Besta floating hutch

Permalink 10:16:17 am, Categories: IKEA hacks  

I am a newbie hacker so I only deal with low level difficulty hacks. Last month, I finally decided what piece do I want to use in my dining room and did it.

Besta is often used for TV solution. But the depth is perfect for me. I has a wide rang of color to choose from. (I am going all the way black-brown in is dining room so) I picked up two 47X25 shelf units and bought 15 doors to save myself some money and some display spots. It gives me tons of storage space too which I love. It has the clean lines and modern feel to it which I also love. ;)

Not everyone has the luxury of owning a mud room. What do you do when you only have that two feet to play with. Here is an awesome idea from Idoia posted by IKEAHacker.

Sandnes shoe cabinet is only 6 3/4 deep so it’s ideal for any small space. It’s extremely functional because it that small space, you have space for shoe storage, you have some surface where you can drop your keys and phone. It also has this very slick looking coat rack which fits perfectly in the corner. Thus, you’ve got all your in and out needs covered. If there is a small mirror above the cabinet for a quick “doubt check” every morning, I will call it a perfection.

IKEA has many wonderful fabric that has some amazing price. If you have never discover their fabric section from textile department, you are missing out something. I want to show you another simple hack - No sew simple panel I did another day.

The fabric is on sale for 1.99 a yard. I got 3 yards and cut them down in the middle.
Since the fabric comes folded in the middle, you’ve got a line to follow so that’s not hard at all. Then I glued sides with liquid stitches. Wola, I’ve got myself some panels in just about half an hour. No sewing required! Love the bold color!
