  • Happy New Year Bargain Family! Today, I'll be showing you how I made my Ikea Alex Desk dupe. The drawers I used are currently sold out online but don't worry! They should have them back in stock. Don't ever pay full price for them. If they aren't on sale when you look online, just hold off to buy the drawers because they always go on sale. Don't forget to use a coupon, if you can. The Ikea Linnmon/Alex Desk retails for $207.99, mine cost $83.75 to make. Hope this is helpful.

    Also fyi. A lot of people complain about the Michael's drawers because they Don't pull out all the way. I had an easy fix to this. I just drilled an extra whole in each side of the drawers so the little plastic stopper would go there and the drawers opened more. Same concept of adding another whole to a belt

    This was very to the point, short and sweet as all vids should be. I also loved how you showed the product dimensions of the drawers and the top, this is the best ❤

    The little nick on your drawer reminds me of one of my favorite quotes: " Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good ". Who would see it anyway!

    Hey sweets! Loved this! Could you please do a dollar tree mail organizer? Or an inexpensive “mud room/entrance” like where you put shoes mail and stuff! I would love to see your creativity!

    This is honestly so perfect. Looks a lot easier to put together than the Alex desk I have right now. I’m in the process of moving and this desk is soooo heavy. I wish I had your version, it’d be a lot easier to move around.

    Thank you! Finally a great looking dupe! I thought i was gonna cave in & buy straight from ikea, you have save me so much money. I will also be adding plexiglass glass ontop for easy cleaning & less stains

    Love it, I basically did the same thing in my office & bedroom, was able to get 4 of the 5 drawer letter press at Michael's with coupons and 4 cost me $27 each. Love your videos you are a great inspiration for everyone who wants to DIY but get stuck. Have a great Holiday season & hope 2018 is good to you. 💜

    Perfect timing Bethany! My daughter and I are redoing the 4th bedroom that I used as a craft room to turn it into a beauty/dressing room. You gave me an idea for the vanity! TFS, hugs ~ Josie :)

    This was really detailed and loved how it turned out! Not nailing the top part down is actually really smart; makes it easier Incase you move or want to rearrange. ☺️💛
