IKEA HACKS WORTH CHATTING ABOUT!
Author: Mercedes Papalia
There is no limit to how we can customize the furniture pieces in our homes with different colours, shapes, textures, and altered functionality. If you’re looking for a simple DIY transformation that suits your interior style and personality without breaking the bank, this is for you.
We’ve assembled our top ten IKEA hacks that are on trend, simple to create, and visually stunning.
We’re in love with these little cane bookshelves. They’re easy to make, and bring an organic feel to any space. For bonus points we like to organize our books by color.
This billy bookcase makeover is seriously stunning. There isn’t a room in the house that wouldn’t look incredible with a piece like this. It’s sleek and classic, and the natural fibres of the material give a down to earth vibe. The best part, if you can believe this, it’s a project that requires no tools.
This whole bathroom renovation is stunning, but the pendant hack is clearly the focal point. Completely in love with this look, and the easy to follow tutorial.
4. ARCHED CANE WEBBING STORAGE CABINET
This IVAR cabinet went from basic to a full blown statement, real quick. It’s beautifully organized, stylish, and a one of a kind original piece.
5. WICKER LIGHT
We can’t get over how simple this one is, AND it’s serving up some serious boho vibes. The wicker trend is here to stay and we’re all for finding creative ways to add more of it into our homes.
We are obsessed with this trend. Tile grid everything, please and thank you! This tutorial uses a different IKEA table and white grout, which has opened up our creativity to endless color combinations and tile shapes that would make epic tables.
How have we not thought of this before? Super cute and so functional that it keeps your veggies fresh.
Simply brilliant.
We are all about using a set of lights to balance a space, but it takes some major design guts to have them in different colours, like this DIY by Ashley Rose.

9. SIDE TABLE MARBLE “BRASS” DIY
This super simple side table is giving us West Elm vibes and can be completed in under two hours.
We love everything about this photo, but the standing desk with tons of hidden storage is what home office dreams are made of.
BONUS MENTION Because We’RE BIAS…
10. DIY Apothecary Cabinet
We couldn’t do a piece on IKEA hacks and forget to mention the time DIY Danie hacked two IKEA dressers into a beautiful apothecary cabinet for $600! Are we still Obsessed? Of course we are.
