There’s not much I love more than a really good IKEA hack. This shelf is one that can be tackled in a weekend and the beauty lasts forever… or at least until you switch out the furniture.

This shelf is actually two IKEA Expedit shelves put together and topped with paint sticks that have been stained various colors. Genius, right? Looks so sleek and modern. Visit Amy Krist for more pictures and the full tutorial!

  1. Absolutely love this ikea hack, so simple! I am also in love with the lamp, wondering where I can get one of those?

  2. Hi Samantha! I’m not exactly sure, but these types of lamp bases can usually be found at places like TJ Maxx and Home Goods! 🙂
