Where to Find IKEA Moppe

Of course, the first place is Ikea. However, due to its extreme popularity, it is often out of stock.

I suggest checking the Ikea website before heading there. Otherwise, you might end up making the trip only to find an empty display! I have been there done that!

You can also find Ikea Moppe on Amazon here, although it is a lot pricier.

I myself was a victim of it and after stalking he Ikea website for months, I finally gave in and got myself a Moppe wannabe.

So here is my wannabe Ikea Moppe hack – with chalk-style paint and silver mirror tape.Ikea Moppe Alternative painted with tape on table with pom poms
