Ikea Hack Favorites

Oh it is Monday... again!  I actually had a pretty relaxing weekend with friends and family.  I spent some time on my couch, which never happens!  It felt so good.... but needless to say not a box was packed.  
Oh well... today is a new week!

Last Friday I met a client of mine at Ikea do pick up some shelving and storage for her office I am working on and there were a few items that caught my eye.  I then hopped online to pin them and then started looking at hacks.  I love me a good Ikea hack!  And low and behold I found a pin of 25 Ikea Hacks from Everything Easy!  


Click on over to see all of them... but here are some of my favorites!  I am sure I will be stealing every single one of these ideas!!


Clementine and Olive recreated this amazing amazing Clayton Grey Bungalow 5 side table from two lacks!  I have had this thought before... but I love the addition of the bottom shelf!


Matsutake took this sorry table that was in the garage and made into a very modern desk!


Canadian House and Home used simple trim moulding to embellish this ikea dresser.


The Smith Nest took 3 Expendit shelves and made a functional kitchen storage space and message center.


These Expendit shelves became a very modern entertainment credenza with the addition of some retro hairpin legs and some plexi glass.  {see post here}


And of course one of my personal favorites {and one I hope to complete for my formal dining room} is the sputnik chandelier from Jenny of Little Green Notebook.  I am so in LOVE!!

Have you completed any great Ikea hacks?  What are your favorites?  
The possibilities are just endless!

I love these, too. I tend to forget about doing stuff like this, but as soon as I see a good 'hack' I want to do another project! Have a good week Tiffany!

I'm loving these, and itching to give a few of them a go... but that sputnik chandie is by far at the top of the list!

Funny you mention this, I was actually on a blog that features ikea hacks earlier. I think that's the name of it too. Anyways I enjoy looking at what others have done. So inspiring!
