IKEA HACK: DIY Billy Bookcase Built-In Library Wall
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 06. 2024
- Today is the tutorial for my biggest IKEA hack ever: building my own library wall using IKEA Billy Bookcases! I was inspired by @themakerista on Instagram's gorgeous library wall. This project was so big, I had to call in reinforcements: my amazing handy dad whom you've seen in some of my other videos and my talented DIY content creator friend Krystle from @PerkinsOnParkway flew all the way out to Ohio from Dallas, TX to help me complete this project. It was our first time meeting in person, and I just absolutely adore her! Make sure you subscribe to her channel! Don't forget to subscribe to my channel as well and follow me on my other platforms!

I have to say, I NEVER comment on these, but this was not only a great project, but well and charmingly explained. And it gave me some dad goals with my daughter. Nice job.
Oh this warms my heart! Thank you so very much
your dad is amazing! so glad you treasure him, he is awesome.
He really is the best
Tip, when you put your backing board on, set it on reversed first, then mark your shelf, then flip it, and you've got a good guide to put your nails in.
This is amazing - totally want to recreate this whole thing for my new basement bar back, complete with sliding ladder to reach those expensive top shelf bottles lol ... thanks so much for detailing and sharing this out for everyone!
This is absolutely gorgeous! 💝 I think it was smart to incorporate the Billy bookshelves and further customize it. This looks like a library you see in manors and rich grand-daddy caves. I’ve been eyeing the Billy bookcases to customize, and now you’ve inspired me. It’s so awesome seeing women build affordable, yet expensive looking custom DIY projects. Good work!
Wow!! and even with the sliding ladder installed! This is so beautiful! great job and your dad is so awesome to fly all the way over to help you with this, go DAD!
This is a stunning Billy Bookcase hack! The crown molding and library ladder add to the charm and sophistication of the project. You and the "crew" really out did yourselves. Thanks for detailing it for all of us would be Billy Bookcase hackers!
Aww thank you
This is gorgeous! You literally get to be Belle from Beauty & The Beast, and I’m freaking jealous! I like how the paint gives the room a dark academia feel. This now needs to be a legit reading room with a wingback chair and everything!
Omg best compliment ever! Will be adding decor and furniture to the space soon!!!
STUNNING..I need to do this when my husband and I buy a house!
Yassss gal
Wow! That instantly makes your home look soooooooo rich! I love it so much. I need to use this for inspo for my living or dining room. Great job!
Awww thank you babe! I'm telling ya its the Railings paint color by Farrow and Ball its so rich
How has it never occurred to me to colour match a Farrow & Ball paint? Genius.
it's my fav life hack honestly
i have to say this is by far the best Billy Bookcase install i have ever seen. the supports you installed were sooo on point..love the look
Aww thanks you so much! That means a lot! We really tried to make it super structurally sound to last for years to come
Nice work! I’m one of “those” dads too so I appreciate this project even more.
Wow! That project turned out really really well. Thanks for the in depth walk through. I have been wanting to do something like this in my den for a bit now. Thanks for the inspiration !
This project was amazing, I have all Ikea furniture and of course the billy bookcases, thanks for this great idea. I was amazed and now need to embellish mine. 😍
yessss do it! I know there are many who don't like IKEA furniture, but it's accessible to many people price-wise, so I really love to do hacks when I can to show what's possible with their pieces
This is absolutely gorgeous and everything I've been looking for. I recently purchased my own home and wanted floor to ceiling sheling for my office. This video made it such a reality for me! Congratulations to the whole family! 🎉❤
Aww thank you!!!! Congrats on your new home!

Wow I’m so glad I discovered your channel. I have a huge library room in my house with four Billy book cases as well as 8 Kallax record shelf’s that I’ve been going crazy to figure out building a base so it’s not just on the floor. This has me understanding how to strengthen and get both of them up higher. Thanks so much y’all rock.I’m talking about expanding because I also need shelves for close to 1000 dvds, 1500 records and now even one more Billy totaling 5.
Love love love the library! And thank you for teaching us how to do it 🥰
What a beautiful vintage bookcase you have built here Peony and Honey. Just amazing work and results.
Aww thank you
This Transformation is wonderful!!! Beast to Beauty 🎉 Thank you so much, this was the Inspiration I need 😊 Big Merci from France 🤗
ABSOLUTELY Fabulous!!! Beautiful finish!
Its amazing. You change my mind about cheap looking Ikea furniture!!!!
Old dudes are always so proud lol I love this.
Totally loving it!! Great job! I'm hoping to make one in a couple weeks but using the window door options.
Doing this project right now and loving this video. Very useful. Thank you!
Great job Bart! Love your dedication. Excellent results.
You did an amazing job! This looks fantastic and is really inspiring. Great job and kudos to all of you!
I am so going to do something like this once I have a place I can settle down for the long term. It looks awesome.
Looks really good. You did a great job. I love seeing what people can do with these basic pieces of flat packed furniture.
Yesss it’s amazing what you can create with their basic framing!!! Thanks for the kind words
This is soooo well timed. We’ve had the bookcases sat waiting to be started for a couple of months as we are doing a fitted bookcase and no word of a lie we’re going to paint them railings to match our staircase 😂
Omg it was kismet! Railings is such a bomb color too! Good luck with your project!
