Took me a few weekends and way too many trips to the hardware store, but now people walk into my apartment and ask where I bought my shelving. Spoiler: nowhere. Here's everything I used so you can skip the frustration phase.
Every October my fireplace mantel looked like an afterthought — a couple of dollar-store pumpkins and a candle that smelled like a car freshener.

Option 3: load the car with IKEA blue bags, compression bags, etc. (As of summer 2023, Target is offering a one time 20% off special for a purchase made by someone with a college ID).
