Going camping this summer? These are the 12 affordable IKEA buys you didn't know you needed
Roughing it done right
I'm a big fan of camping. My dad used to take me when I was little. I've done it at festivals and I've even done it in random fields (legally, of course). Over the years, I've gone from roughing it with just a sleeping bag and a prayer for good weather to cultivating a collection of essentials that make the adventure a little more comfortable.
And while IKEA doesn't have a dedicated camping range, as such, it's turned into one of my go-to places for grabbing gear. With a variety of outdoor furniture, accessories, and even apparel, it's a budget-friendly way to enjoy a summer of tents and backpacking.
IKEA has even launched the SOLUPPGÅNG range – an outdoor collection that "encourages everyone to enjoy nature without a threshold." A thoughtful musing, but what's even better is it's on an IKEA budget. Here are the 12 IKEA camping essentials I recommend.
