  • Hey Craftydusters! I am excited to show you my IKEA kitchen island hack! In this video I am transforming an ikea kallax shelving unit into a DIY kitchen island on wheels. This IKEA kallax hack is perfect for small spaces and is easily transformed into a detachable kitchen island with a countertop (I'm using the IKEA Karlby worktop) and a set of wheels. IKEA furniture have always been easy to hack (and honestly, who doesn’t like a good IKEA hack?!) and why not turn the IKEA Kallax into an IKEA kitchen island table? I just love how this ikea kallax kitchen island hack turned out and it is ideal for tiny kitchens! What do you guys think?

    This would be a great breakfast bar for a1 room studio or a dorm. Put 2 or 3 bar stools n front of cart and you have a dining and breakfast table. Just park barcart n front of kitchen counter with sink and stove, to b able to walk between barcart and sink so you can turn around and chop up food and place food from stove and sink on to table while people on the other side, sitting on bar stools will be seeing the kitchen and you using refrigerator, stove and sink as you r washing food off and preparing meals and turning around to serve them sitting on the other side of the breakfast bar you made.

    • @Craftydust
      @Craftydust  Před 3 lety +1

      It holds great, most of the work is done by the wheel stoppers to be honest, the magnets are there to keep it aligned and once heavy items are placed on the island it's even more stable
