IKEA's New $6 Holiday Gem Can Tie Together Your Holiday Decor In A Snap

If you haven't wrapped up your Christmas holiday decor shopping just yet, you might want to hold off just a little while longer until you can head over to your local IKEA. The multinational retailer just added a few new items to its VINTERFINT collection that can tie together your decor in a snap — literally. We're talking about the VINTERFINT Tree Ornament Set of eight red bows that attach with a galvanized steel clip (that's where the snap comes in). In a single pack of eight, you're getting two larger bows that measure 8 inches by 7.9 inches and six smaller bows that measure 3.5 inches by 3.1 inches. They're also made of 100% recycled paper, so if "environmentally friendly" was on your criteria list for holiday decorations, you can go ahead and check that off.

But the best part? IKEA's VINTERFINT set of eight red bows sells for just $6. While you can get a pack of the same quantity in velvet from Target, and those you can reuse year after year, it's the size of these VINTERFINT bows that really makes them a standout product. Not to mention, they're versatile, so you don't have to restrict them to your tree or wherever else you've planned to use them as decor. You can also use them to top off a very special gift for a very special someone. Because, honestly, paper bows versus the usual plastic ones gives your gift a major luxe upgrade. C'mon, we'll "show" you exactly how to use these.

IKEA's VINTERFINT set of eight red bows is perfect for your Christmas tree, if there's any space left, that is. They'll add a little more diversity to your tree if you've stuck with traditional round ornaments this year, and you don't even need that many. You can scatter them around the tree so each one feels exclusive to its own little spot. Or, to make them more of a focal point, use two packs.

These adorable red bows can also be used elsewhere, like to create your own Christmas bow garland or to spruce up your Christmas dining room decor. Simply clip them onto rolled napkins tucked neatly on a plate or inside a bowl. Or, turn them into place cards. Since they're paper, all you have to do is jot down each guest's name on the bow. If you're hosting Christmas dinner this year and want to make it feel a bit more special, this is a simple little detail that goes a long way.

But the options don't end there. If your living room is limited on floor space and you're opting for a wall Christmas tree this year, maybe using something like the IKEA VINTERFINT pine hooks, these bows will pair perfectly with it. And there's one more way to use the VINTERFINT bows this holiday season. If you're giving away something extra special, maybe planning to propose or surprising your child with a gift they've been anxiously waiting to receive (like a PS5), this bow would be the icing on the cake to top off the wrapping.
