Love it or hate it, Summerween is here, and spooky season is not far behind. If store shelves are any indication, it’s time to start dreaming up costumes and decor! The kitchen is often somewhat overlooked for Halloween decor, but that’s all about to change with IKEA’s latest Halloween drop. IKEA’s fan-favorite KUSTFYR collection is back — and this latest iteration includes lots of everyday kitchen and dining essentials that are as frighteningly fun as they are functional.
If you’re looking for a cute and very budget-friendly way to instantly add some festive cheer to your kitchen, look no further. From black cat mugs to this adorable ghost jar, I’m tempted to just add everything to my cart. There’s plenty of decor for the rest of the house, too: I’m obsessed with this cozy ghostly throw and these creepy-crawly candleholders. But I love that the kitchenware makes cooking feel festive. And, of course, if you’re hosting, the servingware is to die for! The best part of the collection as a whole is that many pieces are actually cute enough to haunt your home well beyond Halloween.
What Is the KUSTFYR Dish Towel
The KUSTFYR dish towel duo is one of my favorite pieces of the collection. The pair of pure cotton dish towels — one adorned with a friendly ghost and the other with a spider web pattern — costs just under $6. With their simple designs and monochromatic color scheme, they’ll fit right into any style of kitchen.
These little towels do double duty as adorable decorations that make even dishwashing feel festive. This is the kind of effortless seasonal swap that instantly makes your space feel Halloween-y without going full-on haunted house.
While you can get the KUSTFYR dish cloths online or in-store at IKEA, unless you’re buying a bunch of other things, too (no judgment), paying a $10 delivery fee or making a trip for a $5.99 item just doesn’t add up. Luckily though, Walmart has a similar set of monochrome cheerful ghost towels. They’re a little pricier, ringing in at $11.99 for the pair, but they do come with free delivery.
