A Modern To Classic Makeover 🔨 IKEA Malm Dresser Hack/Revamp

[@lindagoesel3815]

Painting in a white knit dress, pregnant, you are amazing. Great job. 😂❤

[@Loepsie]

NO RISK NO GAIN 😂

[@kirstenpaff8946]

It's always fun to see how creative people get with IKEA furniture. I once painted a TARVA dresser to look like a bunch of stacked Hogwarts trunks. Adding the correct handles made all of the difference.

[@jaylee5905]

Girl you can totally do those doors! Get a mask and sand outdoors. Sanding outdoors keeps the particles out of your home and furniture anyway. The drawers looks great and k look forward to see what you create for the doors!

[@andreamichellerosa9582]

Lucy is very good at working in small places wow paint all in that little space I would gone crazy haha

[@MituDjakarian]

I was thinking the same!!! It was impressive, haha!!

[@raynield2080]

Love how they came out, gives me the urge to do some DIY myself. Watching your videos is so calming

[@Loepsie]

DIY is so rewarding 😄💕

[@Daniela-kc2ur]

I almost couldn't look at you painting next to this gorgeous new wallpaper. 😅 I for sure would have splattered a great deal of paint onto it by mistake 😜

[@MisteurJoe]

I had no idea you could do something this pretty and soft such ... "normal" Ikea dresser, it goes perfectly with the style of the room !!

[@maritzelcastillon1969]

The drawers look amazing! And you look stunning 😍 definitely the most energetic pregnant lady I’ve seen 😂 very excited for your next videos ❤

[@Loepsie]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar]

They look great! I love seeing people learn new skills. I've been thinking about doing trim panels on my living room walls!

[@SandieMitchell]

Check out Dainty Diaries channel she paneled her livingroom and it looks fantastic!

[@SandieMitchell]

The dresser looks great! Well done, ya little dinamo!😍

[@Grace_x68]

Looks stunning. I use chest of drawers as bedside tables. Works a treat

[@lindouglass4115]

I like how they came out! Makes me want to redo the one in my daughters room. Thanks for sharing

[@Loepsie]

It made the biggest difference! 😄

[@Flampivia]

The green is soo peaceful, love it ❤

[@minounah]

Bravo!! Have you thought of crown molding where wall meets the ceiling? I think it would be a gorgeous accent and pull everything together ..as an understatement I know you're more than a bit busy now, but this would be a super easy project after everything you've done!! 💪🧚

[@gabrielavasickova9755]

Love it! You could also do the same with the tall chest of drawers that is currently in the nursery. 😊

[@Propercupoftea]

Your house has certainly become a home! Love the greens it's super cute! I hope you are getting on alright with your pregnancy 💚

[@Loepsie]

Thank you!! 😊

[@spinacetta89]

I can't believe it, I was actually preparing to do the same exact thing to a built in wardrobe, down to the shade! lol

[@beepbopboop3221]

The greens in the room are nice! I like it!

[@yvonneedwards5789]

I love the look of the entire room. Those dressers are stunning! ❤🎉

[@manicantsettleonausername6789]

They turned out great! I just moved so I'm full of home deco inspo now.

[@boubo9]

it looks amazing! well done!

[@kiuakakirstine8257]

Looks great - just like you. Congrats with the baby 2 come! ❤

[@hollybrooke322]

Those came out beautifully.

[@munka214]

So cute! Love that green shade. What kind of shears are those? I think I need a pair so I don't always have to grab the hacksaw 🤣😂

[@turbotoshikiara1931]

You are so creative 💚This turned out great 💚

[@annigerusa]

Gorgeous! Now I need to hop over to fb marketplace or the local thrift shop, find me a dresser and some paint 😅

[@kellybryson7754]

They look wonderful.

[@ushere5791]

great job!! they look wonderful! :)

[@FlamedWater]

What a transformation! It looks so much better now. I've been thinking about painting an IKEA Pax recently. But I'm afraid I would be able to see the paint roller lines on it afterwards. You know, those lines that reveal that it was hand painted because you can see every stroke of the paint brush. How did you achieve cohesion in the coat of paint? Can you tell it was hand painted?

[@stone.durfey5862]

Looks great, a job well done😉

[@sarahallegra6239]

They look really beautiful! Great job!!

[@indiamunoz610]

maybe try to put the yoga mats basket right next to the dresser so its more kind of covered there ? and the stuffed animals basket right in the corner if you know what I mean! I think it would look better just swapping it like that

[@janesmith1398]

Looks great! Beautifully done. The trim really transformed them. Are you going to give them a couple of coats of polyurethane, too?

