Get this to warm up your next grocery shopping trip

Brilliant $0.99 shopping cart cup holder!

I came up with this IKEA hack and I get a ton of comments every time I pull it out. It’s pretty simple but effective.

Basically I never go anywhere without a hot beverage.

But when I go grocery shopping it is a real pain. For some reason, grocery shopping is a two handed sport.

So I thought there has got to be a product I can put into the buggy to hold my coffee while I shop.

I looked on Amazon and couldn’t find anything. Then it hit me……

I remembered seeing a SUNNERSTA container at IKEA and I thought it would be perfect. And it is!

I highly recommend keeping one (or two, in case your partner get jealous) in your car with your reusable bags.

Here is my shopping cart cup holder in action.

#1 Back of door makeup organizer

As she just moved in and did not yet have a makeup table, Ling decided to repurpose the space behind her wardrobe door. She positioned the SUNNERSTA rail and containers below the mirror to organize her makeup.

#2 Kitchen Door Storage

The goal was simple — to utilise as much space as possible in the cupboard under the sink. And make things they use a lot (dishwasher and washing tablets) more accessible. Ryan always liked solutions that were attached to the door, so here’s what he did to the kitchen cabinet door.

#3 Desk tidy

A simple space-saving desk tidy / organiser fitted along the side of the study table. All ready to fill with pens and pencils etc. Seen here are the BYGEL containers but the idea works just as well with the SUNNERSTA containers. See the desk tidy.

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 (...
