Mid-Century Lack TV Hack

Materials: Lack TV stand, four mid-century legs, wall pop stickers (orange), plywood, foam board Description: I submitted the Fullen Bar hack a while ago, and since I am never satisfied with my living room, this week I decided to tackle my lack TV stand. I recently “inherited” some mid-century furniture legs which I used to replace the short, chunky lack legs. NEW LEGS – The lack TV stand particle board was not strong enough to hold the screws for the new legs so I had a half inch thick plywood board cut to 54″x18″. – I attached the legs to the corners of the board, making a bench. – I then attached the Lack TV stand to the plywood bench with three inch screws.

How can I use Thee, Expedit, Let Me Count the Ways…

Materials: Expedit TV Stand, Bjursta, 5″ corner braces, VESA swivel mounts, Custom Vinyl Subway Art Description: My apartment has a strange living area layout (almost pentagonal), and, being one to need my separate spaces, I wanted to create a conventional rectangular living room with a functional triangular office space. Ikea to the rescue! Given that my apartment is only 650 sq.ft and has a monstrous bedroom and walk-in closet, I needed multi-functional furniture.

Dra ut hyllan

Materials: Billy shelf (white), 1/2″ white particleboard Description: A few years ago, I bought my first condo, which had a loft floorplan. Most of the room was one big ground floor, with a small lofted bedroom and even smaller study area/second bedroom. As such, I promised myself that every piece of furniture in the living room would either (1) serve at least two purposes to reduce furniture clutter, or (2) act as storage. Thus I decided to transform my little Billy shelf into a new IKEA family member, which one of my coworkers dubbed “Dra ut hyllan” (apparently it means “pull out shelf). I call it a craft armoire, because it holds my sewing machine and my crafts.

Modern, Customizable Jewelry/Item Display/Organizer

Materials: Rationell Variera Pot Lid Organizer (only required item) Description: We looked at the Rationell Variera Pot Lid Organizer at IKEA and really fell in love with the steel pegs. My fiancee had been thinking about her not remembering every necklace, bracelet, set of earrings, etc that she has, so she decided it would be great if we could use those pegs to make a display for her jewelry. Since we’re always browsing the “as-is” section of the store for different items (I built a wonderful office table for two out of a headboard from there – maybe a future Ikea hack article?) we got a wonderful piece of wood there for $1 (I think it was a shelf or something like that). We went to Lowes and bought 14 screws that fit the pegs and were about 2 – 3 inches long (just make sure it goes completely through the thick part of the wood with more than enough for the pegs to grab onto on the other side and provide adequate support for whatever it is you are going to be displaying) and a drill bit that was a tad bit bigger than the screw (that way the screw will just fall into place, not actually screw into the wood)

Ein Kleine LACKtmusik

Materials: LACK TV bench, VIKA RORBY trestles Description: I own a digital piano but for a long time just had it sitting atop one of those flimsy x-shaped metal stands. This was problematic because my cats liked to jump up on top of it which was not good for the keys and also made me worried they’d knock it over. So I was looking for a sturdier solution with a top over the keyboard, but finding a piece of furniture long and narrow enough to accommodate a full 88-key digital piano was a problem

ALEX work table with flat files

Materials: 2 VIKA ALEX storage units ($50 each): 601.928.26; 1 ALEX flatfile drawer unit ($120): 401.962.41; 1 tabletop (I used VIKA BLECKET because of the sweet lightbox inlay – $100): 201.036.05; 2 sets CAPITA brackets ($15 each, $30 total): 400.511.96; 1 RATIONELL shelf (30×24, set of 2 for $16): 245.785.10 Description: We finished a basement renovation recently that yielded a small room that I could use for a design/music studio. The room is small (about 10'x10' with a 3' swath of space under stairs) and making the best possible use of the space is key – as is finding furniture that's a little undersized to keep from making the room feel cramped. A goal was also to give my girls a space where they could do art projects and leave them out to dry, or just have the freedom to leave the space a little messier than they could leave the dining room or kitchen counter.

Coffee Table Train Set

Materials: Liatorp Coffee Table Description: The hack includes the Liatorp coffee table with glass top and pull out drawer that was modified to include an N scale model train set. I didn’t like the white so I painted about 95% of it black. Four coats of satin black furniture paint to be exact. I left the shelf that the drawer slides on unpainted for two reasons
