Workspace makeover on a budget | Ikea eket apothecary cabinet hack

- Опубликовано: 1 июн 2024
- One of the reasons we moved into this home was because I needed a space to do my diy work (esp when it got colder outside) & edit videos. Our spare bedroom is 8sqm/ 86sqft and I wanted to maximise the wall space in order to have a lot of floor space to work on my diys. I gave myself a budget of 350€ and love how it turned out! I felt so free to decorate it without overthinking, just throwing lots of colour here and there... it's like my little safe space :-)

when cloudyhills post i immediately click
The shower curtain was a genius idea! Especially how you hid it away in the basket at the top. Can’t wait to see how you use this space.
It was a very good decision to paint that cabinet. Your room turned out so beautiful. Good work!
Thank you for showing us how you hated the first result, it made it so much more real 💚
“It doesn’t have to be perfect now, I can always change it.”
Thank you, I needed to hear this today. ❤
i burst out laughing when you said "I hate it" lol oh bless
the end result is sooooo nice 😭 amazingggg!
Dodie what are you doing here😂❤ I love that you watch these xx
I love the honesty of a DIY not working out like you planned. We've all been there, but no one on YT shows it.
It was a little flimsier than I expected. I had to add a 2x2 piece of wood to the bottom on the rear side in order to stabilize it better ruclips.net/user/postUgkxXTh-lz-8W6GcB219vTLp27-MxbZYObBX . It is also starting to bow a little at the outer wall ( I've had it up for about 6 months), I've already had a shelf tumble down because of the bow and the fact that the little shelf brackets are quite short. I went out to home depot and got some longer ones so that the shelves don't tumble down again. Overall, it looks very nice for the price and it holds a lot ( I use it as a pantry). I am very satisfied with my purchase. I just strongly suggest reinforcing it before putting it up.
i feel so inspired watching your design process, and your videography is so cozy and feels like we're in it together! thanks for sharing :)
❤️❤️❤️
I love that one side of the room is just utility and storage and the other has so much space to be open and creative
the final result is so beautiful and cozy!! i was not sold on the track shelving at first but ahhh the decors have balanced everything and brought comforting elements back to the room. happy holidays to you and Pat! looking forward to your 2023 DIYs!
I absolutely understand your struggle with the cabinets. We painted half of one wall in the study dark green. The color selection took forever. And it always looked great in my imaginations and Pinterest ideas. But when the wall was painted, I didn't feel comfortable at all and i was so depressed. Well, and now the wall is white and we will design the room like the rest of the apartment in warm beige and brown tones. I think sometimes it's absolutely ok not to dare anything and to stay with what you have always felt comfortable😊
I've never related so much to a content creator like this before haha. I have adhd and i'm so indecisive and constantly changing the layout of our house, which includes doing a lot of diy projects. Hearing “It doesn’t have to be perfect now, I can always change it" is so comforting especially when I think about all the times I did a project just to re-do it later on since I changed my mind about it.
hi cloudyhills and a happy morning/evening for you all!😊
I love RUclipsrs who keep it real. ❤ We don't always end up loving our first choice of colour or layout or whatever it is we're working on. And whilst it feels disappointing to have spent time/money/effort on something we don't end up liking, it's totally fine to go back to the drawing board and do what you know you like 😊
As frustrating as DIY can be the process is so therapeutic. I really like how you showed the process of changing your mind and painting that piece before going to sleep. I can totally relate 😂
I don't usually comment on many videos, but honestly your videos are so calming, creative and motivating! Definitely helping make decisions for my new flat ☺️
I'm currently little by little doing my home office and even though the use of the room is completely different, watching how you do your space inspires me a lot on mine !
Tell me you’re a DIY RUclipsr without telling me you’re a DIY RUclipsr 😆 Place looks absolutely gorgeous, Hill, but then again it always does when you’re doing room makeovers. Well done! 😊
Beautiful! I really like the new color for the apothecary cabinet along with the gold pulls, make it even more spectacular! The room has such a calming & soothing vibe. I LOVE IT!!
Enjoy your day!!!
I love the "German apartment." So beautiful and efficient.
Your spatial brain is pretty amazing. I love your creativity and your drive to create.
Do not be too hard on yourself. You can fix things, no need to stress the small stuff.
Thank you. I have no Telegram. G-d bless.
So good, as always! I laughed when you said "Just kidding" I couldn't sleep until I fixed it! :) Kudos for trying something new and for just simply fixing it when you didn't love it.
I really like this space and especially all your decor! Functional yet calming and cute! I think it was a great idea to divide the cabinets again, now it really does not seem to take up that whole corner
Yessss it was looking too chunky, I love how floaty it looks now!
