LAST DAYS OF JULY
Drinking a lot of cocktails and eating ice creams all day long; it's summer and I really enjoy these days. But I am not only busy with laying down and getting a sun kissed tan, I am also busy with my student room and the whole move-out part.
As you've may seen in the previous posts about the 'Student-life in progress' video - click here and the sneak peak of last week, I will move out next month. Before I will show you my whole room about a couple of weeks, I want to focus on one thing: my desk. I will tell you where the stuff is coming from and about the thing called 'Ikea Hack', because I got so many questions about it!
Before I was thinking about this desk, I measured everything of the room (really important!). It's too sad when you bought something which doesn't fit.
Oh! And the pink colored words are clickable.
DOUBLE DESK IKEA HACK
I got this inspiration from Pinterest. It's so perfect, t fits exactly and it saves space for other things like my clothes rack on the left (from Ikea called Rigga).
Two Ikea table tops called Glassholm
Two Ikea table legs called Lerberg
A drawer unit in the middle, Ikea called Alex
Lamp from ikea called Forsa
Others:
Schoolmap from Route53
Two book holders from Hema
Placemats & letter banner from Xenos
Radio is from my parents
Two chairs are from Te Leuk Hout
Candlestick is from V&D
Carpet is from Home24
IMPORTANT TO KNOW:
secretly i didn't knew that the table tops were a bit bluish when they arrived, but it fits perfect with my school map, so now I say that it was all on purpose ;-)
But be prepared: if you choose the 'Glasholm' table top in "white", it's not even a little bit white.
Also the table legs were not intended for these table tops, apparently. A bit frustrated because Ikea doesn't say anything about it in the shop. But I solved it with a rubber mat on the drawer unit and double sided tape on the table legs.
