We get it, shopping at IKEA can be overwhelming. When it comes to everyone’s favorite Swedish superstore, you could always turn to their trusty bestsellers, but then you risk a cookie-cutter, Ivar-cabinet filled-living room that doesn’t leave much space for personality. And sure, you could always scroll through the seemingly endless options of hack-worthy projects, but if you don’t have a degree in DIY, they can seem daunting. Instead, we suggest you could look inward (er, upward?) and allow the stars to lead you towards totally personalized picks. That’s right, we’re talking astrology. Read on for which IKEA product you should buy, according to your zodiac sign, for a look that’s all you.

A fire sign through and through, you’re known for making design choices as bold as you are. Add a few funky pillows to this powder-coated piece (may we suggest contrasting cobalt?) and you have the perfect setup on which to dream up your latest project.

Fellow bulls can agree: A place to house your many self-care products (in an earth sign–friendly sage hue, no less) always tops your wish list. Store bulky items, like a hair dryer or extra towels, in the extra-deep bottom drawer, while the top two, with added dividers, are a dream come true for your 30-step skin-care routine.
