DIY Ikea Vanity Dupe | $100

[@aliese66]

You can also use rubber stoppers instead of glue so it's easier to move later on

[@alissapurplebunnies5955]

That's such a good idea!

[@chicaarana1164]

That’s actually how the Ikea one works. I just bought all of my pieces from Ikea and all it has are rubber stoppers.

[@gabsekanovich1087]

Where do you get the stoppers?

[@iMolikaMenThlang]

That’s what I was saying. Ppl are sooo duhhhhh lol

I'm so happy you posted this. I've been trying to find a cheaper alternative for a vanity for months. This is so much better than spending $300+ on a cheaply built one. I'll definitely be following your tutorial. Thank you so much ❤️

[@2015monay]

I ended up putting a clear acrylic sheet over my vanity top to make it easier to clean when makeup gets on the white table. It also looks so pretty 😌

[@baddiebbeautybox8595]

Nisha Rodriguez Hi...where did you find the clear acrylic sheet ?

[@2015monay]

BaddieB Beautybox I got it right at lowes. I measured the top and then went to lowes to get a sheet cut to the right size. It cost me about $27 for the size of the top of my vanity but it has really extended the life of my vanity because without it, the makeup over time would leave stains from being spilled and some makeup doesn't always clean up right after spilling. Learned that with Anastasia dip brow and thicker consistency foundations.

[@pixelzbuildz2771]

great idea, or a mirror :D

[@chicaarana1164]

I just got mine at Ikea. Currently still has the plastic covering on the table top to protect it while I wait for my marble contact paper from Amazon! It’s an affordable way to make it look stylish while protecting the surface.

[@jrespinoza2506]

What glue did you use ?

[@christinacano4389]

MsShaye H just now seeing this! But VERY good answer. I completely agree 💓💓

[@deimoslyric]

MsShaye H "God" got my mother brutally raped by a family member when she was just a little 8 year old girl but ok.

[@shannh6724]

Kate Wetzel You are 100% wrong. But answer this, did you actually talk to GOD himself? To blame a rape on GOD is NOT cool, its wrong. A sin upon you.

[@sierracruz5961]

Kate Wetzel not even gonna deal with you because you're uneducated. Continue to blame all of your issues on God and not thank him for the good times. Have a nice life 🙂

[@PatrishaLuxe]

I'm soooo doing this ! I move to my new place in September and I needed a cute vanity for the low.

[@KimberlynXO]

Congrats on your new place!

[@daynap.r.2411]

Patrisha LUXE Me too! I was just gonna buy a cheap table at Walmart for $50 but it only had one drawer 😢 I was like I can by the Alexander drawers later on though... but this is perfect!!!

[@PooP-yy5vw]

Patrisha Luxe how tall is this?

[@goodmeme9187]

Poo P i bought this and its really short it’s small and its really hard to open and close because it doesn’t have the metal. I wouldn’t recommend getting also because it breaks easily and I just got it so that’s a bummer. So I just used the e6000 glue to get it to stick together. If I knew I would have just got the original bigger better one from the original website(ikea). I’m pretty sure everyone has different thoughts and feelings about it but this is my opinion

[@dontmovesoslow]

This is so awesome! You don't know how much you help me out trying to make a Christmas present for my wife! Thank you thank you thank you for your DIY tips

[@MaddieLambert]

I just bought the same drawers to make this and they didn’t come w any hardware so i have a bunch of wooden slabs now

[@Shivangi910xoxo]

Awww Maddie you are here

[@mimichibi19]

Just made a purchase right after i watched your video. It's 44.99$ on sale right now, i bought 2 online and applied 2 other coupon codes i found on google. Total 2 drawers cost me 63$. Such a good deal 👌🏻👌🏻 thank you!

