EXTREME IKEA HACK!!! DIY Apothecary Buffet Cabinet | The Diaries of DIY Danie

[@DIYDanie]

*SIDE NOTE! I also want to add that the reason I added the small 1x6 lumber on the insides was because I wanted Jess to have the option to keep each unit separate, should she choose to move them in the future! Works great as one unit or two!

[@b.walker5955]

Oh thank you...I was hopeful you thought of that! Because these units are forever keepers! Would hate to see her attempt a stain match/wood grain match. And you know the way things are shrinking you may not be able to buy a 1 x 6 in the future. 7/8ths by 5 7/8ths may be all she can find. ba ha ha! : ) Most thoughtful for you to have done the extra work.

[@lou1061]

Helloooo! Sorry for my terrible english ( i'm ,french,nobody IS perfect!) You said that you struggle to drill in the right place ,i Did to but y bought a Magic product ( around 7$from china) called" Center Drill Bit Set Self Centering Hinge Tapper Core Hole Puncher Woodworking Tools" you Can find it on Amazon to,it make it so easier :) thanks for you're inspiration,bye:)

[@b.walker5955]

@@lou1061 I realize you didn't write that comment to me...but I wanted to encourage you, ANYONE who can speak, write, and exchange in more than one language is indeed PERFECT. No need to apologize for that level of skill you have! Bravo! Well done. And how nice of you to suggest a handy tool. My husband owns one similar for driving screws. It holds the screw, and the shaft of the holder recedes back towards the drill as the screw is driven in. He loves it and I think he needs your tool treasure you found. Merci Mon Ami.

Wow! Great looking piece of IKEA reno!!

[@Binteh]

I was rolling my eyes because everyone claims their Ikea hack "is the best/most epic" and that saying kinda loses its meaning. But... Yeah... you're right... this is by far the best Ikea hack I've seen so far.

[@erinluijkx6788]

same!!! well done!

[@StephanieGraska]

For extra points, you could utilize the false fronts at the bottom for short roll outs too. That would require building out 2 drawers with casters, bit would be an ideal place for storing things like wrapping paper. Great work Danie!!

[@TheBarnyardChicken]

You could also put them back to back put a solid top on it potentially add casters to the bottom and have a rolling Island unit that would also be super cool

[@cindyroman-daversa9194]

and once you can roll them out of the way have a hidden tiny door in the wall and a safe room behind it... no one would think to look behind a low cabinet to find you.

[@Panthia_Poe]

You are brilliant!! OMG!! It just so happens my husband and I are redoing our livingroom and have a huge wall to fill. I've always wanted one of those type pieces, but never really envisioned one in my home. I just new when I saw one, I wanted it. We have a huge area Mark was going to make furniture for, he makes built in furniture for our entire home. This DIY would be easy since he has more tools & is set up for building big furniture pieces. He made a CNC machine from scratch- from ground up.. but neither of us had such a vision as you did!! I'm loving your channel and hoping to get many more great ideas!!

[@SandraNelson063]

It makes the whole room look more "finished". It also HUGELY bumps up the necessary storage. That unit will hold the important family papers, the good cutlery, sets of napkins, tableclothes, the address books, warrantees, tape of all sorts, photo albums. It will become the family treasure chest. Win win!

This is phenomenal. I was skeptical of how the faux split drawers would look at first, but she was 100% right that continuing the groove on the top & bottom helped complete the effect, & the fact that the dark stain made them look deeper made it perfect. Incredible creativity & execution.

[@SharonCullenArt]

Beautiful job. As an artist I have dreamed of having an apothecary cabinet. But I am keeping my eyes peeled for one. I found one a state away, but I don’t feel like the 10 hour round trip drive. It was a steal. Like $325. This was great. I probably would have taken the scoring down again 3 cuts vertically and one across to make the little drawers like you see in a library card index. This was excellent and looks great in your dining room. Bravo. You popped up on my recommended list so I am gonna check out a few more vids. And I don’t understand why anyone would give this a thumbs down at all. Although those losers don’t realize it still does just as much good for your ranking as a thumbs up! Ha!

You have all of my respect, but I will never do this, I got stressed thinking about all the work you put into it, but it looks so amazing. You have my full admiration.

[@LeaveBritneyalone580]

Just an idea,you could create a drawer underneath the cabinets to add some extra storage. It turned out amazing,i kinda want to do it for myself now

[@chrisbaier6252]

I saw an IKEA hack for that for kitchen cabinets. I'm going to retro-fit that into my existing IKEA cabinets kick-space for cookie-pan storage.

[@facetiousfemme]

That’s just plain old beautiful. Well done! That trick with making the drawers look like two is perfect!

[@moniquekyahlovewilson2374]

Wow! Perhaps you could add dividers in each draw so that it not only looks like two draws but functions like two! It's sooooo beautiful Danny!

[@Sea1Sun]

Most definitely impressive! I really admire how you brought the look of the individual drawers that gives that specific flair of an eye catching, authentic, detailed , full priced furniture piece.

