Do you also have an IKEA KALLAX UNIT? if you, you NEED to try this DIY! SO EXCITED FOR YOU TO SEE THE FINAL RESULT!!!😍👏
What color is it ? It look to me like sand or maybe is white I don’t know you tell me please
She said she painted with a color called Almond Wisp.
Looks AMAZING Kristen…definitely inspired to transform my unit. The only problem is that mine is from Target. Wonder if the Kalax inserts and door would fit. Love love LOVE!!!! Hugs- Rosalia!
Hi! Can I achieve this look with a unit from Target?!?
Great job, love the color!
The legs look really good not being placed at the edges, it actually looks more high end for me 🤩
Yay! Yes I’m actually very happy with the placement too!
Agree. Love it. Great job.
@@kayelle8005 lol lol lll
Yes! Very modern and chic. 😉
Yes, agreed. Looks better set in a bit like this. And I usually don't like black hardware but with this colour it's stunning...
I've seen a lot of youtube DIY channels attempt a similar project. Yours is by far the easiest to execute, the smartest in terms of strategy (using already attached doors), and the best looking one in the final result. Really well done!
I love it through and through! 🤩 You are so creative and talented, Kristen. May you and your husband enjoy this piece and everything else in your home with great health, harmony, and all of the love your hearts can possibly contain!! ❤️❤️
Kristen this is absolutely one of the best furniture upgrades I've ever seen. It is an amazing transformation!
This is my all-time favorite IKEA transformation! It looks high-end, and the legs and hardware are perfection. I have a KALLAX in storage, and this is exactly what I intend to do--thanks for sharing your talent and ideas.
Absolutely does not look high-end! The finishes are very poor.... The half-rounds are extremely poorly prepared and finished ... Not good
@@cassey3063 what would you have done differently ?
This looks great Kristen you're absolutely so talented. I love how it turned out.
Thank you!!
That trim is such a brilliant idea! I’m so glad I came across this video - I have an old Expedit (the old version of Kallax) and I’ve been trying to figure out how to make it look better. I am totally using your idea. It looks fantastic and like a much more expensive piece! ❤️
Have you done yours?? How did it come out?
The piece came out beautifully. It has a sleek yet soft look to it and could fit in any decor. To me it has an Art Deco vibe to it as well. Great job.
I have been looking everywhere for this style in an accessible price for a single mom, now I can have it!!! Thanks a lot Kristen McGowan you have made my dream come true. This is my first video but I will definitely be checking for more of your fantastic creations.
Sadly currently in Canada just the wood (half round) would cost 200$… not really accessible.
@@JD10NN3 Understand but the comparables r $1700- 8000. I know accessibility is subjective but I stand by my comment.
I have been binging your videos for weeks now, you are so good! So inspiring. And you seem like a great person with a really nice energy too!
And... you make this ⬆️ look easy, not like it took you hours and hours. I always need to remind myself about the real, massive work people like you put behind each project! Looks amazing!
This is incredible and extremely inspiring. I have been searching nonstop trying to find a video/tutorial of how to re-finish a piece and this is giving some serious empowering energy. Love it
Absolutely 💘 LOVE the way this cabinet turned out. It looks so High End. The color and hardware made it complete.
LOVE how this turned out!! And it looks like it is a simpler diy then many others like this. Nice job!
Amazing job! Those half-round pieces were a brilliant unifying touch for top and bottom doors. Also, you did a great job matching the door handles with the legs.
Omg I Love how you've transformed this unit, I have these myself and was considering getting rid of the one in the hallway, I have changed my mind since watching your transformation and been inspired to attempt to transform my own. Thank you so much! 🥰😊
I’m so sick of Furniture is being so expensive when you can actually achieve it like you have done . Amazing 🤩
Obsessed with this transformation! More ikea transformations please!! Also, love the new intro!
The transformation is a WOW! What a difference from the plain bookcase to an amazing cabinet. Enjoy your videos.
OMG you give women a good name!!!! You can make any project look so simple!! I have been watching you for years now and I learn more about what CAN be done every time. Thanks 🙏 for your help all-ways!!
