Two DIY IKEA Hacks: How to Make Furniture Look Custom
These two projects came to life out of a need for specific furniture pieces, using what I already had on hand, and sticking to a budget. Both of these DIYs are built around a plain Ikea piece (the IKEA Havsta cabinet). Spoiler alert: they turned out even better than I expected. And since so many of you loved them when I shared them on Instagram, I’m breaking down all the details in this post.
DIY Project: Building a Budget-Friendly Faux Fireplace
This is the first space you see when you walk into our home—and although it’s changed a lot over the past five years, it always felt like something was missing.
Adding the fireplace completely transformed the vibe of the room. It’s hard to believe it wasn’t always there! The brick brought in so much warmth and character, and having a proper focal point finally tied the living and dining areas together.

DIY Laundry Room Makeover (Part 2)
Welcome to the final part of our laundry space project! In our previous post, we shared the quick renovation we did when we first moved in back in 2020, along with the mistakes we made and noticed as we began using the space.

DIY Murphy Bed with custom built-ins
Let’s go back to 2022. We had a room next to the front door that we wanted to turn into a guest bedroom with space-saving furniture, but since we barely have guests, it mostly sat empty (or filled with boxes). The plan was to make the most of the space—using it as a guest room only when needed—and finally create a proper home office with a desk and everything. I love a good DIY home decor project, so I was up for the challenge of building one ourselves. I’ll be sharing everything we did in hopes of inspiring you to create your own small space solutions!
