    I feel like this would be really good in a bigger bedroom as a replacement for The-Chair-of-Clothes-That-Are-Kinda-Clean-Still because you could hang up/fold things so they don't get so creased without putting them in with your perfectly clean clothes

    Great idea. One tip though: place a spacer between the doors before you drill the hinges in. Something about 1/16" - 1/8". This will ensure the doors are parallel, but also ensure the edges don't bump against each other when opening and closing them. You can see the door on the left move just a little when the door on the right is opened at 5:35.
    Great idea! I'm looking for ideas for Kallax doors.

    This is amazing because those shelves are perfect for records but I've always thought they were too modern looking for my tastes. This makes them give off those MCM vibes which I love!

  • @HannahHaphazard
    @HannahHaphazard 7 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Wow! I love this! I have one of those shelfs but it's 4 squares tall and two wide. I think I might add doors to it so I can hide my stuff for a sneaky way to make my room look more put together.

  • @notebookluvr
    @notebookluvr 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I just purchased some 3x3 cube storage from a different store and now i am seeing so many possibilities! I hate the limited space of the squares and prefer regular shelves because of that but now i realize i dont have to add all of the separations and can make shelves if i prefer! Thanks for the idea. I also love having doors because it helps keep everything much cleaner and dust free but that is a bit much for my skill level, although i have the tools. I am also going to add some small legs! So many great ideas from one video! Thanks for sharing!

    I feel like the Sorry Girls are my best friends and I just want to cheer them on. Look how talented they are. Look how cute they both look today. How perfect is Kelsey's blush and how effortless are Becky's curls. They make it so easy for us to follow by doing all the measuring for us so all we have to do is assemble. THANK YOU for this amazing FREE content. I'd watch a dairy sponsored vid any day as long as it came from these angels.

    Sorry Girls - You have made an excellent video. I appreciate the editing, which both kept the video moving forward in a logical order but also saves data for those of us viewing on mobile devices.
    You construction tips were spot on and include many tips other DIYers tend to leave out. Another really fine feature is your use of music. Too many TH-camrs are so intent on adding music that they cover the instructional dialogue. You didn't fall into that trap.
    The one suggestion I have for improvement is to include the Ikea model in the description as well as the measurements for the doors and hinge placement. Adding the Ikea model will make it easier for us to return to this video when we're ready to try it as well as providing you the opportunity to rank higher in search results.
    Keep up the good work because you are an excellent role model for other DIYers!👍
