The furniture store also announced that Ikea Family Members will receive a limited-edition birthday tote bag and 11,250 points for members who purchase a minimum of P5,000 on a single-receipt in store.

Speaking of bestsellers, out of the over 8,000 products available, the store revelead that its OFTAST 25cm plate has sold almost half a million pieces while its FRAKTA shopping bag has sold almost 700,000 pieces.

Ikea Pasay City's showrooms are now decorated with holiday accessories to keep up with the festive mood and as cheery design ideas since people have become more thoughtful about their dwelling spaces after long periods of staying in quarantine.

But it's not just home owners who are availing themselves of Ikea's merry ideas. Also designed wih the local lifestyle in mind, the global store has collaborated with creative entrepreneurs like Kape Tayo coffee shop and Juan and Pilar fashion and home store to show how little touches like accessories can spell a lot of difference already for any space.

In a world where borders are now blurred, thanks to the great digital plunge, Ikea has furniture and accessories that can be easily envisioned in one's local miliue, yet may actually trace its provenance from another, country. That "world" aesthetics — of being here and elsewhere — resonates the Ikea slogan, indeed, of 'creating a better everyday life for the many people."
