20 best IKEA hacks on Instagram 2019

It’s been a while since I last did a round up of my favourite IKEA hacks on Instagram. And since then, the number of IKEA hacks on IG has grown leaps and bounds.

When I did a search, I found over 280,000 posts on #ikeahacks!

So, before the year ends, let’s dive in and check out some of the best IKEA hacks on Instagram.

20 best IKEA hacks on Instagram

#1 MALM reading nook

A cosy reading nook from 2 MALM dressers (though the caption mentions HEMNES), framed. It even has space behind the cabinets for storage.

Two #ikeahacks in one photo ☺ The reading nook and a bookshelf. The bench was made using two ikea dressers. We framed them for a built in look and pained them the same color as the wall. They weren’t quite deep enough so we added a storage compartment in the back – perfect for storing extra blankets and pillows. The bookshelf is made from 4 ikea book ledges and dowels. A favorite spot for both reading and play. Hope you’re having a good Monday 🤗. . . #ikeahack #ikeahackers #ikeahacksforkids #diykids #julinspo #readingnook #windowseat #barnrumsinspo #barnrumsinspiration #kidsroom #kidsroomdecor #vintagekids #kidsroomideas #kidsroominspo #barnrumsinspo #barnrumsinredning #barnrum #timmervägg #vintagedecor #vintagekidsroom #vintagekidsrooms

#2 KALLAX kitchen island

A lovely farmhouse style kitchen island using the KALLAX shelving unit as the starting point.

#3 Breakfast bar with the FINNVARD trestle

Want a breakfast counter? This is probably the easiest way to set one up. A FINNVARD trestle and butcher block anchored to the wall. And that’s it!

#esstischinspo 💡Werbung wegen Firmennennung Einige hatten gefragt woher unser Esstisch sei.. also den Bock kann man einzeln bei @ikeadeutschland kaufen, das ist der selbe denn wir auch für unseren Waschtisch im Bad verwendet haben. Und die Tischplatte gibt es auch bei Ikea in der Küchenabteilung, es ist nämlich eine Arbeitsplatte.. die gleiche die wir auch in unserer Küche haben damit das alles zusammen passt 😄 super easy und teuer war das ganze auch nicht 😁 ich wünsche allen einen schönen Montag 😘 // dużo ludzi się pytało skąd nasz stół w jadalni, a więc jest z @ikeapolska nogę idzie kupić oddzielnie a płytę znajdziecie w kuchniach.. ponieważ jest do blat kuchenny, taki sam który my mamy w kuchni żeby stół pasował do naszej kuchni. 😃 za nie dużo pieniędzy a i tak się prezentuje ☺ życzę miłego poniedziałku 😘 #kitchen #kitchendesign #kitcheninspiration #kuchnia #kuchnie #ikeakitchen #ikea #ikeahacks #ikeaideas #farmhouse #farmhousestyle #farmhousedecor #farmhousekitchen #landhaus #landhausstil #landhausküche #esszimmer #esszimmerideen #interior #interiorinspo #homeinspiration #homeinspo #decoration #decorinspo #whiteinterior #whiteliving #whitedecor #vanlife #scandinavianhome

#4 Sewing room cutting table

Inspired by this sewing table hack, Johanna made her own version from 3 KALLAX units. The table provides lots of storage and a large surface for cutting. Perfect!

Watch her cutting table video below. Sewing room tour video here.

#5 The blue “yoga mat” bag

The FRAKTA trimmed to fit a rolled up yoga mat and protect it from the rain.

#6 TROFAST LEGO table

Always love a good IKEA-LEGO hack. This LEGO station is made from 2 TROFAST units back to back.

