Tea chest
Tea people know: storing your tea neatly can be a challenge. That's why we love this colourful tea chest from Sugar Bush Avenue so much. Taking an IKEA MÖPPE chest of drawers and adding a bright burst of colour to the front makes an ingenious solution to any tea storage problem.

Mid-century coffee table
It's rare you get something so classy from IKEA's seen-everywhere LACK coffee table, but blogger Triple Max Tons pulled it off. By removing the lower shelf and attaching wooden tapered legs, she created a mid-century classic that's entirely modern.

Play kitchen
IKEA's DUKTIG play kitchen is a godsend for parents with kitchen-oriented kids, but why not make it a little snazzier? Babykins did just that, adding subway tile, a metallic gold-painted faucet, mood lighting, and itty-bitty accessories to make the perfect grown-up kitchen for little ones.

White & brass dresser
Here's a simple one with huge impact: Blogger Sarah Sherman Samuel of Smitten Studio upgraded the plain-wood TARVA chest with a coat of white paint and some brass knobs. The end result? Stunning.

Mid-century bar cabinet
We're in love with Brittany Makes' beautiful bar cabinet, which uses brass knobs and faux bois gold foil wrapping paper to create a high-style (and easy to make!) addition to any living room.

Gold & marble coffee table
It's totally possible to have a sleek gold-and-glass coffee table (with a marble bottom!) without spending a fortune. Just look at The Hunted Interior for proof: She updated the VITTSJÖ nesting tables with gold spray paint and a marble slab to create a classic — but still inexpensive — look.

Patterned ottoman
Blogger Petite Party Studio took a rough find from IKEA's as-is section and made it shine. By adding some cheerful floral fabric, she made a boring ottoman so much more interesting.

Rustic card file drawers
Here's another MÖPPE update: The Painted Hive found their birch wood boring (rightfully so!), so she transformed them into these gorgeous, rustic card file drawers, complete with brass pulls. What a great place to store small items!

TV console
We're obsessed with this amazing makeover from The Desi Wonder Woman, who took an ugly black console and made it light and airy, with offset gold legs. It's an amazing makeover that proves how much difference a coat of white paint makes.
