Ikea Hackers

Quote from jj12321 : Wow, I always assumed you were just sitting on milk crates. And your desk was a sheet of particle board that Mr SD dumpster dived for. Your office is actually a lot nicer than mine.

I always imagined they were using boxes of SD t-shirts for their desks and that's why SDers never got their tees. Of course that was before Schooby was hired on and them into shape.

For anyone who is considering a furniture purchase, Ikea is doing their Eat For Free! promotion again. I just posted it in HD. Spend $100 on Ikea furniture and your meal is free and they deduct the full amount of the receipt, not just your meal, so take friends and family with you.

I like this. I've been wanting a bench for the front hall that you could sit down on to take your shoes off (we wear slippers in the house) and store the shoes in the bench. All the benches like this that I've seen in stores and online are crazy expensive. The only thing I would do differently would be to use a brown/black finish bookcase and some fabric that coordinates with that color, since it's for the front hall, not a little girls room.

That same shelving unit looks really good as a media stand too.

Such a cute idea for a kids room and so easy to do.

Love this site, I have it on my tablet and read it at night. I use the Pulse app, and this is one of the news feeds. I see so many things I could use, but never would have the time to build them. Too much house stuff as it is.

nice, you should start a thread, show your apartment/crib
