 I'm coming at you with another IKEA hacks finally. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Hello guys Welcome back to my channel. It is Drew here from Lone Fox and today I have another IKEA hacks video for you I'm obsessed with IKEA and you guys really seem to like the IKEA hacks that I do on my channel And I love making the IKEA hacks one of my favorite things It's just knowing I'm doing one of these videos and going to IKEA and spending like in 18 hours there Then putting all the stuff into my car leaving it in my car for about a week So my car smells like Swedish meatballs and cardboard and IKEA just the scent of it, you know, it just has a specific smell and besides the point I'm doing an IKEA hacks video for you today. I'm going to be taking stuff from IKEA and just turning it into new things I'm really excited because today's video. I actually have some furniture. I have a basketball hoop, which yes I know kind of sounds crazy, but you guys are gonna see it's actually really chic and really fun I have a super fun hanging pendant like that looks so pretty and so like urban outfitters Anthropology inspired which I think it's going to be perfect for anyone that loves it kind of like bohemian urban space And I'm just excited for you guys to see this and if you have not already make sure to subscribe to my channel I post brand new videos every single week So you get your daily dose of DIY and if you'd like to you can also follow me on Lone Fox home on Instagram Or you can follow my personal Instagram where I share more of my fashion and that is I'm Drew Scott Which I'll put on the screen right here, but without further ado I think we should jump on into today's IKEA hacks because they're really good ones And I'm so excited for you guys to see them. So let's just get started All righty guys so kicking off this video with a super super simple project We're using the Trampa doormat and for additional supplies You're just going to be needing some black paint and a paintbrush of your choice and it's all going to be freehand It's super simple and easy and honestly guys you can find so many funny doormat ideas on Google if you type in doormat Ideas I guess you could say I just think that some of them are so cute So basically what I did was I use a paint brush and I use the width of the paint brush to actually do the Let it like the line blocking on each letter. So I spelled out the word hello in the bottom left hand corner So when someone goes up to your door, they're going to be greeted with the word hello, of course So I just use my black paint and with this kind of doormat texture I suggest kind of stippling the paint down into the actual mat because I find that it you get a better color payoff that way And I just simply went all the way around and then I let it dry And then I did one more coat of it on there just to really get it locked in there And as you can see I'm kind of pressing and stippling downwards to get that color payoff to be really dark and very opaque And then I flipped them at over and I'm gonna put goodbye on the opposite side that way when your guest leaves they're gonna read goodbye in their direction when they leave so it's kind of like a Double meaning doormat, I guess you could say I think it's really cute and fun So I did goodbye on this side again I free-handed it but if you want to you could get like letter stencils Or you can just print out the word and kind of just trace around it cut it out And have a little bit more of a simplistic look, but I just free-handed it and I think it turned out great This is probably one of my favorite projects in the video for sure And I'm using the Stockholm 2017 tray, which is actually currently on sale at Ikea for 2499 But I did have one in my own collection, so I just pulled that one out and used it I'm also using three hairpin legs from Amazon and some strong bond adhesive Which I will link those below for you guys and all I started off by doing was flipping over my tray And I'm gonna be gluing down these hairpin legs in a kind of triangular shape And what I suggest doing is adding glue to the bottom side because essentially these are supposed to be screwed on to like your item But the tray is not that thick So I just decided to glue it down and then make sure that you add glue into those holes and kind of make sure it Overflows over the top, which is kind of gonna act as almost like a reinforcement for that leg to stay on there But this glue is super super strong bond. I actually buy that Michaels. It's like I live by this I use it all the time on my projects. I think it's amazing But just get it in those holes glue it down in all three sections And then I suggest just letting it dry overnight and then once you are completely done You have a perfect little side table or nightstand whatever you want to use this for it could even be a plant stand Now this is a little bit of a different project for my channel But I thought it was cute for like a boys room or something So I'm using the Lindronde circular object and whatever the name of this bag is and also for additional supplies Just some scissors and hot glue So I'm pulling out the Lindronde circular object and I'm constructing it You just have to twist it into the base and then once that is done I pulled apart my little market bags and these are just little mesh like market bags You can take with you I guess to like the farmers market or something and I'm actually cutting the whole net portion Off of the handle and we're gonna be using both of these so make sure to cut it really nice and