"Rapid fire things that I'm okay with you getting from IKEA as an interior designer," she said in the clip posted to social media.
First up was the Lanesun bookcase which is made from wood and black metal, she added the design was chic and looked way more high-end than it's price tag.
Next, she said she loved the photo frames, especial those with matting detail.
She was also a big fan of their rattan home which included storage baskets and magazine racks.
There was also a rattan bench with storage in the seating area that would look perfect at the end of a bed.
Next, Kris moved on to the kitchenware, she loved the white metal colander but admitted it was way too expensive at $18.
The interior designer pro also loved the plain Trampa door matts and said they were great to use as a DIY project if you want to personalise it.
She was also a big fan of the tea towel selection and the green-tinted glass cake stand called Vinterfint, which also looked much pricier than its $20 price tag.