Looks beautiful very elegant 👌👏🏼
That came out so much better than I had thought. Talking about a transformation makeover. 💘
It's doesn't looks like the former kallax anymore at first sight!... its wonderful! the way you repurpose it, Kristen... love it! ❤️😊
This is one of the best IKEA hacks I’ve seen. Absolutely beautiful and looks like a piece of high end furniture. Thank you for sharing. Also the paint color & hardware are perfect. I love clean lines and for me this piece ticked all the boxes for me. ❤️💯✅
I love it Kristen, you are the best designer!!
LOVE how it turned out! Can't wait to see the rest of the entryway!
Kristen, you did such an amazing job 😍 I love it!!!!!!! & I love the visions you have for certain furniture pieces/spaces!! The turnout is always so beautiful. You inspire me so much 🥰🥰🥰
Love this tutorial! It looks absolutely beautiful! So glad I found your station❤️. I have the large (25 cube) unit which I purchased second hand for my office…I think I’m going to do this for the top of the unit. Great idea! Thank you!
Kristen, words can't even express how much I love your videos ❤️ I have been subscribed to you for about 8 months, and have never regretted it, because you are the right person to be subscribed too 🥺
Stumbled upon this vid & am now obsessed. Your comment confirmed I should subscribe!
WOW!! No one would guess this is a Kallax unit. It looks like an expensive sideboard. You did an amazing job.
I absolutely love this! Simple and easy. Hard to believe the transformation
I love this idea. I am definitely going to do this one. Thank you so much for sharing.
WOW! What a transformation! It turned out great. My only change would be to run a sander across the tops of the half-rounds after they’re installed so they’re exactly the same height. Looks great as is!
Here's what my carpenter did on a much larger project. He installed all the cross pieces with extra overhang. After they were all in, he used a saw to cut all of them at one time, perfectly the same length. For this project the way she did it, it would require removing the door units after the half-moons were nailed on so they could be cut and sanded.
My OCD saw that too. It really does look good - her project. Maybe trim across the top.
I love this! I NEVER would’ve thought about doing this! Thank you so much for always giving such great, beautiful, AFFORDABLE ideas ❤️
This is exactly what I was looking for as a dining room sideboard to upgrade my space! Thank you so much for the idea!
Love this idea! Have seen a couple of these done now & they've all turned out so nice. May need to give it a try too! 💖
Loveeee how this turned out! What a transformation into a beautiful modern piece! One thing that would make your videos more helpful when doing this type of content is including the prices and then showing a comparison of a high end furniture piece price to the total price of your DIY! 💕💕
I agree, great idea ☺️. I did a quick calculation based on the prices in the links and the info in the video, and the DIY would cost you about 525 dollars - not including tools. The kallax inserts are expensive and the wood adds up too. Not that expensive for the result, but not nothing :)
I am fairly new watching you, fabulous I. am so inspired, will be attempting to do the transformation as soon as I can get into my garage.Watching from Toronto. mid February.
This looks great. Re use something and making it new.
Great inspiration.
Holy Moly!!! That transformation is mind blowing! I was thinking they could be a viable kitchen cabinet option.
Thank you for sharing your brilliance!
Absolutely love the transformation of this piece!!! Great job!!
Love it so much, great job
Thank you so much!!💗💗
Well done
We love it. I would never have thought of doing something like this it’s fab x
This is gorgeous. Looks high end for way less, and quite doable even for a novice. Great job!
Wow, Kristen. You have outdone yourself. Looks amazing!
Such a fun idea, can't wait to see the results 🤗🙈
That is sooo awesome! I’m looking to give my Malm dressers a more high end look (I have two white dubble dressers next to eachother). I got some good ideas from you 🤩
I love that you transformed an affordable piece to something that looks worth $500-$600…amazing job and love the modern take on it🙌🏽
I am in absolute awe. This is amazing. So inspirational.
This is so stunning and such a smart way to use what you already have.
Looks awesome, you probably could've still put the doors so they were flush to the front of the cabinet since you installed the fluted pieces on the surface, they shouldn't be an issue sitting on the edge of the frame.
I was about to type the same!
OH MY, it is absolutely gorgeous!
