Everyone has a hobby that they love, whether it’s knitting, reading, or collecting postage stamps. Many hobbies have to do with the kitchen and have been especially embraced in recent years as more and more people work from home and reconnect with the culinary world. Sourdough starters became all the rage; canning became a new forefront for experimentation. Fortunately, there’s now an Ikea collection for this homemade resurgence, which celebrates the “grandma hobbies” that we’ve all come to know and love.

It’s also perfect for meal prepping and everyday food storage.

The new Ikea launch runs the gamut, but remains affordable, and feels in line with the rest of the brand’s minimalist, attainable offerings. Small lidded jars ($6.99 for 3) are perfect for storage; a 10-ounce ceramic crock ($9.99) can be used to hold sugar and jam, while the 34-ounce lidded jar can be used for juice and iced tea. And the collection’s dish towels ($5.99 for 2) and aprons ($9.99) will keep everything clean.

Dubbed Kössebär, the new collection is on sale now, with prices as low as just $5. There’s plenty here that makes for a lovely gift—or a gift to yourself, if you’ve been looking to get back in the kitchen.
