Create a savannah themed room with SANDLÖPARE

As the days grow darker and colder outside your window, why not transform your children’s room into a warm and sunny savannah? With colourful textiles, cuddly soft toys and detailed illustrations by Anna Lagerström, the SANDLÖPARE collection brings you brown spots, black stripes and red suns. If you want to enhance the room even further, you can also bring the colours and shapes of the savannah onto your walls. Simply take a photo of one of the illustrations, project it on the wall, scale according to your liking and paint away.

For every soft toy you buy, IKEA donates €1

Fortunately, a lot of conservation efforts are being made to support the protection of birds and biodiversity in Ireland. That’s why, for every soft toy you buy between 13 October and 30 November, IKEA donates €1 to the non-profit foundation BirdWatch Ireland and their important work in protecting wild birds and their habitats.

Together we can make a difference.​

Wake up in the wild with playful bed linen

The bed linen in SANDLÖPARE come in three different patterns so that most children can find something to fit their personality. And with different motifs on each side of the duvet cover sets, they can easily switch style based on their mood.

Camouflage the bed with a savannah bed curtain

If you want to bring the savannah home with just one piece, the KURA bed curtain with animal print is the thing to get. These three panelled curtains made to fit the KURA bed, works no matter what position the bed is in and quickly transforms your bed into an animal kingdom. Hide behind the curtain when playing hide-and-seek or play the sounds of the lion, monkey, ostrich and cheetah to see which child can stick their hand out of the corresponding hole first!

Storage can feel like a boring necessity for any children’s room. But it doesn’t have to be. With the SANDLÖPARE storage trunk and bags, the tidying up becomes part of the game. The lions are coming! Make sure to hide all the animals in a safe place.
