As soon as I started planning out the play room and accumulated toys on toys on toys, I knew the day had come that I needed a Kallax unit from Ikea. I always dreaded this day because I was never a big fan of them, but practicality wise, nothing can beat the price tag and functionality of it. Here are a few tips that help elevate the look of the Ikea Kallax.
Adding Legs
Although I liked the cleaner lines, I couldn't justify the price point Ikea Eket cabinet compared to the Kallax. I loved their price point on the leg base and was able to get a set of base legs that fit the width of the Kallax unit I wanted.
Some other options I was considering were gold furniture legs on Amazon. Try searching triangle furniture legs, brass furniture legs and hairpin legs to see what suits your place best!
Mix & Matching Inserts
Another quick tip was having different inserts within each unit. On the top I used baskets and had full sized bins on the bottom. This play on shapes breaks out the monotony and refreshens a typical Kallax unit filled with full sized bins.
