Six ways for you to Raya (your way) with IKEA!

Six ways for you to Raya (your way) with IKEA! | The upcoming Hari Raya gatherings may be smaller but, it should not dampen the festive spirits. Though plans may change, Raya will still be Raya! This year, IKEA is encouraging you to keep your spirits high and celebrate Raya, your way. 

Let’s take a look at six unique ways you can turn to IKEA to make the most of your Raya at home, all while navigating through uncertain plans.

1. A refreshing look to get you into the Raya mood

Giving your living room a new look does not have to cost much. Simple touches like cushions and rugs can work wonders. Not only do they add an extra layer of warmth and comfort, but pops of colours and patterns can also switch up the atmosphere for an exceptional touch of festivity. Regardless of how you are planning to celebrate the day, you can be sure that your home decor will always keep up with your plans. The SANELA cushions and VINDUM rugs are sure to do the trick this Raya!

2. Glam up as you take your Raya online

Raya does not always have to be a house full of people. For many, a virtual Raya celebration is on the cards. As you prepare to celebrate online, be sure to give your (virtual) Raya family photo an edge worth remembering. To create that perfect backdrop for your photos and video calls, add a dash of sparkle and extra glow with various types of lighting. From LEDFYR LED lights to the ENRUM lantern, you can sparkle up your Raya while brightening every picture-perfect corner of your home.

3. Lay out that scrumptious food with style!

Like all festivities in Malaysia, feasting is in the plans this Raya. From lontong to ketupat, lemang to rendang, we can all agree that the dinner table needs to be insta-worthy. Pay attention to the colour and style of your dinnerware as it is much more than just plates and bowls for serving food. The right dinnerware can complement your dishes while creating the right mood and expressing your personal style. Add some texture to the table with the IHÅLLIG placemat and dine in style with the DINERA dinner plate series but, whatever you choose, be sure to Raya it your way!

4. Having a flexible-festive space 

While the size of the upcoming Raya celebration is not determined just yet, it is good to have a flexible arrangement for your celebration at home. From creating more room in your living area to having extra seats at the dinner table, the MARIUS stool, EKEDALEN extendable table and even chairs for the little ones are a good start to keeping things festive and flexible. 

5. Cooking up the storm, your way

There is sure to be lots of action in the kitchen as families work together on their scrumptious recipes. Ensure your kitchen is well equipped with some heavy-duty cookware as the entire family gets into the festive spirit. As many cooks would agree, the right cookware can make your time in the kitchen easy! The IKEA 365+ cookware set and STORKOK ceramic pot are handy options that will fulfill some of your most important kitchen needs this Raya!

6. Serving comfort food and drinks for the family

Raya is in the air when those nibble-sized cookies and kuih-muih are in sight! While it may disappear into our tummies within the first few days, be sure you have enough to last the entire month. From London Almond cookies to Biskut Suji, Sarang Semut to Kuih Semprit, these delectable can be served using a chic serving stand. And when it comes to drinks, opt for a stylish yet portable beverage dispenser. Be it Sirap Bandung to Soya Cincau, it is perfect for any cold beverage of your choice.
