I saw a meme recently that said something to the effect that in college you buy IKEA, when you get a job you buy West Elm and then in your 30’s you search Pinterest and you realize you could have hacked the IKEA to look like West Elm.  TRUTH! I love IKEA and if my husband was on board, we’d have a house furnished with IKEA.  I think the problem is he can’t see beyond the display.  He’s never attempted a DIY IKEA hack and seen the amazing results.

I have searched the blogosphere for the most brilliant DIY IKEA hack projects.  Sometimes it just takes a few coats of paint and some new hardware, but others are a little more complicated.
