#1 Ikea Trysil closet hack: Polka Dots

Our first Ikea closet hack can be done with a simple set of black and pink dots. The color scheme works great with a plain Scandinavian white furniture. The result looks best when you split some of the dots in half and place around the sides.

#5 Ikea Dombas closet hack: 80's Vibes

There is no better way to pimp your closet than with a retro 80's pattern. Choose the colour combination that better suits your decor, we personally love the black/pastels combo but if you prefer a more minimalistic look, go for all black and leave more space between each shape.

That's it for today, go and have some fun. Ok?
