Hacked IKEA bookshelf


Materials: EXPEDIT Door Hacks

Description: We added some nice raw wood doors to our EXPEDIT bookshelves which we stained to match our furniture, allowing us to display/hide books and objects as we wish. We also hacked a smaller EXPEDIT for a vinyl listening station.

  2. Looks cool. Not sure if you have magnet catches or what. I would consider drilling a small hole and adding some small leather handles or even go as simple as some short leather string about the width of a shoelace with a knot tied in it for a drawer pull.

  5. I agree - a more in depth explanation would be better.

    That being said, really well executed - love it! (and love the idea of leather door pulls)

  8. Would be nice if you explained HOW you added the doors. Otherwise this article is useless...
