Materials: Malm Bed and Dresser Description: After being inspired by so many cool projects on this website, hoping my daughter would sleep in her own room, and deciding I didn’t want to pay $2500 for kids’ bunk beds I came up with a design to use used Malm items to make my kids a new bedroom set. This was a combination of three easy hacks and one harder one requiring actual building. I got two used Malm beds, and a used Malm dresser. I used the two headboards from the beds to make my toddler’s bed- simply replacing the footboard with the second headboard, so she couldn’t scoot off the bottom of the bed and under the bunk by accident. I used the rails and slats from the second bed on the upper bed that I built to match the Malm beds- the headboard, footboard, and stair wall are 2″ thick, and the headboard is the same height above the mattress as the Malm headboard.

Futon ready! Sofa again! Materials: Lilliberg 3 person sofa Description: I bought a Lilliberg 3 seater sofa frame by itself because it was on sale. I had an old metal futon that was falling apart so I used the hinges on the futon to turn the Lilliberg sofa into a Lilliberg futon. First I shortened the legs by a few inches because I like lower furniture but also the futon hinges would add a few inches to the height of the sofa. The futon back and bottom needed a wooden frame to be attached to the hinges.

Materials: MALM and Magasin
Description: Here are two of my Ikea hacks.
The first is a bed frame I made…
I recently moved from a house into a small apartment, and needed somewhere to store all of my things, but still wanted a clean, clutter-free look. Ikea had the answer. I simply found a chest of drawers that I liked from Ikea, and bought four of them – the MALM 3 drawer chest. I then built a simple bed frame to sit on top, and turned it into bed with 50 cubic feet of storage space underneath (including the drawers)!!
The frame wasn’t hard to build:
I measured a queen sized mattress, and cut large pieces of lumber to fit around that. Those exterior pieces of lumber were reinforced in the corners. Then I got smaller pieces of wood (2×2’s, I think) and attached them so they’d run along each inside edge of those exterior pieces. Then I placed 2×4’s on top of those runners, and they reached from one end of the frame to the other, acting as slats for the platform. Once the slats were in place, I just placed a large piece of chip board on top! I also added a couple other finishing touches, such as adding small pieces of wood to the inside edges of the chest of drawers, where I cut out a notch, which I used to hang a small curtain on a dowel to hide the spaces.
My second hack is a laptop stand…
This hack is extremely easy. I simply started with a Magasin wooden dish drainer from Ikea, and cut off the longer supporting legs on the “back” side. Then I attached it to a wall using Command 3M small wire hooks, and voila!! I used 5 of these strips because I wanted to be sure it would support the weight of my laptop. I really like the look of a floating laptop, and this dish drainer worked perfectly.
I can also remove the laptop stand from the wall completely if I wish, or fold it up completely. Or, I can fold the top portion up and use it to support a text book on the lower portion. Or finally, I place the laptop on the top portion, and either fold up the bottom portion, or use it to store my mouse, wireless keyboard, etc. Very versatile!

I think the idea of having an eco-friendly mattress is fantastic, and San Francisco-based Keetsa Mattress is quickly becoming one of the better known mattress providers whose focus is on sustainability, recyclability and the overall health aspect of mattresses by providing a low cost alternative. They’ve just opened a new store in Soho NYC, and I love the way that the mattresses are presented in their well-designed showroom.
