Ikea 'hacks' give pieces new purpose, Inspired by Republic reporter Jaimee Rose's transformation of a used Ikea dresser into a stylish dining-room buffet, we asked readers to enter their Ikea hacking projects in a contest.
Thanks for the great idea.Fantastic! Just be sure to get one that is the right height and it should look great!DOES IT MATTER ABOUT THE HEIGHT SO MUCH IF i BUY THE ADJUSTABLE LEGS. You have shown me how, and I cannot wait to get to Ikea in Memphis to purchase these items.

I love sharing easy projects that anyone can tackle- even for those who don't think they have a creative bone in them!
