It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

Never Would Have Thought This Ikea Bookshelf Could Be Hacked Into A Kitchen Island!

That kitchen island that you have been dying for is now within your reach…just one Ikea hack away, in fact!

This bookshelf is a very popular item at Ikea.  I have one in fact and it sits between my boys twin beds, double-tasking as a bookshelf and end table for each of their beds.  (Perhaps that’s a triple-task?)

I never saw a kitchen island in this piece though!

This is beautiful!  I am imagining you could even make the top of it bigger so that you could fit stools around it, right?

Do you have this bookshelf? What do use yours for?

  1. Nice, but I would make it larger by placing TWO bookshelves together and a larger “overhang” for stools…that’s the great part about DIY, yoy can custom stuff any way you like!

  2. Hey Greg Smith, your Maw needs this…just saying!!!

  3. Greg Smith I know but not exactly and you can make it Purty!!!!

    These cubbies are so useful everywhere !

  5. Would love this, only with top boards extended about six inches on both ends, use corbels for stability…put stools under each end for use as eating table!!