Watching in uk this is absolutely stunning so well made. Im starting built in bookcases for my living room billy bookcase ones with glass doors on top panels on bottom and putting some pole wrap on them all black with gold hardwear. However ive never picked up a drill or any tool before but i like a challenge 😂
Great job, Erika (and team)! It's beautiful! ❤
Thank you Linda
I admire people who can visualize projects like this so much, I could build it but I'd never be able to come up with the plan myself
Funny I’m just the opposite I can dream it up but I can’t build it
great inspiration...omg love the space it creates!
I would fill every space with books, so pretty!
love the ladder too!
Thanks so much babe - i thought i had a lot of books but omg i need more. Lol
Wow this turned out amazing ! Time consuming for sure, but soooo worth it in the end !!!
Thank you so much Wendy
It is a beautiful result, now i want a ladder for my billy library as well
Wow such an incredible job , great content absolutely love what you have made very classy ....thank you 🇨🇦
Excellent work and very creative design!!. The color you selected really pops and brings the room to life. Great video and showing all the steps which is really helpful and inspirational!!...bravo and thanks for sharing!!!👏
Oh this looks AMAZING. I've been brainstorming and thinking of ways to create a bookshelf situation with a rolling ladder (because my gf has a ton of books and I just like the look of a case with a rolling ladder) and this will definitely give me some ideas.
Yesssss do it!!! Highly recommend the ladder kit i bought! It was pretty straightforward
That is one exquisite library
Thank you for sharing I especially like the color you chose.
I am planning on doing a home theater with cabinets underneath for storage space. And to hide the surround sound.
Bravo - it looks fantastic. I love builtins!
Looks great. A few things I would have done differently but everyone has an opinion. I would be proud to have this in my home.
I love the finished look! Well done❤
You guys did an amazing job! When I do this for my house I think that I am going to install library lights at the top of each book case. Hopefully I can find a tutorial as in depth as this one!
I was thinking the same thing. Definitely going to add some puck lights and modify shelf heights so that you have some taller “display” shelves
Beautiful! And I love the rolling ladder!
Thank you so much
I wanna do EXACTLY this! Thanks for sharing!
I just love that lamp!!!!
Gorgeous!
It looks really good. I would have just painted the wholes that way you can always adjust the shelving over time. Pretty cool idea
Honestly, you made this look so accessible. I've had plans for a library wall but was paralyzed on where to begin. I feel like I could totally do this!
You definitely could do this babe
Awesome, I loved the Tim, the tool man reference.
Love live love the break down of costs. Aaaand the build off course.
Price transparency is super important to me! Thanks for noticing gal
@@PeonyandHoney To me too!
That turned out absolutely perfect!
Absolutely beautiful!
thanks hun
Mmmmmm…..Me love bookcases! Good job 🥰
Thank ladies for an inspiration.
lol omg I love your dad. not only for all he did but he's hilarious for putting on the waist trainer/belt Idk if that was for support or a joke but it made me laugh so thank you, & amazing work
It’s his back brace lmaooooo
OBSESSED!!
I am grateful your dad taught you so you could teach all of us girlies who grew up with gypsy fathers.
Gorgeous...absolutely love it!
awww thank you
WOW! Gorgeous ❤
This is by far the best Ikea hack I've come across! I'm gonna copy your hack to the letter! Thank you so much for this; it really takes all the stress out of it for us 😉
aww thank you so much! good luck!!!!
Omg this looks stunning 🤩🤩🤩 wow! I really want to do this but I have got no one to help me and a strict budget so cannot buy the service…. Really have to learn how to do this myself
It’s very cool! I will try to make it for my home too. Thx a lot!!!
This is STUNNING!
Love everything you do! Great job!🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
Aww thanks Laura
✨Love you Tina!!
i love the finish on the paint,
Love love love this!!!!❤❤
This is beautiful.
Amazing project nice work. We love Ikea hacks!
WOW!!!! It looks absolutely beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Totally awesome!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This looks amazing!
Outstanding!
Stunning.
Looking to do something similar but with a quartz desk on the bottom with base cabinets. Hopefully it turns out looking this professional
This is amazing. I'm going to send this to my husband and FIL like this is what I want 😂
Incredible! I want to see the video of it after it's stylized!!
Thanks babe! That’s coming next week!
Looks AMAZING 🤍
Thank you so so much
Amazing absolutely gorgeous
looks very nice, well done.
Wow. Really cool. Nice jin
truly amazing!!!
Wow Erika! It looks amazing! I would totally recreate this ❤ it’s perfection!! IKEA should be sponsoring you lol 😂
Aww thanks!!!
czcams.com/users/shortsYkv7m6oA4g4?feature=share
Looks wonderful! Great job. :)
This is amazing! Nicely done ✅
Custom would cost so much more.
I have IKEA in mind for a credenza. I haven’t found any I like, and the cost is always outrageous!
You have given me great ideas.
I wonder that this much extra material, customization and woodworking you could have just built the bookcases too, there is very little that ikea shelf is doing lol :D
Gorgeous, love it.
Thanks so much
So good!
Great job! I'm having a chuckle at the happy family vibes between you guys as you carry out the project. My sis, dad and me would be at thermo nuclear level by 15 minutes in!
Hahaha my dad and i didn’t bicker until we were nearly done when we were both overtired lol
Hahaha my dad and i didn’t bicker until we were nearly done when we were both overtired lol
My dad also, is my go-to contractor/supervisor/tool rental. What would we do without them?!
Gotta love dads!!!
Lucky you.
@@lullabyandtales904 very blessed for sure