[@dementedkitten8810]

Thank you for posting this!! I did this!! and I loved it until my makeup collection started to grow, the drawer bottoms definitely need reinforcement. I recommend adding white caulk or glue in the grooves before you slide the bottom drawer panel in it helped me out a lot! also I used velcro to attach the "table" top to the drawers them easy to remove and easy to move :)

[@jayluv_xo]

Great idea with the Velcro!👍

[@Kittypie1000]

I absolutely love how you didn't cheapen the DIY even though you did do it on a budget. It puts value in the product you are creating vs someone who just slaps something together without thinking about the quality that most viewers want. I love this, great job!

[@julienasser4191]

😌😌😌 OMG THE GO TO IKEA VANITY and LUMIY LAMP FOR MAKEUP !!! PEOPLE are ravingg!!!

[@avakate7747]

THANK YOU!!!! This was so helpful, I’ve been looking for a vanity for my bedroom but they’re all so small with no storage. I found the chest of drawers on amazon then I figured to buy another and make a table. You gave me the solution as to what to use as the top of the desk! Thanks again! Such a great DIY

[@deisicm659]

You're so awsome! I've been needing a vanity but don't wanna spend 300 on something that only has 2 drawers

YOU GO GIRl! IKEA is best vanity Table. 👍👏🙌💄🎊 I"M CRAZY about the Lumiy Lightblade for makeup lighting it sooo soo good. WIN WN Kimberssss

[@nittavanitta9046]

This is perfect for a little girl's room. I plan to do this and add a lighted mirror. She's such a girly girl. great video!

[@DiamondDivaMusic]

I wonder if u could stack the shelves on top of each other to make a mock Ikea tall Alex drawer

[@maddiehernandez3645]

That’s what I’m going to do!

[@evie5003]

Yes. But for the drawer your putting on the bottom dont add the top board so when you stack the other on top it will blend in seamlessly. Then just drill them together and boom!

[@GhosstRyder]

I never knew Michael's had those type of products. That vanity looks great and the best part is the money you saved. I just started organizing my makeup drawers last night with trays and same very pretty glass vases I purchased at the dollar store. Hope you are enjoying your new vanity.

[@emj575]

Thanks for the table top measurements! Got my board. So excited

[@donnasnorthernlights2089]

I love your video! I bought the closet shelf and will b3 taking it to a log cabin in upper Michigan. I'll assemble the vanity there. Question...I'm going to put a sort of heavy lighted makeup mirror on top. Do you think the shelf will lift if not glued down????

[@KimberlynXO]

No, I don’t think it’s going to lift. It should be fine

I love this because I have a vanity my gram gave me when I was like 20 but it's small and doesn't really match my room and I knew I could do something similar but my hubby keeps saying it's not going to look good and now I have video proof that it will look great!

[@Aisha-wn9et]

What’s sad now is that this same drawer is now $70 at Michaels, they changed the name and put out the same one and higher the price smh!

This is exactly what I had been thinking of doing in my not very large bathroom with very little storage! Will have to see if those units will fit, I might have to try to find ones a bit smaller to make it work. Thanks for the inspiration...that was great! Subscribed! ; )

[@_beyourown_boss]

Just a quick question. A lot of people are having problems with Michael’s drawer unit over a periodic time. Do you experience this?

[@KimberlynXO]

I built the vanity almost 3 years ago and I still haven't had any problems with the drawer unit over these 3 years. But I am not rough when using it. If a user usually pulls or closes their drawers super rough or slams/packs makeup in it to the point that it is overly stuffed, then yes it won't last because the base of the drawers is a thin piece of plywood that can't support that kind of use.

[@HOODSSWEETIE]

I never would have thought of that, it turned out beautifully. Thanks for sharing.

[@rellis01]

I just did mine last night. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

Smart! U could probably adjust the height by adding white block to the bottom.

[@Jessa8891]

I wouldn't have glued the top on. It's going to break off moving. The IKEA vanity tops aren't glued or screwed on either. If you were worried about it moving you could have put shelf liners between the top and the drawers.
