Leave it to the stylists at IKEA’s Livet Hemma to come up with the most brilliant IKEA hack to date. DIY IKEA Kitchen cabinet fronts turn wall panels! A little on the costly side perhaps if doing a large area, but still rather brilliant nonetheless. This would be a nice idea for a bed headboard idea or small entryway too.

For these projects they used the SÄVEDAL fronts, which don’t seem to be available here in North Amercia but the equivalent looks to be GRIMSLOV – which comes in a variety of sizes.

They suggest one can use the fronts as they are or paint them in any color. According to some DIY-ers, professional spray painting offers the best results, although painting with a brush or fine foam roller can work as well if sanded prior as an option.

We’re loving the grey and black. It definitely adds a custom look to a space and would work well in a small nook or wall section. We love the idea of using them like wainscotting too.

Let’s take a look!