[@aliciamabelrozada7989]

Hermoso quedó genial ❤😊❤❤❤

[@AnniCarlsson]

thats looking great. me upgrading my old rast dressers rigth now. btw the paint number would acculy say what color mix it really is for other counties becouse it should just be how mutch of what base to mix to get it. it can be sligth diffrence due to what bases white are used and how that one looks but other then that it´s just the recipie

[@kellysanford3571]

Looks awesome! Staring at our Malm dresser from bed wondering if that will be our next project! Never seen clippers like that before - anyone know what they are called?

[@Loepsie]

I believe the English word is miter shears!

[@kellysanford3571]

Thank you!!@@Loepsie

[@AgnesN]

It turned out amazing! A question related to the bedroom, how do you like the Emma mattress after using it for a longer time, does it still hold up? Thinking about getting a mattress, and it's so hard to find one which lasts on the long run.

[@Loepsie]

It's by far the nicest mattress I've ever had! We had to take the whole bed apart a few weeks back to install the baby cosleeper and the mattresses still look the same as the day we got them. It's very comfortable and supportive. On our old mattress, when one of us turned in our sleep the other would get launched up but on this one you barely notice the other's movements. We're genuinely very happy with it! 😊

[@AgnesN]

@@Loepsie Thank you so much for the reply! ☺️ We will definitely consider buying one, it would be a dream come true to finally have a good mattress :D It's just a bit hard to get it in Hungary, but we'll see what we can do ☺️

[@amberleigh.indiana]

The door might be gloss? They can turn yellow after some time, and you have re-gloss them

[@oxyjen11]

Hey Lucy, I don't know if I missed it in the video, but what type of paint and colour are you using? Thanks!

[@carole3680]

Paint on, your ideas are so like your home.

[@cherylkavanagh3387]

Looks wonderful, Lucy! Basket of stuffed animals to the nursery?

[@deirdrezoe]

Tof!! Mag ik vragen welke kleur groen dit is? Looks perfectttt 🤩

[@deirdrezoe]

Should have waited till the end. oeps! Sorry!

[@ianasay5127]

Lovely. What is the color on the wall (the muted eucalyptus shade?). As in what is the RGB breakdown of the mix? It looks very similar to 125,152,131.

[@Loepsie]

I talk about the colours at the end of the video! They don't share the RGB anywhere, only other info I have is the colour code is GN 062-04 😅

[@liessas]

@@Loepsie thanks! I'm also looking for a good green, and happen to live near a Gamma. This seems like great option ❤

[@francyfey4646]

Wow, that‘s such a cool DIY! I LOVE the outcome … just one question, why didn‘t you buy a Malm secondhand when you‘d paint it anyway? 😂 Just a thought.

[@Loepsie]

Our car is impossible to transport pre-built furniture in 😭 It's a sedan so nothing fits in the back and we can't attach a trailer either. We didn't realise how annoying that'd be until we tried to buy secondhand furniture when we moved to this house. We've had to rent vans a few times just to pick up a secondhand purchase and for a malm dresser that just isn't worth it 😅 I'd have preferred a secondhand one but I'd have to find a seller willing to deliver it and that's quite challenging

[@francyfey4646]

@@Loepsie makes so much sense ❤️ I drive a Fiat500 - I feel you! 🫶

[@applesz11]

Anyone knows what kind of paint should be used? Thnx!

[@ChelseaSteeb]

I have a feeling they changed the base on those for safety reasons...less tippable

[@Loepsie]

Yeah the whole thing feels much more sturdy and stable. It's heavier too!

[@mel_issa__]

The bottom was changed for safety reasons. Kids used to climb up open drawers and the whole thing would flip over 😮

[@EmilyGOODEN0UGH]

If you put the basket of yoga mats right next to the dresser they will be visibly hidden as you walk into the room?

[@rachelspencer9456]

🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@gustavmielke777]

In some clips you kind of look pregnant 😮

[@demogorgonli]

no sh!t, she literally is over 6 months pregnant...

[@saraviegas2141]

Couldn’t you just get another dresser second hand? Those are everywhere in my country and I see them all the time in second hand apps and websites. Just seems like if you’re going to paint it you might as well use something that doesn’t need to be perfect and it would be way more sustainable

[@P0nyl0ve]

Hmm finding IKEA at the second hand store? I feel like that's not that likely
