You know the Ikea Raskog trolley? This can also be useful in the garden or on the balcony. In fact, every single shelf can be transformed into a vegetable garden or even a maxi vase containing plants of all kinds, such as succulents.
Ikea outdoor trolley
An Ikea console in raw wood can turn into a practical outdoor trolley perfect for the garden. With the addition of a curtain in the lower part, a small island can be set up to prepare food and drinks.
Mini vegetable garden with Ikea bags
The Ikea Frakta bag is a great classic, a real icon and you can use it in a different way. Rather than buying pots or building small enclosures for your aromatic plants, we suggest you use the infamous blue plastic bags to create a small vegetable garden, which you can easily move as you see fit from one side to the other.
Plants in the Ikea cot
In the children’s toys section there is a doll bed. If you have it at home and you don’t know what to do with it, turn it into a small green space characterized by the flowers you like best. If you want to make it even more special, you could think of painting the structure in the color you prefer.
Shelf with outdoor plant
The Frosta stool is another great classic from the Ikea catalog that can become a shelf. Yes, that’s right, a few small carpentry work is enough to transform this piece into a wall accessory. Cut the seat in two, create a hole in which to insert a jar, and use one of the legs as a wall base.
The Nornas bench from Ikea can be transformed into something original and unique. It will not lose its original function, but to give it a refined and unique touch, we suggest you color it with the color that best suits your garden furniture.
Bench with Ikea chairs
A bench can be purchased or it can be made with classic Ikea chairs. In this case, just put two of them together, which you could also think of coloring as you see fit, and use a shelf as a seat that unites the two accessories. Add pillows to make it more comfortable.
Ikea ice shelf
The Tarva chest of drawers can be transformed into an outdoor piece of furniture and can hold ice. This is certainly one of the more complicated projects, because you will need to insert an ice tub and everything necessary inside the cabinet to ensure that the internal contents remain cool and isolated.
Ikea plant stools
Can an Ikea stool become a vase? Of course yes and it can become even more glamorous if colored sand can be inserted inside it, even better if white for an impeccable and minimal style.
Container garden table
The Lack coffee table, one of the best-selling Ikea products ever, can be transformed into an outdoor complement complete with a Drona container, capable of accommodating everything you need. In this case you can indulge yourself with colors and customize this element as you wish.
