great video Andrea! I didn't know about most of these pieces at IKEA. Now I need those parsons chairs. I wouldn't of minded if you talked about each piece even a little longer or maybe showed similar pieces with a high price point. I really could've listened to you longer. 😃
This is so helpful. Last week I came out from NYS to Massachusetts to visit my sister. I hadn’t been to IKEA in almost 10 years and really wanted to go to IKEA. Off we went to Stoughton. We were there about 5 hours! Wow, I was very impressed. We both picked up things we needed. There is so much to see! The prices are very realistic, reasonable. Yes, much has improved since many years ago. I really encourage people to go take a mini vacation to an IKEA store (if it is a distance away) if you find things you like you can have the items shipped home. It’s a win-win. Thank you so much.
thanks for the good video. We are going to purchase the hemnes cabinet. We just haven't decided on the brown/black with wood shelves, or the red with wood shelves. Going to look at those upholstered chairs. Thanks!
Well it has taken IKEA a good while but they are finally producing lines that appeal to someone over the age of 20. I really do like the new styles they’re getting into
I enjoyed this video. I love the way Ikea products are so versatile. Here in Western Australia, some new items take a while to get here. Thanks for the styling tips.
Have you looked at the bedding, NÄSSELKLOCKA is a really cute cottage pattern and KÄRRDUNÖRT. And they've got a few VILDPERSILJA pillows that have a cute print and IDALINNEA. I agree, it's not the majority but there are some really cute prints.
I have had many different styles in my homemaking life. My only advice is this: buy core pieces that you love and don't get rid of them. Just update colors and decor. So invest in hutch, dining room table, wood pieces for living room and good dressers and beds. I let so many great pieces go that I wish I had kept. I do still have my 1940's front room tables and some of my mom's pieces. Art and lamps and paint colors come and go.
Haha. I wish but no. I love to see their styling. I disagree on the comfort, but just like all manufacturers some pieces are more comfortable than others. The Uppland pieces are very comfortable and the parsons chairs are also great.
IKEA uses more than 1200 local furniture suppliers around the world. The five countries that supply most of the goods to IKEA are China, Poland, Italy, Germany and of course Sweden!
Maybe match your image samples to the words coming out of your mouth. Talking about picture frames and showing baskets? Talking about throws and pillows and showing a tv table? This might make your video seem a bit more professional.
I know these aren't new pieces. But I think there are lots of people who are interested in the cottage style in 2025. That's what is new. And lots of people don't think of IKEA and cottage together.
Thank you for presenting the information so clearly without a ton of talk and explanation. I really enjoyed this video and hope to see more soon.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes ❤ I am so tired of rambling on videos 😢.
I love ticking! These were some great pieces. Thank you for sharing your favorites! - Michelle
I love ticking too!

This is very helpful feedback. Thanks! I’m always worried it will be too boring
@ Not boring at all...especially for us design enthusiasts. I could listen to design talk all day long. I'm hooked on @Homeworthy because of you.😆
GREAT video. You got right to the point, and each choice was very interesting to learn about. Can’t wait to learn more from you.
Thanks! I never know if it’s too fast
Love this video! I’m helping a friend move to a new condo and combine antiques with more casual pieces. Thanks for the inspirations.
I hope your friend loves her new condo!
I like your video and the fact that you propose the cottage style!
Thanks

Mini vacation I love that. I’ve definitely been multiple days in a row and there’s something different every visit.
New to your channel and enjoyed this plethera of ideas fir a seemless mi and match. Well presented. I also found mentioning the prices very helpful! 🎉
Great tip!
Great information. Especially the company that can make slip covers. Our house is Cozy Cottage white and Ethan Allen 1970s 😮
This is not the only company. There are several others on Etsy. Lots of options.
Thank you Andrea 🙏
thanks for these good options from IKEA... I def. need to check out their accessories! 😊
So much good stuff if you’re lucky enough to go in person geographically
So many bits and bobs from my own home. I love ikeas cottage style stuff, but a few I didn’t know about in this video 😊
Glad you liked it!!
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
thanks for the good video.

The hemnes is a classic. I hope you love it!

Me too. But now even the young people are into antiques
Hi! Thanks! 🤗🥰
You’re welcome 😊
I enjoyed this video. I love the way Ikea products are so versatile. Here in Western Australia, some new items take a while to get here. Thanks for the styling tips.
Worth the wait for some things
Shop somewhere else.
A great video ...lovely presentation , really well explained ❤ newly subscribed ❤
Thanks and welcome
Thanks!
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it!
At my local IKEA, I am quite fond of looking in their "as is" room! Items returned, at marked down prices.
That’s a great way to snag a deal.
Is the jute rug indoor/ outdoor? Great video!!
Thanks! Jute CAN be used outside if it's not in a humid or moist area.
Great, thanks!
I’m glad you liked it!
Great vid! Sure wish there was an Ikea near me.
You can still order online!
🎉Interessante 😊
Can you paint Hemnes? Do you need to sand down etc etc?
Yes it is paintable. Look at Pinterest and type in hemnes Painted.
I was interested in This Rocksjon chair and went to IKEA website -- USA reviews were one star. Do you check this before suggesting the item?
Yes I’ve been to IKEA and sat in the chair myself. It isn’t a cuddle up chair like the Uppland but I really like them. So I disagree with the review
I wonder if they sell that dark green in paint.
You could get a paint match
Ikea used to do some lovely cottagey textiles but they seem to have gone a bit grey & geo lately.
Have you looked at the bedding, NÄSSELKLOCKA is a really cute cottage pattern and KÄRRDUNÖRT. And they've got a few VILDPERSILJA pillows that have a cute print and IDALINNEA. I agree, it's not the majority but there are some really cute prints.
How do you make this video & forget to mention the UPPLAND sofa? It is the most hard core Cottage Core thing in the WHOLE STORE!
I love the Uppland. You’re right.
I have had many different styles in my homemaking life. My only advice is this: buy core pieces that you love and don't get rid of them. Just update colors and decor. So invest in hutch, dining room table, wood pieces for living room and good dressers and beds. I let so many great pieces go that I wish I had kept. I do still have my 1940's front room tables and some of my mom's pieces. Art and lamps and paint colors come and go.
That is great advice! It's easy to get caught up in trends but classic pieces always stand the test of time.
Did ikea pay you to do this... their furniture is incredibly uncomfortable.
Haha. I wish but no. I love to see their styling. I disagree on the comfort, but just like all manufacturers some pieces are more comfortable than others. The Uppland pieces are very comfortable and the parsons chairs are also great.
IKEA is so fun
It's all made in China, though.
IKEA uses more than 1200 local furniture suppliers around the world. The five countries that supply most of the goods to IKEA are China, Poland, Italy, Germany and of course Sweden!
IKEA furniture is the most uncomfortable. Do not buy a sofa or chair. It's like sitting on a piece of wood or cardboard.
Have you tried the Uppland and Kivik lines? These are very comfortable. EKENÄSET and PERSBOL chairs are very comfortable.
Maybe match your image samples to the words coming out of your mouth. Talking about picture frames and showing baskets? Talking about throws and pillows and showing a tv table? This might make your video seem a bit more professional.
Good points. You’re right
Fun, useful video, even if a couple of pics didn’t match absolutely perfectly! Thanks for sharing!!
I'm sorry but who are YOU? Ikea has had these pieces FOR YEARS. There is no new Cottage trend. Crackin up.
I know these aren't new pieces. But I think there are lots of people who are interested in the cottage style in 2025. That's what is new. And lots of people don't think of IKEA and cottage together.
