I found this amazing hack in a spanish blog and I just had to share it with you.

Actually it is more like a repurpose…

You just need to instal four Malm Nightstands (adapt the quantity to your needs) to create this working space with drawers and an open shelf to store books, magazines, etc.

Great solution for small spaces.

The result is really impressive. The numbers in the original clock are in english, so she decided to translate them into spanish using transparent stickers to put them on the tray. She kept the minute needle and made a custom needle for the hours using black colored cardboard.

Kate transformed a gorgeous tomato red BLANKÖ Stool into a fun woven jute side table.

When she saw the stool, she immediately felt inspired for spring, but felt the stool could use some organic detail, and something to break up all the red. She bought a spool of jute twine and a few hours later… voilà!

When Kate from katepruitt moved her bedroom to a different room in the house, she no longer had the space for her old beside tables. She wanted to use an old chair but didn’t have two important things: a place for private things and surface space.

She decided to work on the simple pine IVAR Chair to create a multi-purpose bedside table, complete with a drawer and swivel lamp.

Jordan from Oh Happy Day! turned the rustic ALVE Corner Workstation into a chic computer station. She only needed turquoise paint (actually a lot of paint since it is such a huge armoire) and some pretty brass ring pulls.

The result is just perfect! A great office space that can be completely shut away.

The problems began with the assembly, we even had to make our own holes to be able to place one of the lower shelves. And the back panel, made out of two horizontal pieces, didn’t fit right. It looked like one panel was to short from the right and other one to short from the left, and above all that you could totally see where they join. Really ugly!

We could have changed it for a new one, but the nearest Ikea is about 300 km, so the only solution was to hide it with wallpaper. We are really happy with the result, it makes our Ikea unit unique.

P.S.: I noticed that the BESTA TV Unit we bought is no longer available, but you can take a look at the rest of the BESTA Storage System.

Adam decided to renovate the basement and transform it into a multipurpose living and home office for the family.

He built the office into one of four Ikea PAX Wardrobes so he could hide it with beautiful tinted glass sliding doors. The screen sits on a glass shelf while the keyboard tray is a drawer usually used to store ties and belts.

Incredibly talented N+S from Design Curiosities created a modern bunny hutch for Eames, their little bunny, using a BESTA Shelf Unit.

They cut a hole out of the middle vertical piece so Eames can hop through, put a grate, created a door, elevated it with feet (also from Ikea) and tiled the bottom.

Daniel Saake made this incredible dodecahedron pendant lamp out of 12 Ikea’s inexpensive LAMPAN Lamps ($4.99 each). Whit this method, he has built a larger sphere up to 32 lamps! Incredible.