WERBUNG|| DIY-Legotisch 😁 Hey ihr Lieben 🥰 Wie versprochen zeige ich euch noch das Geschenk von uns für den großen Schlawiner zum 3. Geburtstag 🎁🎉 Da die letzten Monate das Büro vom Papa voll mit seinem alten Lego war und der Schlawiner nix anderes mehr spielen wollte, baute ich aus zwei Trofast Regalen einen Legotisch 😍 und damit er nicht durchgehend so viel Platz im #kinderzimmer einnimmt, habe ich ein paar Rollen drunter gebaut, Scharniere an den Regalen befestigt und ein Schließmechanismus 😁 nun kann man den Tisch aufklappen und ganz an die Wand fahren 😅 nicht nur ich bin begeistert 😍😂 denn Papa und der große Schlawiner sind nicht mehr aus dem Zimmer zu bekommen 😂😂😂 kurz vor knapp wurde ich noch von einer guten Freundin angefixt 😅 denn sie führte mich zu @limmaland und deren passenden Lego-Sortier-Sticker 😱😍 mein innerlicher Monk ist sowas von befriedigt 😅 #endlichordnung 😅 Wie gefällt euch der #legotisch? Habt ihr auch früher gerne mit #lego gespielt? 🥰 Wenn euch die Idee gefällt, dann freue ich mich über einem Herzchen, einem Kommentar und das Abspeichern/Teilen nicht vergessen 🥰 vielen lieben Dank 🥰 #birthday #partyplanner #kidsbirthday #kindergeburtstag #party #mamablogger #mamablogger_de #diy #surprise #mottoparty #boy #meingroßer #stolz #vorfreude #partydecoration #birthdaydesign #kidspartyideas #happybirthday #ikeahacks #3geburtstag #schnellundeinfach #spieltisch #present #geschenkideen #diebestenideenfuerkinder

#7 Vintage style TARVA

A row of TARVA 3-drawer dressers given the faux drawer treatment. Classic.

#8 HOVET industrial mirror

Industrial mirrors have pretty much exploded on my Instagram feed. Most are pretty expensive. Make one from the large HOVET mirror and save some $$.

#9 Dog bowls using the IVAR

Isn’t this cute? Food and water bowls for your dog using short IVAR posts and a shelf. Cut holes in the shelf to fit your dog bowls.

#10 Hot air balloon with REGOLIT

Add a little whimsy to your kids’ room. A REGOLIT lamp shade, small basket and stick on dots completes this hot air balloon.

#11 A classy mirror cube

This looks a million bucks but it’s cheaper than you think. You’ll need 2 packs of IKEA LOTS mirrors, 24 angle brackets, masking tape and an adhesive that fixes to both glass and metal. Join the mirrors together, et voilà!

[𝙸𝚔𝚎𝚊𝚑𝚊𝚌𝚔 𝚒𝚐𝚎𝚗] • Ja, nu äntligen tog jag tag i detta som jag tänkt göra länge! En spegelkub. För att göra en spegelkub behöver du: • 2 paket av Ikeas spegel ”Lots” • 24 st vinkeljärn • maskeringstejp och • lim som fäster mot både glas och metall Sen är det bara att köra! ________________________________________ #spegelkub #ikeahack #ikeahacks #ikeahacksdiy #diyikeahack #ikealots #ikealotsmirror #mitthem #inredning #interiordesign #interiorstyling #inredningsinspo #inredningsinspiration #inredningsdetaljer #interior #interior2you #interior_deluxe #interior_and_living #interiordecor #heminredning #heminspiration #heminredningsinspo #interior4inspo #inspotoyourhome #heminredningsdetaljer #homedetails #mynordicroom #nordichomes

#12 KURA playhouse

A lovely KURA playhouse. Click the arrows to see how happy she is to call this her big girl bed.

#13 Cigar Box Guitar

When I see absolutely “far out” hacks like this, it gets me very excited. It also reminds me of this one. I hope the BRONSSOPP guitar sounds good.

#14 Toy box crate with seat

What an idea! A toy box with storage and seating. So useful, and I don’t mean just for kids. I can think of a number of ways I can use this handy storage crate ottoman at home.

#15 Mobile phone loop

No instructions found. But it seems pretty straightforward. Snip the handle off the FRAKTA blue bag and glue the ends to inside of a phone case. Done!

#16 Release the KROKEN

If plain clear glass is boring, jazz up the KROKEN with art. These personalised water bottles make great gifts too.

