Ikea Kallax
 
Anyone got/use anything from the Ikea Kallax collection?

I badly needed more storage for my bedroom for things like underwear and the mountains of toiletries we have that just never seem to fit into the storage we already have (Stuart is as bad as me tbh)

Anyway, I went to ikea today decided to go for the 4x4 Kallax unit, I'm going to customise it with led down lights and storage boxes in the colours that tie in with my decor, plus the normal white inserts. Can't wait til my rooms decorated now so I can get using it.

Anyone use any of the series around your house?

:hee:

I can't wait to start using it Ammi, I think I'm more interested in how much different inserts you have to choose from :laugh:

And yes they had quite a lot of Christmas stuff out in our store, they have some lovely bits and bobs and I could spend all day just looking at them all :flutter:

Josy I hate you I went on and found a load of stuff perfect for my room but they don't ship here :bawling:

Smithy 23-10-2015 09:29 PM

I love buying different products from Ikea and then putting them together to create my own little solutions. :love:

My bedroom is an awkward shape so I basically designed my own wardrobe from their parts.

I've got one!! I love it, I can keep things on display but also you can get add ons (drawers and stuff) that you can hide stuff away in, it's amazing :flutter:

I've got the 4x4 too, it's such a good size
I've got a different theme for each cube too! (or well I've tried to.. I got it the other week <3
The best thing is buying decor for it!

Have you seen the amount of 'Ikea Hacks' on the internet, especially pinterest? I end up spending hours looking through them.

I love mine :amazed: and yeah I like that you don't need to use up all the cubby holes and can keep some as shelves etc

I have 2 of the cupboard add ons, I'm only buying another 2 of those and then using storage boxes in the rest (and leaving some as shelves)

the 4x4 is only about £100 (I got mine on sale for £79) and then you buy the addons you want separately, the cupboard add ons are £9, the drawers are £17 and then the storage boxes are only £3.50!

You can also buy the unit that has addons already with it for around £150 I think..
