7 Halloween Items at Ikea for $5 or Less You Can Use All Year

There are certain Halloween essentials Ikea shoppers can buy now that will have continued use throughout the rest of the year and save extra money. Better yet, since GOBankingRates steered clear of items with obvious Halloween designs, these items won’t look too out of place in your home or space.

Did we mention that all of these items cost $5 or less? Get ready to make an Ikea shopping list for these seven Halloween must-buys that can be used well after spooky season is over.

• Price: $3.99

These Höstagille scented tealights come with a nearly endless amount of wins that make them worth buying at Ikea. Each package includes 30 tealights with a burn time of 3.5 hours. Per tealight, this means Ikea shoppers only pay about 13 cents each. 

As for the scent, the Ikea website describes it as a sweet blend of vanilla and warm milk. Perfect for use throughout the autumn and winter months.

• Price: $4.99

With its black and white striped pattern, the Höstagille cushion cover looks spooktacular during Halloween and poolside chic in the summer months. 

At just under $5 each, this cushion cover may be used for year-round decorative use on sofas, armchairs and patio furniture. Please note that inner cushions are sold separately.

• Price: $3.99

We had to add the Kustfryr shopping bag to this list. This durable bag holds up to 19 gallons worth of essentials and comes with short and long handles for carrying ease.

Positive five-star reviews on the Ikea website highlight the shopping bag’s sturdiness, price tag and color. Reviewer Kate wrote, “I love packing winter gear in this bag and it holds it all! The orange color makes it hard to forget to grab when packing the car for an adventure!”

• Price: $4.99

An affordably priced throw blanket, like the Höstagille throw, will always get plenty of use throughout the year. 

Described by the Ikea website as “wonderfully warm and surprisingly light,” this throw is best used in a year-round setting to keep cozy during winter or curl up in for comfort on a rainy spring day.

• Price: $3.99

Once Halloween is over, this sleek Höstagille wine glass may still be brought out and used during dinner or at parties and get-togethers. You don’t even need to fill it with wine to enjoy it: just add your favorite beverage.

• Price: $2.99

This is our second candle inclusion in this roundup, but the Höstagille scented candle is designed a bit differently than the tealights. 

The difference starts with its scent, described as nature-inspired by Ikea with notes of sandalwood, patchouli and fir. This candle offers up a 17-hour burn time and looks great in any room. Add it to your home office or the living room or even give it as an inexpensive gift.

• Price: $1.99

At just under $2 each, we added the Höstagille tealight holder to this list thanks to its versatility. 

You can use it to hold and display lit tealights, or, as Ikea shopper Christine suggested in a five-star review, keep pencils and pens inside.