#17 FROSTA chair

So simple but make a difference. Just take one more FROSTA seat and leg and attach the short curved section under the seat. Sadly, the FROSTA seems to be discontinued, which is a major bummer. It is definitely Number 1 on my “IKEA, Please Bring Back List“.

#18 LEGO brick cabinet

These LEGO brick cabinets are adorable. Cilla made them from EKET cubes and round discs. Catch her Stories at @designbycilla for the tutorial.

LEGOSHELFIE.

#19 Prehistoric DUKTIG

This Jurassic theme DUKTIG play kitchen is so rawrsome. Be sure to check out the entire room @sweet_home_of_mine. And this post for more DUKTIG hack inspo.

#20 Rustic coffee table

Probably the simplest hack ever. The SNIDAD basket (handles removed) topped with a round wood table and there you have it! A coffee table for your patio.

IKEA HACK -👉SWIPE ACROSS for more photos!! One of the hardest things to find in most stores is a natural coffee table. So again I got to thinking and looked around my house for some inspo!! I really do have way too many baskets and thought about a past hack of mine where I turned a laundry hamper upside down to make a side table. So I turned the Ikea Basket I had upside down but the handles were in the way! I loved the look of it and it was a decent size for a small coffee table – so off went the handles! Also sitting in the storage room was the $19 @kmartaus oak look Side Table which I hadn’t used yet! The round top matched the colouring of the basket beautifully so I popped it on top!! Shazam- Instant Coffee Table – and I needed something to go with my @kmartaus Timber Chairs- perfect!! So if you have the @kmartaus timber chairs and you want a little table to match – here’s one for you!!❤❤❤ #ikea #ikeahack #hacks #decorhacks #homehacks #homedecor #home #bargain #bargainshopper #bargainhunter #decorate #diy #diycoffeetable #natural #kmartaus #kmarthack #kmarthacks #homestyle #homeinspo #lookwhat_i_found

SKÅDIS: 5 ways to make the IKEA pegboard even better

IKEA introduced its own pegboard system, SKÅDIS, two years ago and I’d say it’s one of the best systems IKEA launched in recent years. I love how super customisable it is, with a growing range of accessories that help keep things organized. It works everywhere, in your wardrobe to bathroom . Probably anywhere you have a flat surface to hang it up. Photo: IKEA.com SKÅDIS pegboard system See it on IKEA.com But no matter how perfect a system, you can trust IKEA hackers to improve on the SKÅDIS. And they’ve settle these 5 issues you may have faced with the handy IKEA pegboard. Read on for their fixes. 5 IKEA SKÅDIS issues and fixes #1 Expensive hooks? You’ll need quite a number of hooks and accessories to fill up the SKÅDIS pegboard, and Kenyer was shocked at how quickly they all added up. So he figured he could make his own hooks to save cost.

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. That is all.  If you want to strengthen the structure you would need to drill a couple of holes in order to use the long middle shelf of the KALLAX unit as a back reinforcer. 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. Our department recently moved into a new building and we had the opportunity to design our own spaces. Items Used: VIKA AMON / TORNLIDEN table top x 2 (discontinued, replaced by LINNMON ) KALLAX 4 cube x 2 KALLAX drawer unit x 2 8 – 3″ locking casters / wheels 1 – 6′ zinc brace I had a few VIKA AMON tables ...

Amped up KURA bed with drawers and safety rail

We saw other KURA beds with storage drawers underneath on this site. So, we also wanted the same — to make space for LEGO s and wooden trains under the bed. We installed the additional headboard panels because the configuration of the room and the location of the windows in the room meant that we wanted the children’s heads on the right and the ladder on the left. The KURA plans did not seem to allow this configuration, though I have seen online that there are models of this bed from 2003 that allowed more options for setup. Additional safety features Safety rail panel for the lower KURA bed helps our two year old feel secure, as he just transitioned from a crib directly to this bunk. Likewise metal handles on the ladder. They added a lot of confidence for both the five-year-old and the two-year-old when climbing up to the top bunk. We are aware that the bunk is now even higher than before and both children are under 6. Use caution and common sense before making these modifi...
