Woman Upgrades IKEA Flower Box Into Cutest Little Ottoman

IKEA products are inexpensive, functional, and completely transferable. We have seen couples turn shelves in sliding doors for hidden secret rooms , turn large serving bowls into elegant side tables, and Ikea wooden kid's toys into magical plant stands.

IKEA certainly is not only a place to go and buy new furnishings for your new apartment, house, or condo on the cheap… it is also a place that home DIYers and crafters have obsessing over for styling their space DIY style. But why, one may ask, I mean everything comes pre-assembled ready to go as is. TBiut pre-assembled is exactly what makes them great for customizing. IKEA products act as the perfect “bones” for any homemade structure, being pretty basic and muted in colors, textures, and shapes, they are perfect for customizing.

We love seeing the creativity IKEA’s products can have for people to flip into unique, one-of-a-kind show-stoppers. Just as one woman has done as she crafted up her custom ottoman from an IKEA flower box, check it out below!

With a little stain and a darling pillow top, this woman made a super cute ottoman that looks so high-end! What a genius idea!

Our Favorite IKEA Items

IKEA’s showroom floor is filled with big eye-catching items, like chandeliers, rugs, bedding, and eccentric chairs. But sitting between all these larger items are bins that host some of the best goodies found in the entire store. Below we list a few of our favorite areas that you should be on the lookout for next time you make a trip to your local IKEA!

Cooking spoons: IKEA’s entire kitchen section is filled with the coolest gadgets, the most aesthetically pleasing dishware, and some pretty fantastic wooden cooking utensils. Perfect for the eco-mama, and cottage core lover alike, these wooden cooking tools are not only cute but very inexpensive.

Throws. Because the best way to dress up any boring couch is with a relaxed throw, maybe not one you would use, but one the couch would. Ikea has a great selection strewn about in their bedding section!
