To fill in that gap, we use 2 x 3 boards cut to length. We then framed behind the cabinet rear section with 2 x 3s. We pushed the cabinets away from the wall to match the bed frame.

We Created Easy And Affordable Built Ins Surrounding Our Old Fireplace Using Ikea Kitchen Base Cabinets And Adding Shelves And Trim To Complete The Look.


I used 30″ wide cabinets, so i built my shelves to be the exact width and depth as my upper cabinets. For a size reference i have 10′ ceilings , so i designed my connecting shelf unit to be 27″ tall. Nail the scribed face frame to the cabinets.

We Wanted The Front Of The Cabinets To Be Almost Flush With The Front Of The Bed.


We decided that closed storage down below with open shelves up top would be a nice look and give us hidden storage. Countertop (we used 2×12 boards) Stock base cabinets (we used two 30 base cabinet from lowes) thin plywood to finish the cabinet ends ;

How We Created An Ikea Diy Built In Using Ikea Kitchen Cabinets And Shelves.


Let it dry for about 24 hours. The cabinets need panels for the sides that will be exposed. I want to be sure that i break it all down so you can recreate this in your own home.

Cut And Install The Remaining Face Frames To The Cabinets.


Its a pretty simple diy that started with a couple stock cabinets from lowes, so today i want to share the process we followed so you can recreate it in any space and in any size! Each column was made of a two plywood sides , a plywood top, a thin wood backing, and two support braces (one at the top and one at the bottom).

We also bought 12″ deep cabinets since they were in stock, (too impatient to special order anything) and we wanted our unit to be 18″ deep, so our plan was to leave a space behind the cabinets for cords and airflow for the vent and to redirect the air out the side. So a built in with closed cabinets for hidden storage for toys, tv components, and movies, was a must, but we had to come up with a budget friendly option. (cabinets come in many different dimensions, which is yet another reason that this project could work for any size or space.)
