Materials: Slatted bed frame, nails, hammer, thumbtacks, piece of old spandex tank top
Description: Convert part of an IKEA wooden bed frame into a behind-the-door jewelry organizer.
Simply hammer one nail on each slat in 2 or 3 parallel rows. Thumbtack a piece of stretchy cloth across the bottom (I cut an old tank top, but a screen would work well too). Hang necklaces on the nails, and jab earrings into the cloth. Add a row of nails across the bottom of the slats for storing extra-long necklaces. Mount on back of door.
Bonus: Find your bed frame base in a discard pile in the basement of your new apartment and this hack is completely free!

A nice reuse of something one might just throw out, but this is not a hack.
ReplyDeleteIkeahackers.net is a site about modifications on and REPURPOSING of Ikea products. This is taken straight from the about page of this site. The whole purpose of this site like so many others like it is to promote new ideas and or uses for items that we might not have thought of.
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that a lot of comments are less than constructive as of late. I get the feeling that a lot of people like myself have not posted hacks because of the comments that others have thrown around without keeping the core ideals of this site in mind.
Take this hack and use it to inspire yourself to "hack" something more to your liking.
GOOD JOB LYNDSEY. I'll be using what you've shared as a base for some other projects of my own.