cleanly So I just use my fabric scissors and I cut around to create this net and when you take it off It's actually a rectangle shape which is perfect because we're gonna be gluing the rectangle shape Around the base of the circle because we're gonna be creating a little like cute chic minimal basketball hoop And you're just gonna go around the outside edge of this and glue it down I just add like a little tack of glue at every intersection and then I glue the opposite intersection onto it It's pretty self-explanatory and I actually think I say self-explanatory so much I need to make merch that says it's pretty self-explanatory because it seems to be my favorite thing to say and you guys have been Suggesting that in the comment section, which I think is so funny And once it is completely attached I just glued the start and the finish kind of up towards the base of the basketball hoop And then what I did was I glued together the net so that it created a circle because at the moment It was kind of had an open back and you're just gonna glue the pieces together. It's really easy You're just gonna connect them up and you're going to basically stitch this back together And then what I did was I cut the little bottom portion off and I cut in between each of the little Like squares that it has on the net that way you have a clean edge And then lastly I used the handle portion because the net at the bottom just looked kind of unfinished so I used the handle handle portion kind of as a little bit of a Sealant I guess for the bottom or just to make it look a little bit cleaner So I just wrap that around the bottom portion cut off the excess and it just overall gave it a little bit more Of a finished look and then all you have to do is glue on a little string to hang it up And I suggest gluing this as high as you can that way it doesn't stick that far And saving my personal favorite project for last we are starting off with this woven snitted basket I think this is pretty new to IKS collection or not super new but definitely within the last year And I'm also using one of the Hema Hanging cords and for additional supplies you're gonna need wire cutters and some hemp cording as well So I'm starting off with my wire cutters and I'm basically gonna be cutting the handles off this basket You could leave them on if you wanted to but I really wanted it to have the appearance that this was created as a pendant light Shade and not a basket turned into a pendant light shade. So you just have to go across and cut these off I suggest wire cutters because they kind of a grip on to this caning a little bit easier And it just cuts it super simply and then all you have to do is just pull off all those pieces and kind of tuck up a Little bit. There are a couple of nails in there once you pull it off You have these handles and I actually kept these handles because I can definitely use these on future projects If I need handles somewhere, I mean just kind of recreate this sort of caning effect So I did the same thing on the opposite side by taking off the handles Once those handles were removed I flipped the basket over and we're gonna have to create a bit of an opening because these sections at The bottom are too close together to fit the cord through So all I did was I used my wire cutters to just cut in that downward motion Directly diagonal across from each other So I cut out two sections as you could see here cut out one and two and it's super simple to cut these out You're just creating a little bit of a larger gap Then I flipped it completely 180 and I did the opposite side as well by cutting out the inside section here Just to create an opening where we can put the cord. This is kind of what it looks like once those are done So this is the cord that we're using and I'm gonna feed it up through the bottom and up through the top I guess you could say and then once it's all the way up. I'm putting it back down We're wrapping this around the center section so that we can get the light really centered in there And I flipped it over in order just to tie it right at the base here And then I'm actually going to feed the cord back through so that you're able to hang it So you're gonna feed it back through so the cord is going through the top portion of the basket And then the light's gonna be in there and then the cord is on the top And I used a little bit of hemp cording up here just to kind of blend in and kind of camouflage With the actual basket and I just tied it and a couple of knots that way It stayed nice and secure up there and then I screwed an Edison bulb and you have a perfect little hanging pendant light Hacks for today I hope that you guys did enjoy them And I hope it gave you some inspiration of things you could do with your current items that you might have in your house You're just kind of over with because I know sometimes I buy things and then after like a year I'm just like what can I do with this? What can I reinvent it to me? I'm also gonna make sure to link everything that I did use in the description box below in case you do Want to take a look or purchase it for yourself and then of course all of the IKEA names and stuff was throughout the video So drop those down if you want to recreate some of these items, and I hope that you did enjoy I would love to know which was your favorite project Honestly, if I don't have a use for it right now, but it would be that pendant light I just absolutely love the way that turned out, but I actually do have a use for that side table I'm gonna put it right next to my bed a new nightstand.
