Repurposing 101: Using Old Furniture and Fixtures You’ve Never Imagined (IKEA Hacks part 2)
There are just some things that the use of won’t last forever. Or something that you never would have thought served another purpose. Not even in a figment of imagination have it crossed our minds what genius these two IKEA Hacks turned out to be.
From Cot to COmpuTer
The IKEA GULLIVER has served a purpose in a family once. Helping raise a child or two, now comes a time to hack it and make something useful of it. It would be a mistake just to leave it in storage. So, one day a guy decided he needed a computer table. And instead of buying a new one, he made do with what he had.
To be able to make a table out of an old cot, he bought a LINNMON table top and hammer it right to the cot’s top. Et voila! You have a computer table. And lots of memories because of the cot.
An Inverted Spice Rack
We are all not oblivious to turning fixtures upside down to have a different shot at organizing. For example, somebody has decided not to put the BEKVAM spice rack against the wall but to organize the pantry. The purpose of this is to create layers within the shelves to make things you are looking for to be found faster. And if you are going the same result of stacking to make a more organized storage, might we suggest that getting the venerable BEKVAM stool is a must to also reach for them easily?