Yeah, gray paints almost always have a blue hue. I found out the hard way too! Sometimes it works. But now I always pick a warmer neutral color, or something that has green undertones instead of blue.
13:10 oh dang, as a fellow creative, I felt that SO bad 🥲 Scrapping a project is never fun, but it's really inspiring to see you move onward and the great result afterwards :) ♥
I've been following your channel for a while, and I think this is my favourite home project of yours by far~ its always so nice to see the space in which one creates, and this is giving me all sorts of inspiration (the curtain shower? genius!)
Thanks as always for sharing your projects and process with us, roller coasters and all~ :))) btw I hope you take this as a compliment but I'm seriously envious of your wall-drilling skills in particular~ I've put up many a shelf, but none ever look as clean as yours 🥲👍
Aw thank you so much! I didn't have high expectations for this room but ended up loving it too. As for the wall drilling, you just need more practice! 😄 I couldn't do it properly for the first few months either~
Your space is not only efficient but calming and beautiful. Great job ❤
I HAVE THAT DESK CHAIR! I've never been so happy realising I own the same thing as someone as aesthetic and cool as you :)
hi-5!
I liked the look of the anthracite gray but I think the reason the cabinet looked off was because it didn’t match the rest of the room. If it had been placed in a room with other things in a similar color it would’ve looked great
Bravissima! Sei molto creativa, spontanea e con dei bei sentimenti. È un piacere seguirti! Grazie per i bei momenti trascorsi in tua compagnia.❤❤❤
i love how indecisive you are in the middle of doing projects because thats exactly how i am as well. theres also no patience for me to wait or sleep on options ahahah. the momentum to get everything done here and now IS STRONK 😅😅💕💕
I would have nightmares of it if I just went to sleep! 😂
the curtain divider is such a good idea
The space is soooo adorable! And I love all the little details you put into it! Going to buy the rattan doors for my shelves in my livingroom! Was going to buy new cabinets but I can use my shelves I already have and dress them up! UUuuuu I can't wait! ❤Thank you for sharing your ideas and process!
Queen of DIY! I love watching the entire process of it :) thank you for showing it to us! Loving the thrifted decor too!! 😊💓
I love that you do everything properly, and I can definitely relate to the indecision/hating something halfway through. Oh well! That's how these things go🫠
You have such a nice taste! Everything you create is extremely inspirational! Congratulations from Barcelona, Spain!
thank you alba ❤️
You are so talented, Hillary! I agree that your videos are very inspiring. I would love to see more of your planning process. You have obviously spent (a lot of?) time planning it all out, and it is great to see how it all comes together so beautifully.
The finished colors are so perfect and soothing
So relaxing! I love your style it feels effortless
I’m new to the DIY game, but maybe try using a wood conditioner on the raw pine shelves and THEN you can stain them. Wood conditioner should help reduce blotching (which makes the wood grain look “busy,” as you stated). If you try it out, please let me know how it turns out! Good luck!
thank you for showing the whole process- also the parts that didn’t work out in the beginning, thats really helpful!
good job :)
What an amazing job! The room turned out really organized, cozy & beautiful! 👏👏👏👏😍😍😍
Always love how you make everything else look better and aesthetic :)
I really appreciated how honest you were about your decision making process, what a mood lmao thank you for sharing your entire process, I really enjoyed watching it!
Video Idea: the stuff for DYI you have, like machines products and where you buy stuff for DYI. Would be very helpful :)
Cloudyhills is genies in DIY yet being aesthetic ✌🏻 pleasing to watch. Sometimes I feel we should have love option in RUclips likes 😁 you gonna have it more !
Love the end result, and the lighter color on the apothecary unit SO MUCH BETTER. ❤
putting that cabinet on the wall was so smart it looks so good!
It's great how you recouped that cabinet and managed to change it to improve it. the end result was so nice. Love the light grey and gold handles.
I always look forward to your posts. Rubber gloves will help getting something unstuck, I use mine whenever I can’t get a jar top open or a screwed on top off.😀
Thank u so much for this u are so transparent and u showed us that we don't need to spend a lot a use what we can afford and still create a beautiful space that we love
Wow! I Love how you can tuck away the shower curtain in the basket, that’s just an awesome idea!
You could paint in between the fake panelling of the cabinet to create a "shadow" and make them look more like drawers. This way they would match the actual separation of the doors better
Your videos bring me so much peace and satisfaction
Wirklich sehr schön 🤩👍. Den Kalender finde ich richtig klasse 👍
I was looking for a nice workspace setup with the ikea eket - thanks a lot for sharing!
