Besta Kids
The Ikea Besta product line's simplicity just begs to be personalized. Here are 29 incredible Ikea Besta hack ideas that will make you wonder if they really are from Ikea!
Ikea's Besta collection is a very simple collection that may look plain, but what it lacks in interest it more than makes up for in functionality and affordability.
While not as well known as the Kallax or Billy systems, the Besta Ikea collection is ideal for smaller spaces and might be even more versatile than its better-known counterparts.
Thanks to Ikea's simple product designs, DIYers everywhere love "hacking" or personalizing the products to make them more interesting and unique. The Besta line lends itself well to personalization through changing out the front pieces, crafting legs, or adding hardware.
The sky's the limit when it comes to hacking Ikea Besta products!
