frames! I did the same. By the way, we’re currently looking for pendant light that would look clean for our living room. Do you have any recommendations?
Depending on your decorating style, but some of my personal favorite classics, when it comes to Ikea ceiling lamps, would be DEJSA, SIMRISHAMN, RISBYN and maybe JAKOBSBYN 🥰
@@HomeByMon oh wow! I appreciate the reply 🤗 I actually initially considered DEJSA. I recently saw a interior decorator use MOJNA in one of her features on tiktok. What are your thoughts on these types of materials for clean and minimalistic style?
@@apaulm2082 No problem, I really enjoy helping people with their design choices, especially when it comes to my subscribers - I love it 🥰 Now about MOJNA, I don't really like the material of the lampshade. I like the design and concept of it, but there's something about the plastic that really throws me off 😅 However, that's just me. You can go for it! Also, check out my latest video, where I show the new IKEA retro inspired collection. Among other products, they are releasing a pendant lamp from the 70s. I think you'll love it! Check it out 🥰
@@HomeByMon oh myyy! The HAVSFJADER is very charming!!! Will seriously discuss this with wife because it might be more expensive when released here in Abu Dhabi. 😅 Thank you so much! New subscriber here 🤗
Yes, you are right about that.. a fix for that would be adding legs. Ikea sells furniture leggs too, so you can add some fun legs on those Eket cabinets ☺️

Hahahahaha 🤣 Yes!
Blasverk is great lamp currently have it swinging above my head in my home office

I'm so happy you like my videos and find my recommendations helpful 🥰
I'm coming from IKEA and I have already bought lamps and night tables and I'm glad I made the right choices 💅🏽 well I'm designer, maybe that helped.
Well good for you!! 🥰🫶
That sci-fi lamp is SO HARD TO DUST!!!!
I know, right? 😅
Greyhound in the back!
It's a whippet ☺️ basically the same thing, only smaller 🤣
Hi Mon! What do you think of the Sodakra pendant lamp?
That's a nice pendant lamp! I mention it in one of my videos where I talked about what's new at Ikea, and I really think it's a unique lamp 🙌 You cannot go wrong with natural materials 🥰
@@HomeByMon thanks Mon! I absolutely love the design, my only concern is light diffusion, is the material blocking out the light too much?
@@claremontes5452 It blocks the light going sideways, but plenty of light is let by the big openings at the bottom and at the top. If you go to Ikea, you can probably see how it shines ☺️💕
Haha the Death Star pendant lamp my daughter really, really wanted now hangs in the corner of my garage
Hahaha well there you go 🤣💕

do you have any advice on lamps or whatever lighting fixtures for a bedroom with and without low ceilings? Also dressers advice please, Ty

I just came across the Borgeby coffee table this past weekend and really like it but that price tag 😫😬
Oh I love that table 😍 But yeah, it is a bit pricey 😔
I agree completely
Yaaay 🥰 So happy to hear this!

Unfortunately, if you're a renter, those bedside tables just don't work.

I would buy the PS 2014 if I have a home theater and decorate it in the Star Wars theme. I saw it in ⚫️ on May 4thh and it's fantastic.
Yes, I agree 👍💯
concordo pratica in tutto 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
