If you’re looking to give the furniture and decor in your home a makeover but don’t have the money to buy expensive items, DIY IKEA hacks can be a real lifesaver.

As you probably know, IKEA pieces can sometimes be some of the most affordable furniture you can buy. Unfortunately, they are also some of the most boring and plain looking furniture pieces you can buy.

But what I really love about IKEA items is the various ways you can tweak and hack them into beautiful and expensive looking furniture pieces.

Creative DIY IKEA Hacks You Need To Try

Many of the IKEA hacks you can find online are truly brilliant and creative. Sometimes you’ll end up with items that you won’t believe started out as cheap and simple looking IKEA pieces.

I’ve rounded up some of the best inexpensive and simple IKEA Hacks from around the web.

If you’d like to see the full tutorial for any of these IKEA hacks, please click on the link below each image and you’ll be taken to the relevant website.

DIY IKEA Bar Cart

How cute is this DIY IKEA bar cart? With just a few simple steps you can create one for yourself!

Color Dipped Stools

These inexpensive stools are such a great steal, perfect for a little paint “dip” that we’ve been seeing everywhere.

Seriously, a mere $19 at IKEA and these can be yours. Plunk them down in the kitchen or as a table for your littlest loves; they even work as a pretty potted plant holder.

By painting the legs in pastel hues perfect for the season, these DIY Dipped Stools will add a splash of Spring to your home.

Golden Striped Side Table

Bring an old table to life again with this gorgeous table hack. This kind of side table makeover could be done with any sort of table with a smooth, clean top.

DIY Farmhouse Coffee Table

Anyone else love the farmhouse look as much as I do? Then this one is for you!

If you don’t want to go to the expense of buying a new coffee table for this project, just use whatever old coffee table you have- the idea for the project is the same.

IKEA Kallax Sideboard

Love this IKEA Kallax hack! It might be a little more work to add the wooden legs but I love the clean and modern effect it gives.

Slatted Frame Storage Hack

You probably recognize the slatted bed base, since it’s usually located underneath a heavy mattress to add support.

But instead of hiding this item, which features pieces of pine wood connected by two pieces of cloth, you can transform it into a stylish wall hanger with the help of two wall hooks.

IKEA Stepstool Plant Stand

This is a simple and quick project, but adding that extra touch by painting the step stool makes all the difference. And it’s a great way to display your favorite indoor plants!

Glam up a dull chair by spray painting it gold and adding some faux fur!

DIY Golden Shelves

It’s no secret that gold is all the rage these days, which is why I’m particularly obsessed with this gilded DIY bookshelf.

Originally purchased at IKEA, the author has given this simple piece an immediate upgrade with a little gilded love, and some marble contact paper.

The best part? The entire thing can be done for $100 total.

RAST IKEA Dresser

Love this RAST IKEA hack. All you need are a few supplies to make over this cheap IKEA dresser into a sleek modern mid century dresser or night stand.

DIY Ottoman

Instead of spending over $400 for a cocktail ottoman of this size, you can create this gem for under $120!

IKEA Frosta Stool Hanging Shelf

Piles of paper, a stapler here, other loose papers there; you can’t work well at with a cluttered desk. Try this IKEA hack for creating extra storage space next to your work table.
