Most of us have some IKEA furniture in our home, loved for its low price point and simple, versatile design. And the BILLY bookcase is one of the Swedish brand’s all time bestsellers that can be found in many a UK home – mine included. That’s why IKEA BILLY bookcase hacks are so popular as they elevate the humble (and somewhat flimsy) bookcase into something your guests would never believe was once flatpack IKEA.
And who doesn’t love a clever IKEA hack? I sure do, as does the rest of the Ideal Home team. And while my IKEA BILLY bookcases are still waiting on the sidelines to be hacked into something bigger and better - likely filling my living room alcove with a built-in bookcase look matching the walls - I found some of the best ways one (or more) of these affordable bookcases can be utilised in an easy DIY project.
