Who doesn’t love IKEA?! I'm a huge fan of the Swedish brand’s simple, versatile pieces of furniture and affordable price points. But more often than not, a new or secondhand IKEA piece will need a little update to make it fit your home and style, whether that’s through a fresh lick of paint or some more intensive DIY. There are so many IKEA hacks online (not all good) so I asked a handful of interior stylists and designers about their favourite IKEA hack.
IKEA hacks are the various methods people come up with to transform their flatpack pieces of furniture into something more elevated and unique. They can range from easy DIY projects to more complex build-ins. ‘IKEA offers a wide selection of versatile pieces that can be easily transformed with a bit of creativity,’ says interior designer Julie Anne Burch. ‘The beauty of IKEA furniture is its adaptability – you can turn something mass-produced into a one-of-a-kind piece that reflects your personal style.’
