Ikea Hack

​I've always made it clear how much I love a charity shop rummage, buying vintage, and finding new ways to reuse old furniture and interior accessories. I'm always on a budget. Even if I won the lottery I'd still be desperate for the buzz and satisfaction of finding a new charity shop gem, or making something mediocre that I bought for cheap look amazing with a few tweaks. 

I've been living with an ikea sideboard which I bought for an amazing £215 (it belongs to the ikea hemnes range - link here). I do love how traditional and bright it looks, I love the freshness of the white. However I've been feeling it does look a little mundane.. so thought I'd do a quick search on etsy for drawer knobs which I could replace the current ones with. 

I bought these amazing brass T bar knobs from PlankHardware - they have an amazing selection and the knobs were only £4.95 each! These ones were the WATT T-BAR Handle. 

Its amazing what a tiny change like this can make. I love how my sideboard looks now I've given it this tiny revamp and it instantly ties in with my coffee table and lamp which are also brass! And it took approx 10 mins to do. Win win all round.