[@mandiekins316]

Loooooove this idea!!! If she didn’t need them to stay separate, I’d add a more detailed “skirt” that was one long solid piece and some trim work to the bottom to make it look like it’s one long a$$ piece of furniture 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Hello Denise Nolen, 😊 how are you?

[@LambentLark]

Nice project! Only thing I would have done different is, I would have made a template for setting up the drawer pulls and file card. That way, you only have to measure once vs. 12 times. Laziness, make it work for ya!

[@chrisbaier6252]

yup, same thought, Make a template for the location of the drawer pulls and tag holders. (actually, it was 24 sets of drawer pulls! - that’s 48 items) I'm the person who would do the first 23 perfect, then mis-measure the 24th one. :-\

[@ChazEvansdale]

That is a fantastic looking IKEA hack. You win the internets for today Danie! I feel the best hacks always come with paint or stain. The easiest way to totally change the look of something is paint/stain. The other easy way to totally change the look/vibe is simply moving furniture around. It always helps to know how to clean/organize/decorate as well. How to win at all of it with a new look? DIY + Paint/stain + move furniture around + decorate (with a friend... who is amazing at decorating)! - Or be DIY Danie!

marvymaxee yes I wonder what her take home was

[@KG-yz7tr]

You must get ripped off a lot if you think the labor for that is worth 6k.

[@Kistilan]

@@KG-yz7tr It's at least $600, probably $1K. I think quoting $1500 using $600 Ikea Furniture and $100 stain/pulls and 1x6 spacer boards would be about right. 10-15 hours work at $800ish take-home.

[@rosemali3022]

@@Kistilan You are totally selling her short. The fact that it's a custom build and she did delivery and set up already raises your estimate by $100- $300 bucks. I think $2500 would be a fairer price. Especially since it's not in production, and is utilizing a lot of expertise and tools.

[@Kistilan]

@@rosemali3022 I'm a short seller. The fact that she did delivery and set up doesn't raise my estimate, just your estimate. :-)

[@mmariemarkel7482]

Agreed!! It was epic and you would never know what it started as. I totally swooning at the finished project,but am not a fan of the stain color. I think it would be awesome if you used something with a reddish undertone. TFS

[@WrenMcNally]

It turned out lovely. I ADORE apothecary cabinets and this gives me hope that someday I may have my own. I think if I was to do it I would choose something that I could make them look more square as opposed to rectangular just for my own preference. I would also make the cut outs in between even darker with some black paint. I would use a furniture wax over top of the stain to add more age and I would make little paper pieces to go in the slots. Maybe just with some nice numbers on them on tea stained paper with some nice old style script. Also your lavender hair with the black lips rocks.

[@MM-Iconoclast]

Some other ideas: Instead of black, just a slightly darker stain in the grooves. Also you can make more grooves (like divide the ones in the vid into four small squares) - would be a lot more hardware and work, but would look very legit. Lastly, you could find an oak stain (like a light honey color) in a matte finish that would more closely mimic the color of an actual apothecary cabinet (and in that case, be verrry careful not to go too dark in the grooves - just a shade darker than the honey color). Here's the color, more or less: tinyurl.com/rvw992w Oh - and you can put paper labels in the hardware, and also consider the one where the 'drawer' pull is attached to the label insert - looks very legit. Here are two examples I found on Amazon (cheap too!): tinyurl.com/vbn3voj and tinyurl.com/wvesg5g

[@WrenMcNally]

@@MM-Iconoclast You are completely right! Black would be too dark. I would even go as far as to pre scuff the furniture, add some dents ect to make it have even more character. I really like the drawer pulls you listed. It would make sense back then if you were spending all this time cutting and attaching all these tiny drawers that you would not want to waste time attaching a pull and a plate separately. I started looking an antique cabinets and it got me thinking....all those little drawers....it would be like a treasure hunt for someone who had never opened it before. The wide drawers made to appear smaller are much more practical.

[@MM-Iconoclast]

@@WrenMcNally Actually, the reason I suggested the attached pulls/label-plates is not time-saving, but rather because to me they look more legit - but to each their own taste, of course. Also, making smaller faux 'drawers' makes it look more legit as well, as does using oak-colored stain, particularly with a golden tint. While Dani's version looks super-nice, I think it could be done in a way that looks closer to the originals.

[@dallaspymm6924]

This is one of the coolest DIYs I have ever seen. Amazing job.

[@shant2464]

A little tip on speeding up the drilling of the holes for the handles and card holders...create a template from some thin plywood, the size of a drawer front. Then measure and drill the holes in there. Overlay the template on each drawer front making sure to line up the top and one of the sides with the top and side of the drawer front. Then drill through the plywood holes into the draw front. They will all be lined up vertically and horizontally. I did this to install cool sleek hardware on a builder-basic bathroom vanity cabinet and it worked out great. Good luck.

[@DonJoyce]

Your craftmanship is awesome. TBS....You worked with what you had: Cheap Ikea knotty pine. A darker stain, some protective varnish and shiny brassy would have made these epic
