so hello everybody and thanks so much for coming back to the channel in
today's video I am super excited because we are
taking a trip to IKEA now I love IKEA because IKEA is really
geared around small living and living in an rv
is perfect to be able to get some great ideas from IKEA
on ways that you can effectively live small so today are going to give you
some great tips on things that you can get from IKEA
on the cheap that are going to make rv living
much much easier so make sure that you stay tuned and watch until the end
for some great hacks on RV life with IKEA
products

so one thing that I love for RV storage is if you have anything that messes
inside of each other so like this where it nests inside of
each other and it becomes very compact this is super important because you have
very limited space in your cabinets when it comes to rv
life so these types of storage containers when they nest inside of each
other it's really super nice to be able to use
for things like leftovers or the other thing that I like to do is
I like to do like cut up fruit or things like that
that then we can throw in our cooler for when we go
have like our day trips so these types of nesting containers are great you can
pick them up at IKEA for only 99 cents for three of them so it's a great buy as
well so another must-have that I love that
you can pick up from ikea it's a very basic
tool set now this particular tools that's got like a hammer
some pliers a little wrench a screwdriver that's got all of the
different bits that you might need and so this is a great just basic tool
set because you always want to have a set of tools
in your rv when you're traveling and this makes it nice
because it's in a container that snaps shut they're not going to be flying
everywhere so this is an absolute must-have that
you can pick up at your local IKEA
[Music playing]
another thing that I love from IKEA is storage bins
so we use these types of storage bins everywhere
I use these in the fridge I use the larger version of this in
cupboards you cannot have enough storage bins and that is because when you are on
the road and you've got things in cabinets or the refrigerator
contents do shift while you're driving and so I like to
actually put like a six pack of our sparkling water in this and
then stick it in the fridge it keeps it from rolling around while
we're having those travel days same with stuff that goes up in our
upper cabinets I have these bins here from IKEA all over our rig
because they make for great storage and organization when you're living in a
small space so these plastic bag dispensers can be absolutely
great so these just mount to the wall and then this comes up and you can put
all of your grocery bags and things like that
in there and one thing that I love about the IKEA stuff
or anything that mounts to the wall when you're living in an rv you have to
utilize every single bit of space that you have
available and you tend to have a lot of wall space available that's not always
utilized that's why in our rig we use a lot of command hooks anything that can
be mounted to the wall helps to get things up and off of the
floor and you can utilize that wall space so this is another
great thing from IKEA that you can use utilize that wall space
and put all of your plastic bags in here that you want to use for those smaller
trash cans
so I absolutely love these center stud containers now we're using
these right now in our bathroom where you get the bar
that mounts onto the wall and then you hang these on to that bar
and I'm gonna actually pick up some more today because I am going to
use these also on the wall with some command hooks to do some more things
with organization in our bedroom and then also we have another
like just sink in our bedroom area that uh right now I've kind of done a little
redneck modification where I'm using just
10 buckets that I picked up around easter time on command hooks
I'm going to switch out to these center stuff which I really like
it's plastic you can wash these and get them cleaned up if there's you know
dust or dirt or anything like that that accumulates over time
I'm going to put one up by my bed tonight
for my phone and be able to stick my apple watch in there to charge as well
at night so I love these they're only 99 cents
and then you can get the bar that they hang on if you want to hang it on the
wall or just use them with some command hooks
so a great way to again utilize that wall space in your
rv to be able to put things in and have
optimal storage the other reason I like this
is because in the bathroom instead of having something on the counter that
then you have to get off of the counter during travel days
this is already up it's off the counter it's secure during travel days it's not
going to go anywhere as you're going down the road
so I absolutely love these for RV storage organization
another thing I absolutely love from IKEA now I put these in several places
in our rv and that is this little snap together
trash can now you can put a like a grocery bag
in here paper or plastic to be able to put your trash in
and why I like this is because this can be amounted to
the wall so you're not utilizing the precious precious
little floor space that you have this goes directly onto the wall
now the other place that I am utilizing these right now
is in our rv bathroom and again it's because I don't want to lose the
little bit of floor space that we do have but I like to put
like cleaners in here so I have spray bottles of cleaners
I've got a canister of our like disinfectant wipes
that all fit in here very nicely and it's very well organized in the RV
so another product I absolutely love and I
have is one of these small cutting boards here from IKEA
now I like this because it's small it's compact I can just stick it right in the
cupboard this would also fit into a larger drawer
if you had a larger drawer I keep mine in an overhead cabinet
but a small compact cutting board is an absolute
must for small living and they do have them here
right at IKEA
so I'm gonna pick up a couple of these I just noticed that they're on sale
actually they're normally 2.99 and they're on
sale for two dollars and that is because I have found that these types of little
buckets work great with command hooks so I'm going to
put a command hook right here have this to be able to put stuff in
again think small space think utilize wall space the
more you can put on a wall the more space that you're going to have
available so I'm going to pick up a couple of
these because I know I can utilize these for more storage and
organization in our rig and these again are right here from IKEA
[Music playing]
okay so you can get this at IKEA for 7.99
we use for our shoes we use this for balls we use it for baseball cleats
because I play baseball really convenient put it under the
driver's seat in the rv
another thing that you can pick up at IKEA and I keep one of these
by our door and that is because the steps that go into our classe I like to
be able to sweep off so this I just keep right by the door
and then I can take this little broom and I can sweep off of the steps
nice little dustpan to be able to just keep things nice and
neat and tidy and so you can pick one of these up too
at your local IKEA when you decide to come pick up all
of your things for small living
