HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE! I hope you're all having an amazing weekend! Which product do you NEED for your dorm room/small apartment/work from home space?!😍
Great video Kristen. I think we still have one of those laptop supports here❤️🤣
Awesome! Love the 💡… useful for a non college person too..lol
hopefully next time we can have a timestamp on the video. =)
Getting ready to send my son to college next year. (I’m starting to gather items for his dorm early.) Thanks for the great tips! Planning a trip to Ikea this weekend!
Not in college anymore but still gonna watch! ❤️
One does not simply go to Ikea with out a list. You will become overwhelmed with all the awesome things they have.
My college days are long gone, but I still plan to make some of these great purchases!
Very good ideas!! Thank you!!
Love the new intro! Great tips Kristen!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Omg I thought you said something else about that first product. I rewatched a few times and you said snacks. But my dirty mind heard something else
Kristen 👏 you so clever wow this is such cool ideas
Watching from Manila Philippines
Im finally moving on campus after a freshman year at home- covid 🙁 so I've had everything packed up for a year and Im getting my final list together.!
My grandson’s are in high school & middle school AND they have classes online. A lot of those ideas would be perfect for them!! I’ve tried helping out some like with a pr of nice wood TV trays for their laptops, another 3 shelf unit to hold supplies that I actually got from IKEA!! But I really like that laptop stand, ESPECIALLY the cup holder on it!! The 15 yr old drinks a LOT of water & that would be perfect for him!!
Loving the intro!
Awesome tips, love you Kristen!!
This video is perfect, came at a good time my daughter is leaving for university in a few weeks. Some of these items I can also use at home. Thank you ❤️
Love your intro, what is that song called?
i def prefer working at a table, i cant really work on the couch or wherever, it makes my back hurt
this was so useful!!! thank you!!!
The only thing I will say about this is the plates or dishware. If you're prone to dropping things or things falling over, get plastic plates instead. 2nd day I broke them when I got to college.
loving new intro!!!
Kristen, I love the new intro!
We moved countries… South Africa to UAE! NEVER had an IKEA in my life and we have kitted out a large amount of our new home from IKEA… now is the tricky part… all the non-IKEA finishes! 🙈 Taking it slow and loving the process! Thank you for all your suggestions in numerous videos and helping me balance IKEA and the rest! My biggest headache… pictures 🤦🏼♀️ but I’ll get there! 🤗
Love videos on how to optimize small spaces. IKEA always has great space saving items.
fortnite chungus epic pog!!!!!!
Chris and kris?
Is anyone else just watching this even though they aren’t in college yet?
This so such a coincidence
I’m in year 11 right now but when I go to college I want my major to be interior design🥲
Which college did u go to?

I am a desk person 🤣🤣🤣
Can you please do a Harry Potter Room makeover?
I just came across your videos and these ikea/ rental friendly are so satisfying, thank you
The "room divider" is such a good idea! Since the rent in Germany, especially in cities got crazy expensive, almost no one (I'm not talking about college students) can afford an at least 2 room rental apartment anymore. I like the idea that I could divide my sleeping space from the living room…provided, that there's enough space for a sofa AND a bed….
Thanks girl, wow this is amazing 💝🌠🌿🎉
Thank you for this great video 😄
Is the Vennesla floor mirror available in the U.S.? I can’t find it but it appears to be in your IKEA store.
This is such a great piece. We will use at the couch. It's very low to ground and have struggled to find something to slide under it. This is a terrific option. And we are seasoned home owners. Thx
The thing that you hang your string light at, what is that, was it also from IKEA? ¹⁹¹¹²¹
like the desk riser
Those utility carts are absolutely the best. I use it as a snack/coffee bar. It’s the best.
