She’s very particular about Storage for her culinary Equipment – in her IKEA Kitchen

NICKEBO and UPPLOV
Meet IKEA’s New Cabinet
Door Fronts

Step aside all-white IKEA kitchens; black is back with NICKEBO & UPPLOV Fronts! Last month, there was a huge sale on KUNGSBACKA and RINGHULT door and drawer fronts.

IKEA Kitchen Cabinet Supply Chain Crisis. What IKEA Cabinet Supply Chain Crisis??

Are you worried that supply chain issues will make beginning an IKEA kitchen project pointless? Not anymore! Nearly every industry was hit hard with supply chain issues during the COVID-19 pandemic—and IKEA was no exception.
