My customized HEMNES small bathroom vanity

I used the TÖRNVIKEN sink, TOLKEN countertop, and HEMNES vanity to create a style more customized to my taste! I added hardware from H & M and painted the HEMNES blue.

Materials:

TÖRNVIKEN countertop sink
TOLKEN countertop
HEMNES vanity
Knobs from H&M
Chalk paint
Polycrylic

Since they are all just IKEA pieces put together, my husband just followed the assembly directions.

I didn’t care for the sinks they sold with the HEMNES vanity, so I used a sink and counter they advertised with other vanities.

Cut the TOLKEN countertop to size, with an overhang on the front and sides.

I painted the vanity with chalk paint, so no prep was required. And then finished it with two coats of Polycrylic to seal it.

Take a look at these ideas for a small bathroom vanity

A style change for the white HEMNES RÄTTVIKEN sink cabinet with 2 drawers. Olga added trim to the cabinet and splashed on a new coat of paint to match her New England style bathroom interior. See how it’s done.

For this project Clara used a RAST chest of drawers, a BLANDA BLANK salad bowl (28 cm) for the sink, LANSA handles, CAPITA legs, faucet and plumbing hardware. She extended the RAST chest, and made shelves for towels. See the tutorial.

Hackers Help: How to remake cam lock holes?

I want to put a 78.5” wide PAX configuration in a 77” space for a kids room . My plan is to eliminate the drawer on the right unit, then cut the shelves and rails to be 1.5” narrower. My question is, how do people attach two laminated pressboard IKEA pieces after they’ve cut off the cam lock holes? Related: See more Hackers Help questions and answers . Are they using drills bits and/or tiny hole saws to remake the cam lock holes? Or screws drilled in from the outside with wood glue? The outside pieces won’t be visible in my completed setup so I could go either way. I’m curious what other people are doing, either I haven’t seen this detail in past hacks or I haven’t been paying attention. ~ by Jenny *** Hi Jenny The best and tidiest method is to use the cut-off portion as a template to reproduce the same cam lock holes in the correct positions. The right sized drill bits and a Forstner bit should do the trick. A Forstner bit will drill a flat-bottomed hole (...
