Redecorating your house can be very expensive, but there are a lot of stores offering quality pieces for cheap that can be altered to look amazing and one of a kind. I love that TikTok can show you a variety of ideas for everyone’s skill level. I tried to highlight the videos that do not require a lot of power tools, but if you are handy with a drill and a table saw, there are a lot of great ideas out there when it comes to TikTok Ikea hacks.
TikTok Ikea Hacks
IKEA Industrial Mirror Hack
Who would have ever thought a few cheap frames could make a mirrored wall piece? This looks great and you could easily hang these up with some Command Strips making the whole project tool-free (however I imagine a level would make it easier).
IKEA Malm drawers hack
This hack really makes childhood furniture appropriate for adulthood. A fresh coat of paint and some new drawer pulls completely change the look of these IKEA Malm draws.
IKEA Besta TV Unit Makeover
If your aren’t ready to commit to a full redo of your furniture, try adding some decorative elements. This video shows how sticky stencils can be added to the IKEA Besta TV unit to really elevate the piece. Gold detailing is everywhere right now, and this video illustrates how easy it is to bring some detailing to the furniture you already have. https://www.tiktok.com/@ayshas.home/video/6940954521434705157?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowbXcZ4eO%2FCwGmwnjZYeq6Qe2LouMLfevWX3TF%2FdH8bu%2BeFNGLycm4AI7k%2FnUKzW8yGgA%3D&checksum=2fb011cbaec5e3009713b019df96da1296904466498fc821e3e79e8687c796c6&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAz9MhzRl8gG8_YMsicz9vCVQZUn-3GZSNNvwUu82KfTCPMOIUsp-DDJ3i67EwcHjr&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6940954521434705157&share_link_id=490922DD-B0B1-404B-BE5A-DB9CFBF4C368&source=h5_m×tamp=1626632193&tt_from=copy&u_code=di3m6hb99ed1d9&user_id=6950717934521009158&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=copy&_r=1
IKEA Shelf hack
This TikTok demonstrates how a little bit of lighting really makes these IKEA shelves stand out and add some warmth. People also do this with the IKEA Kallax shelves.
IKEA Kallax shelf makeover
This project would require a little more skill with a screwdriver, but not much. I cannot believe how different the $50 Kallax shelf looks after attaching legs to them. Not only are you able to accessorize with hardware that matches your house but you also create additional storage under the shelves if needed. https://www.tiktok.com/foryou?_d=secCgYIASAHKAESMgowRO9AIdJWtwzVL61%2BUCUSPFJzG6UDrYEOToi7BKKNQi9rJyj9JVhHu7uRmO4DlvbAGgA%3D&checksum=9734ee0b5d8f75edbcba67eff2fb2d875e664a241362637b8e011e708e6a3a1b&language=en&preview_pb=0&sec_user_id=MS4wLjABAAAAz9MhzRl8gG8_YMsicz9vCVQZUn-3GZSNNvwUu82KfTCPMOIUsp-DDJ3i67EwcHjr&share_app_id=1233&share_item_id=6925248591502052614&share_link_id=37636DD2-BF63-426E-BC8E-4C870425E03E&source=h5_m×tamp=1626630561&tt_from=copy&u_code=di3m6hb99ed1d9&user_id=6950717934521009158&utm_campaign=client_share&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=copy&_r=1&is_copy_url=1&is_from_webapp=v1&item_id=6925248591502052614#/@j.dash.r/video/6925248591502052614
IKEA Flysta storage bins hack
This video truly blew my mind! I would have never thought about refacing baskets I already own, but I’m currently looking to change all of them. Let’s be honest, bins are great for hiding all the mess, and typically I settle for whatever I can find. This project entails a little more measuring but it’s a perfect rainy day project, and allows you to customize your bins.
