You can’t correctly pronounce the name of a single piece of furniture, you’ve got a secret stash of those little hexagonal wrenches and thoughts of mini meatballs smothered in lingonberry sauce dance through your head.
It’s no secret, you’re an Ikea addict, and your home look something like a photo spread from the Swedish super-store’s catalogue. Even though you already marvel at the genius behind the Billy bookcase’s connectivity and the Besta storage combos, the brilliance of Ikea’s products doesn’t stop there.
Who knew so many already awesome Ikea products could morph into the coolest gear for kids for next to nix? #GAMECHANGER

As if turning a simple spice rack into a bookshelf wasn’t cool enough, On the Banks of Squaw Creek’s Ikea hack adds little Bekvam’s to the side of a dresser to make a cool kids’ combo!
[mc_block_title custom_title=”4. Toy Turnover”]
Got an Aneboda dresser (no longer available for sale) hanging around? Little Red Window’s hack takes the birch veneer version and transforms it into a kids’ play kitchen. This is seriously crafty and cuts the cost of a store-bought version by bushels!
[mc_block_title custom_title=”5. Step Up”]
This Little Street’s stepping stools are over-the-top adorable. With a pat of wallpaper, you too can take a plain Bekvam stool ($19.99) and turn it into a decorating dream.
[mc_block_title custom_title=”6. Â Art Display”]
Make your child’s room museum-worthy. Mommo’s imaginative art display is created with two packs of Losjon hangers ($9.99 for a 5 pack).

Just a Girl and Her Blog’s kids’ room hack defies gravity and makes use of metal and magnets. Even though Ikea’s Kungsfors knife rack ($19.99) is technically for kitchens, it can double as a toy keeper! For instance, holding trucks, trains, cars and other metal-made small toys off of the ground. Genius!
[mc_block_title custom_title=”8. Lego Raceway”]
Turn an inexpensive Lack table ($19.99) into a Lego play area and storage unit! Centsational Girl made this double-duty unit that lets you keep all of the teeny tiny pieces together while getting imaginative with play.

If you have a Besta shelf unit ($115), you’ve got a dollhouse! Alternatively, you could use the Eket shelf unit ($75) too. Let Kids Create transformed the Ikea storage solution into a fab place to play with pretend friends. It’s an Ikea hack, pint-sized real estate dream!
[mc_block_title custom_title=”10. Lego Playcube”]
Ikea Hackers is obviously packed with cool ways to use the Swedish stuff. This Lego play land is made with a 2×2 Kallax ($50) and a pinch of creativity. As a result, it’s one of the ultimate Ikea hacks for Lego lovers!
