This is great. I’m glad you posted this method without actual sanding 👍🏼👍🏼 gonna try this today!
The muted tones and the waves, amazing! Subscribed!
Thank you so much for this video! By far the most comprehensive video I’ve seen on painting laminate furniture.
This is so cool! Great job 👏
I've been wanting to paint some ikea bookshelves and this just gave the motivation I needed 😁
Love your ideas and teaching. I tried this after watching your video. Not perfect as yours, but loving it for my son’s room. He loves it too!! Thanks a lot. Silvy
well done! 👏 your kids are so lucky to have such a handy and creative mom!
Thank you sooooo much for this. I’m going to do this to my IKEA furniture cause I outgrew the black and don’t want to waste it lol
Great job! Love the way accents you added. Now that I know about the shellac primer I might give painting one of my laminate shelves another go.
Amazing! I have a bunch of Ikea furniture that has moved with me several times and now is pretty beat up. I want to upgrade to some nicer pieces in my living room but now I can repurpose the ikea furniture for my craft room and baby's room!
Your bookshelf turned out awesome! I am new to your channel and the reason I looked at your video was because you were painting Ikea furniture which I have some of. Because it's reasonably priced. This was such a great idea and I'm like you everything has a place and a place for everything. Thank you for sharing your experience I'm one of your new subscribers! Good luck!
Upon unboxing, I was immediately upset at how the rails were very noticeably bent. But I kept going, all tools needed to assemble were included th-cam.com/users/postUgkxqtX4Dxs6aecAZEuz6GY5-d81YecKCshn and I had it set up in about 30 minutes. Honestly I love this thing, make sure to read the measurements and measure your space so you know if it'll work for you. I bought this to put inside my closet, underneath where I hang my clothes and it is absolutely perfect! It is VERY sturdy and all drawers glide easily and mine are stuffed, and they are still flush when closed.
Love that!
Okay seriously impressed with your organization on your back wall.
Thank you so much I’ve hated the color for years, its time to change it!!
Great tutorial on how to transform a less expensive piece into a more pricey piece!! Thanks Anika!!

I found your video tutorial and excellent step by step process for painting IKEA furniture! Thank you! I am planning out painting my not-sold-at-ikea-anymore dining room table bench. Should I disassemble before prepping/painting? Also since my family will be actively using it for sitting at the table, I'm assuming it would need a sturdy top coat...maybe two. What would you recommend? Thank you!
Veryy nice heyyy Anika.
Great job. Thanks for sharing. Did you in the end use two coatings of the shellac based primer, or one? You were talking about one, but it seemed to me that the second coating was similar to the first. Can you put water-based paint on a shellac based primer? I didn't know that.
Looks good
Fantastic, thank you
Thank you too!
beautiful
wow. good job
Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome! 👍
Thanks! 👍
Just what I needed, thanks. Would you know roughly how much shellac-based primer you used for this project? Also, does the book shelf smell at all after curing?
Nice! 👍
Very nice thank you.very creative
thank you!
I have the same $40 Lack coffee table as every other broke millenial, and I'm wanting to paint it. This video is so helpful!
yay! I hope you love how your project turns out!
Amazing
Great video!!Thank you 💕
May I ask you how long did you finish this work?
Superb 👍👍🙏
Thank you!!
You're welcome!

Thank you!
Great tutorial! Have a few projects in mind now :)
Cute!!!
WOW!!!!!! THat's amazing!! You're amazing!!! I have so many questions... i just don't know where to start...
Get started! And let me know your questions!
You are Wonderful!! Nothing a Man likes more than a Woman that can use Handtools and Power Tools. Very good idea, and planning makes the job easier and goes faster. Thanks for the idea.
Thinking about doing this since I miss the old turquoise kallax/expedit ikea used to sell.
yes... me too :)
'Simple, boring Ikea bookshelf' - I came here to find out how to paint one black just like it ;) Great video though
Me too 😂 front white to black lol
Same 😂
Sameeeee
Me too!!!
🤣
This Is genius !!!!!
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Anika, superb video and so helpful! just one question, you mentioned that after the first coat of latex primer you can use other versions of primer e.g. water base? Have you tried it? In our paint shop the lady was not sure if the water based colour/primer is going to hold on to the first coat of latex primer. Is it safer to use the latex based paint after the latex primer or can we go ahead even with water based paint? thank you
*DING* subscribed.
I Have Small Encyclopedia Library back in garage room.Wooden room Just planing to Apply wood coler
Love the video, great for the encouragement to paint my shoe cabinet. I was trying to find the link for the high performance top coat since I want my cabinet to be a matte finish but couldn't find it. Can you please let me know which one would you recommend?
Here is the link amzn.to/3wbrU0w
You are my idol now
that is so sweet!
What is your favorite strong topcoat? I didn’t see it in the description.
Also, I am painting a laminate desk and need a super strong top coat for the desk top as it will be getting lots and lots of use. What do you recommend to keep the top paint protected?
you could put an epoxy layer on top.
Wow!!
I didn't want to like this but you did a very nice job. You deserve it!!
Thank you so much 😀
Hi, My granddaughter spilled acetone on my white cabinet and I didn't know what to do so I was given your video to watch and now I can paint it and do what you did to make it look nicer I think I'm gonna make each drawer a different color like you did. You're amazing thanks so much.
Glad you found it helpful! Have fun with the project
I am in love with this.
Quick question, do i have to sand it until its a bit white ? To remove the existing dark brown color or just a quick sanding ?!
I have exactly the same shelving unit as you have.
Just a little bit to rough it up - it will just look scratched up.
Hi! Love your work! I’m looking to convert old billy bookcases to use outdoors. I used it for a party and in one day the laminate peeled off in some areas. What wood and sealer do you recommend using to basically cover the melamine under the laminate (removing the laminate)😬
The billy bookcases are not actually wood there more like wood shavings and glue made into panels. That type of material should really never be near moisture because it soaks it up and falls apart.
So, what’s your favorite white paint? 😊 Lol I am going to be doing this to a Grey IKEA dresser that we have! I’m going to be painting it white! Great video, such a big help! Awesome job 👍🏻
My favorite is Alabaster by Sherwin Williams
@@Anikasdiylife did you use interior or exterior paint??
What paint did you use for the shelves and waves??
Nice
Hi! I’m glad I stumbled upon this video. Which semi gloss paint do you recommend?
I have used the following paints with great long-lasting results:
Behr Marquee semi-gloss latex paint
Behr’s cabinet paint (this is semigloss as well.)
Looks great! Is it holding up well?
Its holding ip amazingly. Its been a year and the kids pull out books all the time. There are no scuffs at all
Beautiful! I'm looking to add some detail painting on the front and sides of my ikea bookshelf. Would you do the same thing?
Sure!
Do you get this primer from home depot? I'm trying to paint this desk surface I bought from Ikea which was white to black. Any tips on the paint I should be using? Stain?
This is so cool, thank you!
Could you use beyond paint on ikea laminate furniture?
Hi, so do I ONLY use the BIN primer for first and second coating or did you use any white paint? Thank you and this is so helpful!
I used BIN primer for one coat and regular primer for the second coat and then two coats of paint. You can use only 2 coats of BIN primer if you like but that stuff is expensive so I like to use it for only one coat.
can we use a mini electric sander if we have one?
Hi. May i know the paint you use is oil paint or chalk paint?
Can I paint Besta cabinets with chalk paint without primer?
Hi, now, after 2 years, how shelf's doing? Paint is in good condition or have a lot of scratches?
What top coat do you recommend?
