Faux fretwork panel as large scale wall décor

Bet you never thought IKEA picture frames — sans pictures — could be wall décor? Carol and Mel did just that. They arranged a bunch of the affordable FISKBO picture frames into a fretwork panel for their wall.

IKEA Item:

FISKBO

Other Materials:

Lay out frames on a large space that you won’t need for a few days.

Arrange them into a formation that you like.

Follow instructions on back of adhesive tube and glue the frames together.

Pay attention to keeping frames straight and aligned with even spaces.

Then, let the glue cure thoroughly. We used some heavy books to keep the frames down.

Lastly, install your faux fretwork wall décor with the appropriate wall fixings.

#2 Turn cheap postcards into chic wall art

postcard wall art

Liskat bought some IKEA art cards that were perfect for the kitchen. She was looking for a way of displaying them so they looked a little less cookie-cutter and a little more high-end. A quick trip to the local DIY store provided all the necessary materials for this easy to assemble project. See the full tutorial.

#3 Floor panels for the wall

Wooden walls make a room feel homey. There’s no reason why floor panels can’t be placed on the wall. If the IKEA TUNDRA is unavailable in your country, any laminated flooring should do the trick. See more photos and steps.

#4 A magnetic cover up

Peter was tired of looking at the original brick fire place in his main living space. Inspiration struck and they clad the fireplace with SPONTAN magnetic boards. Get the details.

Three great ideas for a KALLAX desk . #1 Compact, minimalist desk for laptop I put together a KALLAX desk for my laptop for just under 25 euros. Just a KALLAX 2×2 is needed. No other materials required. IKEA item used: KALLAX 2 x 2 (77 x 77 cm) KALLAX 2×2 | IKEA.com All you need to do is assemble 3 of the pieces in a U shape.
