The more you know, the more you recognize (=shop!)
Summer is really here with longer daylights nowadays.
Today I am introducing some of my favorite IKEA items in my kitchen.
It is a simple door hanger.
IKEA products are simple and easy to assemble.
For a beautiful price of $3.99, I bought one to use in my kitchen cabinet too.
This storage box used to be in my daughter’s playroom to organize her toys.
Now I store all my tea towels, hand towels, aprons, etc. in my kitchen.
This hand towel, which costs $3.99 for 10 sheets, has a hanging loop so you can hang it anywhere.
It is a suitable size and dries quickly. It is good to use it in the kitchen as a hand towel.
I’ve been using this napkin holder for over 5 years now and I like its simple design.
It does not rust but keeps its shape beautifully so it is always on my dining table.
This is must-have item for clean and neat kitchen cabinets and drawers.
It’s just the right thickness and high quality for the price, so I always carried it with me when I moved a few times in the past.
With embossed design on the surface, it protects dinnerware from slipping.
I put it underneath the seasoning and oil bottles to protect my kitchen cabinet from spills and stains.
It is easy to wipe and clean even if you spill.
I don’t have to worry about scratches and damages anymore.
If I were to buy it again, this is it! Look no further! I’ve been using this drawer mat for more than 8 years without any regret.
There are two different sizes. Depending on the space you have, you can stack it one another (you can screw it securely).
This is the shelf I used in the kitchen pantry in my previous house.
It is still nice and handy in my current kitchen too.
I’ve been using it for over 5 years now, and it is still sturdy and great for organizing space in the kitchen.
Even in the fridge =)
It is a lightweight mat and its unique design makes it versatile.
This item is a popular product in which many people use to reduce plastic wrap and vinyl.
It covers and holds tightly, and keeps food fresh longer.
GRUNDVATTNET Mat is convenient to use when prepping the meal.
It is convenient to place it over the sink without taking up too much space.
Today’s menu is Janchi-Gooksoo (noodles).
It is originally designed as a deep fry skimmer, but I am using it as a strainer for anchovy broth.
The strainer I owned has a shorter handle and a hanging ear, which I found less convenient to scrap the side of the pot.
This measuring cup is so lightweight and versatile that I use it all the time.
Now let’s add stir-fried vegetables and egg garnish with a handy tong.
Cannot miss kimchi fried with sesame oil!
How versatile is it that it functions as a spoon rest too.
Add roasted seaweed on top.
Let’s finish with adding seasoning soy sauce I made.
My husband bought and used this ladle before we got married, and it has been over 10 years now lol.
As you can see, the long durability is the advantage of stainless steel.
Placemat can add a nice touch to a dining table, and this IKEA placemat is a perfect choice for the price of just $2.
This glass container is especially good for storing pickled vegetables or preserves.
GRUNDVATTNET mat is really versatile, isn’t it?
You may have seen this squeegee before as it is a very famous IKEA item.
You can wipe out the kitchen countertop so easily with this squeegee.
A cup of coffee would give me energy and refresh me.
Well… my little own break time surely doesn’t last long =P
Thanks to the coaster that can be used as a lid too. Please don’t let my coffee get cold!
