Beautiful job. Love the design on the doors. The wallpaper is a nice touch. During these inflationary times, your DIY projects are a real aid to saving a lot of greenbacks.

[@writerlisakaye]

I love the staggered fluting. What a great look.

[@mimistans7715]

I love it! I used to build cabinets. My two married daughters were the unfortunate recipients of my love of building cabinets. 🥰 I have since lost my love of making things though.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

That is awesome! I want to learn how to build!

[@valerienie3060]

I love the staggering of the trim

[@phillipj.moodie3077]

Watching from Melbourne Australia. Been a customer since the time they opened their first store in Melbourne. The products offer top value for money.

[@LoriM222]

I love it so much, Christina!! You have such an eye for beautiful style!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you so much!!

[@vickiebelk635]

I love the way it looks!! The cabinet was so plain before you did this makeover. Great job!!!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@annettehalliday8892]

You make my morning Christina, that looks amazing 👏👏👏

[@DaraStarrTucker]

So pretty. And thank you for talking about the cost.

[@frenchiettc]

I really love this Christina, I’m really into this wood look with designs in the front so I may use something similar for a project I’m doing now. Thanks for another great video!

[@Leasola38]

Love this idea! I’m going to look on FB market place and see if I can’t find one of these super cheap!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

That is a great idea. They used to be $40 just a few years ago.

[@Leasola38]

@@ChristinaMuscari I’m about to age myself, but many many moons ago that cabinet was only $19.00. IKEA was the place you went to when you were young or in college starting out with nothing! It was cheap and you could furnish a whole 1 bedroom apartment for about $300. I miss the 90’s!

[@jeanohara6179]

Love the front texture!

[@diywithtarnya]

I have these cabinets in my studio. I still have not done anything with them. You made it look amazing! Love this one.

[@LillyMoonPaintOfficial]

Great hack!!! 🔥 love the design

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you! 😊

[@id5girl]

Great idea! Simple and fun as well as practical. Love the trim detail although it would also look nice (and shave a few more dollars) if you only go partial way across. Thanks!

[@ReinventedDelaware]

It's beautiful Christina! Thanks for the breakdown of the costs - prices are getting so high! Agh!!

[@universuliubirii7934]

The sculptural furniture is the new trend and looks great. 👍❤️❤️

[@cathyjackson5959]

Love this!!!❤️💫❤️ The front is sooo unique yet simple to do. Great hack!! Even for the legs!!! And love the paper on the back inside!!! So Elegant❤️✨❤️

[@annenelson5165]

What she said 😍

[@annewarren1157]

This looks amazing, I’m so going to try it, thanks so much for sharing!

[@kayvillanueva7766]

I definitely like this one! Thank you for sharing. ❤️

[@flipperdoo22]

OMG! I have to say, this is one of the best ikea hacks I’ve seen! ❤It’s very well done and looks amazing! Going to ikea today to try this. Thanks for sharing!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks so much!!

[@dawnrene3878]

Amazing as usual! Thanks for the Butcher Block Bonus too!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thanks! Free bacon!

[@tulips212]

Love the design! You have inspired me! I have one cabinet, on the hunt for a second (I always buy second hand), and want to use them in my dining room to hide away toys. I’ll be painting them green. Love your videos. Always great tips.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you! Good luck.

[@nesamary]

Great hack, I love it.

[@elainev670]

The cabinet is so pretty after your makeover! I love the art déco style. More vidéos like these pls

[@darinakalinova2180]

This is really lovely. Great job.

[@purplewombat1923]

Gorgeous!

[@jenniferbartlett5812]

Absolutely love it!!

[@maryshobby5790]

Great design! I will definitely try this look on one of my piece.

[@eisar1852]

Beautiful!

[@tyeshiakirk4093]

LOVE this so much!

[@sophies6767]

Can you make a video on how to choose good pieces that have the potential to be restored for beginners? And what kinds of materials should be avoided.

[@sarahhansen762]

Wow. Great job.

[@Leftoutknitter]

Pro tip; you can stack and cut those pieces at one time, also ensuring the same cut.

[@user-bm4sm9gp7m]

Word of advice but a table saw for between $100-200 and cut your own strips! I do that for my accent walls and other projects and you can go a step further and get a cheap or used planer

[@janebentrott5984]

Great project!! So pretty!

[@candacewalsh8726]

It’s a GREAT hack! 😍

[@humeragondal2135]

amazing 😍

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you! 😊

[@brolybsavage]

Will command strips work for the flutes

[@madzabinga8382]

Do you do consulting work? I have a plain unfinished pine dresser, but is has a unique shape. I don't even know where to start. I just want to send you a picture and you tell me exactly what to do with it. Ha!

[@mybestdiylife2229]

Love this, especially what you did to the doors!! I have the same one assembled and waiting for me to create something. Since the top and bottom have the slightly raised side panels (where you needed to put the washers), I was thinking of maybe sanding down the raised part and even putting a little filler where the screws are. Do you think that would work out well?

[@kathleenhernandez2292]

It's beautiful

[@ChristinaMuscari]

Thank you!

[@kellyhorner6301]

Did u keep it for urself or sell it? If you sold it what did you list it for?

[@audreyneo6059]

Nice to watch..thumb up

[@ellaaltman2137]

LOVE!

[@user-if4zl5ei3p]

Стильно. Stylish.

[@Jjlavids]

Within one month my favorite espresso beans went from 6.99 to 12.99 What isn’t going up? 😆

[@spk7816]

good job

[@ghadeeralshareef1557]

Woww

[@meerkatnip892]

Stained wood is not protected in any way. Grabbing the wooden doors for opening, placing stuff on top, any moisture will likely lead to grubby stains. I'd always recommend a clear finish on top. One of the pains of the cabinets for me are the screws that are visible from the side. I don't know why they construct it like this, with the sides sticking up and the top in between the side pieces.

[@professionalpolishman589]

Nice

[@NewSummitInc]

Hi , Christina this is Margi in Phoenix!

[@romanhed]

Any idea how many 4-foot lengths you bought for this? My 4 Ivars are assembled and since these are only available online at Home Depot, I'm trying to see how many I'd need to order. Many dankes!

[@ChristinaMuscari]

I can't remember. 😬 But they are in store if you want to go check them out.

[@nicoll2106]

helppp I am looking for a cabinet with a slat design but then in a sunrise shape. I looked EVERYWHERE. Has anyone seen it?

[@Ashmuff]

The caninet is now $130. 😮

[@mascottie]

I refuse to do any ikea hacks or to ever acquire a piece of their furniture. Not even for free. You did a beautiful job as always though!

[@cabinvibesebaystore8956]

New sub! Liked 🙏👍🚀

[@rubychew6535]

The item can be used as unisex for either girl or boy.

[@ChristinaMuscari]

For sure!

[@Mrs_Plant_Potter]

That IVAR cabinet is now $130 😅😅😅😅😅😭😭😭😭

[@JButler661]

Love it!
