When you live in a small space, you know that storage hooks can be a saving grace. They can add instant organization and storage space in the tightest of areas. And there’s a set of hooks available at IKEA right now for just $8 that are so cute and customizable, you’ll want to make them the star of your home.

“I just picked up these chair hooks from IKEA,” Instagram user Victoria said in a recent video. “They only come in black, and tip — they do not come with mounting hardware. So you will also need that. I just spray-painted them a couple colors to see what looked best and tried them out on my wall. And it’s so cute.”

Why You Should Snag IKEA’s CUTEST Wall Hooks

These are the FJANTIG hooks from IKEA, and they come in a set of three that Victoria used to add vertical storage to her wall. As she mentioned, they only come in black — but they’re super easy to customize. Just spray them with a primer coat first and then choose a color that best fits your aesthetic. 

You could also brush-paint these hooks if you want to add more decorative details, or you might even want to try painting them with wood-grain paint you have leftover from another project to give them a wood tone effect.

“These are so cute!!! Love the color you went for,” one person commented on Victoria’s post. Another added: “Why is that the cutest thing ever?”

The FJANTIG hooks are made from durable polypropylene and are best used for lightweight items like empty purses, scarves, or light jackets. While they’re currently gaining steam on social media, they’ve been available at IKEA for years — and have racked up so many five-star reviews. 

“I am obsessed with these chairs,” one IKEA shopper wrote. “They are beyond cute, and I am going to get two more sets [because] they are just that amazing.”

And someone else added, “I bought these over five years ago. I bought three sets and hung them on an entryway hallway. They are a great place to hang dog leashes, hats, like jackets, small purses, and when they’re bare, they’re charming to see.”

Give a blank wall both personality and purpose with the FJANTIG hooks from IKEA and customize them to fit your home perfectly. It’s a fun and affordable DIY project that will become an instant conversation starter.
