Easy and inexpensive IKEA hacks

Don't you just love a good hack? I do too, especially if they are easy and inexpensive. Those two words combined are music to my ears when it comes to home decor. I did some internet research and found these great ideas that I'm sure you are going to LOVE. Sit back and relax as I present these gems to you.

1. Bedside table from an IKEA RAST drawer chest





2. Doll house made from an IKEA BASKA shelf unit





3. Magnetic toy car holder made from IKEA FINTORP magnetic knife rack





4. Book rack made from IKEA LIKSIDIG napkin holder*





5. Book shelves made from IKEA BEKVAM spice rack







6. Stylish dresser made from IKEA TARVA chest with drawers





7. Wrapping paper storage made from IKEA VARIERA plastic bag dispenser




*Does the IKEA napkin holder look familiar? I used it as a magazine holder in my bathroom makeover :)

  1. I really like the idea of repurposing the Ikea bag dispenser and the napkin holders. I was looking for something like this!
