How to transform Ikea furniture into luxury accessories? With Ikea Hackers you can without having to put your wallet back. On catalogs we often find ourselves admiring creations enriched with gold or brass details, which make the environment more beautiful, bright and refined, and others with marble shelves or other expensive materials. In fact, in the Ikea collection there is not all this, on the contrary there are simply basic pieces, often made of raw wood. Is it possible to give it new light? Yes, and in this article we want to help you transform Ikea furniture into luxury accessories.
Elegant kitchen trolley
Let’s start with the kitchen because in the Ikea catalog there are numerous trolleys that can do for us. There are no particularly elegant or refined proposals, yet in the collection there are some that are easy to rework. We chose a Ikea kitchen cart in raw wood that you can easily repaint with a black or dark gray paint and cover the top to obtain a refined marble effect.
Chic nightstand
A small chest of drawers it can also be very useful as bedside table as long as it is beautiful and stylish. Again we have chosen one from Ikea catalog in raw wood and with three drawers. Eliminate the knobs, so you don’t even have to drill, color the structure with a nuance that you particularly like and insert handles perhaps in gold and silver to obtain a sophisticated style.
Copper lamps
The steel lamps they are out of fashion and those in copper or bronze are increasingly in vogue. There is nothing easier than painting metal and in this case there are various Ikea hanging lamps that you can use as alternative lighting, perhaps for your kitchen island.
Refined armchairs
Let’s face it, the Ikea armchairs they are beautiful and comfortable but have nothing chic about them. Yet just a few details are enough to completely transform these upholstered items into style. Recreate a profile perhaps with some trimmings refined and insert sophisticated cushions to obtain an exclusive effect in your living room.
Living room bookcase
A simple shelf with doors is not one library but a series of shelves can be. In this case we suggest the series Borgsjo: combining the various elements to each other you get a wall equipped with doors inside which you can place everything you deem most appropriate without doing too much work.
Display shelf
We have already explained to you that coloring on metal is extremely simple. One shelf with glass shelves and iron structure black can totally change face with a little patience. Color the structure with gold paint, insert some valuable objects and that’s it.