Well done indeed. ❤️The black metal element gives the whole thing so much modern/ industrial character, what a pleasant surprise. You have great taste👍
Looks great! Do you mind telling me where the black vase that you used to style the cabinet at the end is from?
😱 This piece looks so AMAZING!! You have incredible talent and a good eye to envision such an incredible piece out of the storage cube piece I’m blown away!!
Wow this is gorgeous and pretty simple compared to a lot of other IKEA flips Ive seen!! Thanks for sharing this awesome project 🙌🏼
Yes! Iove this idea! I know it feels so good to see something you made,as soon as you walk in the door😍👩🔧.
Amazing job! Looks like $1,000 piece now. What was the total cost including supplies and paint?
If you don't already have the doors, it would be somewhere between $200 to $300.
Absolutely stunning 🙌🏻 😍…. thank you for sharing.
The only minor criticism is placing it in front of a somewhat large cold air return, very important for air flow of your home.
Super impressed. Love that you showed each product you used. 👏
Looks awesome. Using the half rounds to join the doors, and get that custom look, was genius.
I love u so much tell Christen I love him as well
Wonderful transformation! What was the cost of added supplies to complete this? It would be nice to include that in the ending of the video as well.
It all depends on what tools and supplies you already have! I already had the unit so that was free, I had to buy the doors which were $17 each, wood was about $110, paint about $20, feet were $17, pulls were $10 each!
@@KristenMcGowan Thank you! That information is helpful!
@@lorig.7127 Not sure whereabouts you're located but the project cost for wood should be even cheaper, since lumber prices are dropping now! Best of luck
@@TheMochaMonster I imagine the half-dowel molding to cover the front added up in cost.
@@KristenMcGowan So gorge!! How many dowels did you buy? I have so many Kallax pieces and want to do this asap! Thx!
The best of the video is how you explain everything in way that even I understand it. I'm going to try this, because it looks very high-end.❤
I just want to say ... Wow !
Out of all the years I have been on TH-cam I have probably subscribed to a few people . Love your energy, you are so talented!!
Nice transformation, however I would definitely inset the doors and avoid having the gaps shown from the side and also the double thickness of door + the half round dowels.
This looks so good. Such a pretty transformation. I was trying to think if it would work with having the cubby doors flush as designed, and I think it would, and then it’d just be the half moon wood pieces protruding. Still, really awesome transformation 🙌🏼
I tried but the molding pieces get in the way of the doors opening all the way when they are flush! So they had to come out a bit!
@@KristenMcGowan ahhhhh hadn’t thought of that. Good point 👍🏼 xoxo
It would work if you had thinner wood slats or soomething - have to test by taping in place and seeing how it works to open the door.
@@dianawilliams3514 But if you used something else (shiplap, beadboard, etc.) then mounting them flush might work.
You really present well and make it so easy to listen to you. I have learned a lot from all of your videos! I now have a plan to redo my entire small home for cozy, warm, and elegant ideas! Thank you for keeping your videos efficient and informative and detail-oriented! You are SO GOOD at what you do!
Beautiful- unbelievable transformation and a very polished piece
You did a stunning job 😍 I love it ❤
Wow! I'm speechless. Great IKEA hack.
Total transformation! Turned out unique and beautiful. Definitely not the usual shoe rack by the front door now.
This is a beautiful transformation.
This is the most beautiful transformation i've ever seen ❤
The transformation is amazing. I love it.
Kristen. You are my fav designer. I have learned so so much that my husband is impressed with my skills that I learned from you😊 thank you
You are so talented sharing your own talent !!!
This is STUNNING !!!! Wow. Just wow.
Absolutely GORGEOUS!! I have IKEA's Kallax unit in my entryway and your brilliant diy totally inspires me🙌

Wow!!! Amazing! I have a Kallax unit in my home office and now I’m tempted to transform it too. Thank you for the idea.

What a beautiful transformation.
Now it looks like a high end credenza love it
Such an amazing transformation! This looks so luxe 🥰
This is lovely and looks relatively easy to do! Thank you so much for posting this!!

Such a great and creative idea. I was thinking about doing something like this, but you showed me how I could do this at a low cost! Love your channel.
