Hackers Help: Seeking discontinued IKEA fabric

Dear Ikea Hackers community,

For several years, I have been trying to find a few meters or yards of a discontinued IKEA fabric that was sold here in the US sometime around 2010 or 2012.

It was one of several called “Kajsastina”, in dark grey with a large sunburst or dandelion design. (see picture below). It has been featured in at least one IKEA hack on this site.

IKEA items:
  • Kajsastina grey starburst fabric

I am hoping that somebody has some left over in a closet somewhere. If you have any leads, or have some of this discontinued IKEA fabric you are willing to sell, please email me at urchiken+fabric AT gmail DOT com.

Hi Wehaf

Good luck,

Jules

#1 Fabric sliding doors for BILLY bookcasefabric sliding doors

I have 2 BILLY bookcases for some years now. And I wanted to close them up but not with the classical doors (heavy, not nice and expensive) and more in line with my living room style. So I decided to hack fabric sliding doors for my BILLYs. See more of the fabric sliding doors.

#2 Fabric speaker doors for IKEA BESTÅ

I wanted an easy to make a solution that would conceal my hardware; surround receiver, DVD player, front center speaker consoles and paraphernalia.

In case I would come to own a front-firing sub (my current one is down-firing), I opted for a BESTÅ TV unit with 3 sections, so I would be able to conceal the sub also and still have space for the mentioned hardware.

Instead of installing active cooling behind glass panels and having the problem of having a visible front center surround speaker (and sub), I wanted a TV unit with speaker fabric doors.

Sublot used the discontinued IKEA fabric, SARALISA, IKEA fabric frame and a permanent marker to create a fabric and graffiti fusion wall art.

KALLAX desk ideas: Three ways to set up a workstation

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.

Easy and it works. ~ by Fabio Tudela #2 KALLAX standing desk I choose to stand at work because it makes me feel infinitely more productive.
