    Love it! Gorgeous! I think you should attach the backing. I had a piece of furniture (an armoire) that had the backing fall off. It was too small and I never bothered to replace it. The backing actually gives it structural stability- I didn't know this! My piece ended up getting all wonky and the drawers would not close right after a while. You could always cut holes in the back for your cords...I love how creative you are! This looks so expensive and fresh!

    • @MeganBell
      @MeganBell  4 года назад +1

      Great tip! I just left it off, but I totally could have cut holes, like you said.

      I had a piece of furniture collapse when I tried to move it without the back on 😬

    • @MeganBell
      @MeganBell  4 года назад

      The backing on the ivar is paper thin, guys. I don’t think it’s collapsing without it.

    • @teresacarle294
      @teresacarle294 4 года назад +1

      @@MeganBell 🤔 If followers are worried about stability, they can add four square -or- quarter round trim pieces (8 pieces total). Cut slightly smaller than depth of cabinet to fit each inside each corner.
      •Pick wood screws or finishing nails that will go thru trim piece into the interior side as well as top/bottom (w/o piercing all the way to exterior of cabinet when the nail or screw is all the way in).
      The fact two cabinets are screwed together in the center could also improve overall stability. If that's the case, you could scale back trim in outer corners only (4 pieces total). Something like that would help prevent any potential wobble or collapse. 🦋

    This is stunning, as usual. Love that you are showing how to uplevel inexpensive furniture too and not destroy antiques!
    It would be awesome if the makers of RUclips would stop promoting Amazon and promote other makers and Indie businesses instead. You can find GORGEOUS furniture legs and knobs etc on Etsy for example for a super reasonable price OR even just really unique details that people might want to use if they were told to visit that site instead. I have purchased both authentic MCM legs and reeeeally gorgeous acrylic and gold leaf legs for the same amount as I would have paid on Amazon. With the number of people who have been stuck at home doing projects it was a huge missed opportunity to support the small businesses and artisans who need it.

    Hello! I am going to give this a shot, I'm wondering which selection you chose on the cane webbing website, there are so much!! Also how many feet did you order to cover all four doors?

    Hi! Did you only screw in the legs with 2 screws? Is that because the base is hollow or did I just miss something?

      That's exactly right. There's only specific places to screw the legs in, otherwise your screws go through the bottom of the credenza as the wood on the base of it has areas where it is too thin.

    Was the cane still wet when you stapled it in place? I’m about to attempt something similar but I get caught up in the details. 😩

    They make cane doors for these, or is that just in Australia? I wonder if those doors, $55 Aus, would fit onto the standard Ivar cupboard. I have a feeling they do.

    LOVE this video! Im going IKEA to start this project! I was wondering what the exact cane is that you purchased on the website and how much you purchased. Is there any way for you to comment and let me know? Thank you and I love your channel!
