The Adorable Mini IKEA Jars You’ll Want for Every Shelf in Your Fridge (They’re on Sale!)
The refrigerator clutter that mixed and matched containers creates can feel like a guaranteed obstacle when it comes to getting your kitchen organized. Differently-sized (and shaped) jars of jam, leftover salad dressing, butter, and whatever leftovers you may have can create a mess in your fridge. Smart storage solutions really make all the difference when it comes to consolidating fridge mess and creating oodles of space. All you need is strategy and a bit of optimism.
IKEA’s glass TRUMFISK jar is about as strategic as kitchen organizing gets — the jars are versatile, long lasting, and affordable at the new low price of $1.49. Talk about a glass-half-full situation!
The glass jar is a minimalist dream. With a classic paneled design and a rolled rim, it radiates refinement and caters to a variety of kitchen needs. The 10-ounce vessel can function as serveware (i.e., drinking glass, ice cream bowl), pantry storage (i.e., preserves, small snacks), and fridge storage (i.e., overnight oats, leftovers).
It’s microwave-safe, so you can get food from the fridge to the table in seconds while keeping dishes to a minimum. And, when paired with IKEA’s reusable silicone ÖVERMÄTT food covers, it’s a perfect container for meal prepping, picnicking, and eating on the go.
The jar racks up even more points as a transparent and durable storage tool. You can keep track of exactly what’s inside of each one, and enjoy frequent usage without worrying too much about its fragility. An online review describes the jar as “a solid, every day glass,” and another elaborates further, saying it’s “good as glass but with the carefree feeling of plastic.”
You can also find a creative use for the jar outside of the kitchen. Shoppers have shared they’ve used the TRUMFISK to hold screws as well as small candles. The clear aesthetic and functional design of the jar makes contents look more styled, even if they’re sitting out on a desk and holding something like pens or pins. As one customer sums up on the IKEA site, “The possibilities are endless.”
It only makes sense to get yourself a whole set of these jars to scatter and reuse around your home. I love using mine for beverages and always have one filled with water. If you’re looking for a larger size, you can snag the 14-ounce version that’s also a steal at $2. You can pick up your order in-store or have it delivered to your home.
