31 Easy IKEA hacks for your Kid’s room

Are you one of those people who can make anything? Maybe you’re the type of person who likes to spend weekends replacing your kitchen, building your own Olympic size swimming pool, or perhaps adding an entire wing to your house. You’re a person who can read blueprints, operate power tools, and wrestle lumber into place without breaking a sweat.

Most of us would rather get root canal without an anesthetic than do those kind of jobs. We don’t like to spend our time working with anything more complicated than a hammer or screwdriver. Or, more likely, Scotch tape and scissors.

What do you do, however, if you have brilliant ideas for how to make your children’s lives more fun by sprucing up their bedroom, say, but you don’t have the technical skill to pull that off? Do you spend a gazillion dollars to hire a contractor to do it? Do you tell your kids you’ll buy them a new video game if they’ll stop asking you to make changes in their living space?

Well, now there’s a third option — you can actually do it yourself.

If you’re one of those people who has a creative urge to build things for your kids, but is all thumbs when it comes to anything mechanical, you’re in luck. We have 31 easy hacks that will help you take some simple items from IKEA and convert them so they have multiple uses that are fun, creative, and practical. By following a few simple steps, you can find ways to create fun, interesting modifications to furniture and other everyday items.
