Vinterfest at Ikea

Ikea has come out with a line of Christmas and winter-themed gifts to give out this festive season. Some of our favourites are their scented candles and a set of 25, advent calendar. You can use these as decorations for your tree or stuff with gifts like chocolates and ribbons to give kids.
