At IKEA, even the most practical items are approached with thoughtful design. Whether you're watering your indoor plants, styling your kitchen shelf, or adding charm to a window ledge, IKEA's range of watering cans and decorative jugs offers both form and function in equal measure.

One of the most striking designs is ÄRTBUSKE, a green watering can created by designer Bruno Adrien Aguirre. Its bold, sculptural form is inspired by the cactus, and it's more than just a watering can – it also works beautifully as a decorative vase. It's playful, modern, and an unexpected visual highlight in any room.
If you prefer something more traditional, IKEA also offers a retro-style pale green watering can with two handles. Its rounded, vintage shape and soft color make it ideal for those who love a nostalgic or country-inspired garden aesthetic.
For a more contemporary option, VATTENKRASSE is a true standout. Available in navy blue, grey, and off-white, it features a long spout for precise watering and a refined golden metal handle. Compact and stylish, it looks great in modern homes and is functional enough for everyday plant care.
A more neutral and clean option is SALLADSKÅL, a beige watering can with light wooden handles. Its clean lines and soft color palette make it a natural addition to Scandinavian interiors. Designed for both aesthetics and practicality, it's perfect for indoor plant lovers who appreciate subtle design.
Also worth highlighting is SOCKERÄRT, a cream-colored ceramic jug that blends seamlessly into both rustic and modern settings. IKEA lists it as both a jug and a vase, making it incredibly versatile. Whether you fill it with fresh flowers, dried branches, or leave it empty on a shelf, SOCKERÄRT adds timeless charm and character to your space.
When you step inside IKEA's wardrobe displays, one thing becomes clear: the PAX system is designed to give you structure and order. As you can see in this example, every shelf, drawer and rail has its place – making it easy to imagine how it would look in your own home.
The IKEA EKHOLMA sofa offers a relaxed and inviting look, perfect for anyone who wants a practical yet stylish seating solution. Shown here in the cover Hakebo dark grey, it has a versatile tone that blends seamlessly with both modern and traditional interiors. The fabric feels soft to the touch while still being durable enough for everyday use.
When space is limited, every detail matters. At IKEA Tempelhof in Berlin, Mauritz filmed a striking example of how a staircase can be combined with a kitchen to create both style and function.
Choosing between IKEA's BODBYN and STENSUND kitchen fronts can be surprisingly difficult. Both styles offer a timeless, traditional aesthetic with framed panel doors, soft colors, and matte finishes. But the differences in design detail, material, and overall feel can significantly impact the look and mood of your kitchen.
