Give the Lack a bit of time


Materials: Lack side table

Description:
A clock, built from the top of the same table (Lack). Rough-grit sanding is necessary for the paint to stick. The back (which was the bottom side of the table) was routed out with a Dremel rotary tool and filled with clock parts purchased online.

Eye candy: An Ikea furnished home office


Description: There's no hack here. So, you don't need to go hunting for it. I just wanted to feature this classy home office and enjoy a little breather from hacking. All the furniture in the this office is from Ikea and paired beautifully with other accents. Love. I could work for hours in this space. ~ Jules

Funky Pax room divider


Materials: Pax

Description: I'm glad to show you my ikea hack! Mine it's a 42sqm room that I had to divide into a day and night zone without building any wall!


I decided to buy a huge Pax wardrobe and put it in the center of my room! I assembled a Pax component with a 90degrees rotation and left it without door: now it's my bookshelf!


Then I bought an Ikea cloth to cover the wardrobe back and my old grandparents wooden bedhead.

Jokkmokk angled vanity


Materials: Jokkmokk

Here's a link to the installation.