As always, so creative and talented
Amazing. I love you videos. So creative and encouraging.
You did a fantastic job! It's so organized and looks beautiful.
I just love the style of your videos. Thanks for allowing us all in your newly refreshed safe space.
U did a right thing about the hanging cabinet. Nice re-coloured 😁👍👍👍
So soothing to see this on a cozy winter day !
OMG! I loved this video! First time watching you.
I’ve been binging you ever since I got to know your videos. Can’t get enough of you’re creative and beautiful ideas. It gave me the energy to do something better in my place !! 😍 thank you so much, and I hope to see your more creative side, I’ve seen some beautiful drawings already that I really love (especially the bear with his very cute fire friend) !!
Ça vous réussi de ne pas trop réfléchir 😉 le résultat est top 🤗🤩 Avoir un endroit dédié et une ambiance agréable est plus motivant pour travailler avec plaisir. Ce petit coin est très mignon 😍👌
The shower curtain hack is genius!! Love your style 😊
I love it! It looks so cozy yet practical!
This is my first video from your channel, really digging the chill vibe your video gives off. The little vintage wheels are so cute... love the details you added to the room in the end. Greetings from another person in Germany
Nice job again! Love the idea of upgrading or decorating that can be change easily.
so BEAUTIFUL I love your work!!
I love the vlog and the new room 🙌🏼
I immediately was so happy to hear you say that you didn't have to over think in decorating your new space. I also love the antiques you show and the stationary you have organized. I have so much stationary and needs to be displayed but I need to also finish unpacking in my new home to see how to display my stationary collection 🙌🏼✨ I cannot wait until your next video ❤️
I love how you constructed the cabinets drawers shelves all by yourself. These are all something I would have asked my dad to help me with 😭🧡
Looove it!!! Thank you aswell for showing your process even when you hsve to change things
i love the output how it turns out. and you are so real about the process😊
Beautiful. I love everything you did. A lovely place to work!
Appreciation package? I appreciate all the work you do to share with us.
That workspace is lovely!
I love your style! So nice to have your own workspace 🥰
You are extremely talented! Wow!! That room is beautiful! I loved the cabinet before, but you made it better! That’s amazing! ❤️
Im addicted to your content ❤ you’re so talented 🥹❤️❤️
J'aime beaucoup le meuble Ivar, fonctionnel, pratique et joli : c'est sûr je vais te prendre l'idée pour faire mon espace bricolage. Le meuble que tu as relooker est très joli: tu as bien fait de le repeindre en "gris" et de rajouter des boutons : je garde aussi l'idée 😉
Your DIY are always beautiful and orderly 🤩
Wow what an incredibly inspirational video and stunning result!!! I’m so happy for you and your space. I am in the midst of a complete office / garage DIY reno myself and am so impressed by your skills and eye! Thank you!! ❤
I was just watching your video and noticed the book from London about poetry was kinda a emerald green color I'm mentioning this because from about 1814 to the 1900 emerald green was a very popular color but people stopped using it because they discovered it was toxic and could get people really sick it was found in a lot of old books too. I just wanted to let you know so that your safe😁 I would get it checked out to be sure. Love your videos they bring me so much comfort❤
you always do such an amazing work! I love it! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Lovely, lovely, lovely, it's just so lovely 🥺
Also, thank you for showing the downsides of the real project 💛
Such a lovely space!
wow, such a lovely space to be in . it turned out amazing !
You always do such a great job! I need to organize my building materials as well, it's hard to get inspired if everything is a mess.... I wish you a warm and cozy holiday season!🎄❤
Absolutely stunning
wow so cozy and beautiful🥰
❤thank you for sharing your project with us. it was fun to watch. for the new year, we are starting small projects around the house, so this video gave us a few tips.❤
This looks stunnin g! Also love how the cabinet worked out
Great video! The results area amazing and it really inspires me to do some renovation. Thanks!
Love those organization as in 2023 i want to organize more of my stash
Always a pleasure to watch your videos... so much talent! Hugs from France :)
I loved this so much.
What a great, thorough home office tutorial!
I related so much when you tried to experiment with color onto the faux apothecary unit and ended up hating it. I do that so much with some of the ceramics I have painted. I branch out with bright colors and then absolutely wipe them and start again haha! This was such a good video!! Your space turned out so nice!!
Dort ist gar nichts schlecht mit einem braun Haus! Alle Zimmer arbeitet zusammen für ein schönes Haus!
You are amazingly talented!
J'adore vos vidéos elle sont tellement reposantes et agréables à regarder 🥰
