IKEA Hacks

I have always loved getting furniture at Ikea. When moving to my new apartment it was my first stop for new items! The problem became even worse when I discovered all the different things people were doing to enhance their low cost finds.

My first Ikea hacking attempt included an end table for $7.99, and hundreds of thumb tacks. The end result made me feel like I could take on my next project! This was my vanity/desk found here, and below.

I was getting slightly out of control finding ideas everywhere for future projects, but sadly ran out of space in my apartment. Here are some other "hacks" that won't break the bank:
1. A new bar cart from Style Me Pretty. 

2. Sputnik Chandelier from the Little Green Notebook.

3. Campaign chest from For Chic Sake.

4. Gold shelving unit, also from For Chic Sake.

5.Geometric desk from Matsutake.
