IKEA



Cheap gift ideas, cheap decorations. Gotta love it! If you aren’t a regular IKEA shopper, you wouldn’t know that every year they have a “colour scheme” for their holiday items. One year it was blue/white/silver, the next year red/green/beige. This year they’ve done away with the holiday colour scheme so you can choose from items in red, green, white, gold, silver, bronze or blue.
Holiday Décor Items: 62pc (plastic) ornament set includes icicles, snowflakes and balls $14.99; glass birds 2/$9.99; large ball candles in gold or silver 4/$7.99; super soft guest towels red/white snowflake and white/navy snowflake $1.99 – these make great hostess gifts; children’s apron with snowflake print $4.99; paper cocktail napkins in gold/white or silver/white stripes as well as ones with, you guessed it, snowflakes on them in red, blue or green $1.99 for a package of 30.
They also have wrap, bags, cards, gift tags, ribbon and bows for low prices, that get even lower (50% off) during the Moonlight Madness event coming up in December (date not yet known).
Gift Ideas: terry slippers $3.99; milk frother $3; set of three bud vases $14.99; velvet heart shaped cushions $8.99 (purple or brown); frosted glass sectional dish $9.99; stuffed animals from $5.99-$19.99 (beavers, hippos, elephants, turtles, pandas, dragons, and animals you’ve never seen before); soft sided pirate treasure chest toy box with a velcro closure padlock $19.99; hobby horses $14.99; rubber ice cube trays – all sorts of shapes $1.99 – these also make good chocolate molds; numerous frames, farmable postcards, tealights and holders.
