3 GREAT HACKS

With #ikeahack tagged over 600k times yearly, we receive a treasure trove of DIY ideas. Each week we share 3 great IKEA hacks shared with us that we think you’ll like (and we didn’t post). Here’s what caught our eye this week:

#1💎

Why we like it: Transforming the IKEA Billy shelf doors into a natural standout feature using jute is incredibly captivating. We appreciate the simplicity of the DIY project and the striking makeover it offers to a plain shelf. Nicely done!

#2💎

Why we like it: The repurposing of IKEA Lack shelves into stylish floating shelves demonstrates an innovative and budget-friendly approach to home decor. These 190cm shelves, once merely functional, are now a statement piece in this kitchen.

#3💎

Why we like it: The makeover of the compact hallway into a more appealing and functional space is quite remarkable. Incorporating an upcycled IKEA 'Stall' shoe cabinet made a significant difference. The cabinet’s clean design enhances the overall aesthetics, while its practical use tidies up the space.
