3 Cool DIYs from IKEA


I found a few IKEA DIY easter eggs last night as I perused their site.  Love when that happens don't you? Did you know there were such things there?  Maybe you did, but if you haven't (like me) I thought I'd share a few that struck a chord.


No. 1 - Dress up the MARIUS Stool
These stools are a steal at $7.99 (CAD) or $5.99 (US) - and check out the ideas they've got for them!  And super easy - just wrap (and then tie) some pretty fabric, yarn or my favourite, thick bakers twine through those handy holes and around the legs! Check out MARIUS.  Link to the idea here.



No. 2 - Mix Up the Storage
This is more of an idea but also a DIY in a sense.  But mixing up the storage to create a personal "look" is an easy way to stay organized and keeps everything you need in your workspace within arm's reach. Shown here: FÖRHÖJA $19.99 (CAD)and $14.99 (US) and ÄTRAN Lockable cabinet $29.99 (CAD & US).  Link to the idea here.



No. 3 - Decoupage a Table
This is the first one I found and loved what they did with this VIKA AMON table top $39 (CAD) for a teen's room.  Show off your favourite anime, band, or I'm thinking florals with a custom table top.  It takes scissors, glue, creativity and a whole lotta fun! Table legs VIKA LILLEBY $15 (CAD & US). Link to the idea here.

Those are just a few I came across last night but I'm sure there's a heap more. I've got a few scratched up LACK pieces that could use a bit of a facelift, so the decoupage could be perfect for them. Have you seen some worth mentioning?  I'd love to find more.
