Such a hacker!

I aspire to become a hacker…an Ikea hacker! Apparently this is the latest craze and I guess I’ve just been living under a rock for the last few years, but now I’m ALL over it! It makes sense; these super-smart/super-creative/sometimes-bored people purchase cheap Ikea items and turn it into awesome DIY works of art to furnish or accessorize their homes. I don’t blame them—if you’ve got the talent and inspiration while trying to get through these tough times, go for it and make us drool! I’ve come across so many awesome Ikea hacks and I want to copy them all! Where to start?!
