Ikea MALM - Chest of 2 drawers, white - 40x55 cm

Product Information

After the drawers were dry, it was time to add the t-bar handles and we measured the dimensions of the drawers and carefully marked where to drill holes with a pencil.

And Lyndsey Mowat, 23, a sales support assistant from Berkshire, UK, managed to spruce up a couple of Ikea Malm bedside tables to give them a stunning modern look. Driving innovation to use wood in smarter ways by designing all products from the very beginning to be reused, refurbished, remanufactured, and eventually recycled. Lyndsey found inspiration from her social channels, where she noticed other users were upcycling their furniture to save on costs. Sustainability: Repurposing, upcycling and painting Ikea furniture is an environmentally friendly way to reduce waste and extend the life of products. We don’t allow any wood in our supply chain from forest areas that are illegal or contain high conservation values or from forest areas with social conflict.IKEA requires all suppliers to source wood from more sustainable sources (FSC-certified or recycled wood).

I knew I wanted to paint them green to bring out the colors in our rug and wardrobes, but I also wanted to add detail and pattern. A significant portion of their wood is sourced from sustainable forests, and they aim to use more sustainable materials in products. The beauty of a Malm bedside table hack is that the nature of the design means you can create anything.

Thanks to its simple and streamlined design, the Malm bedside table is one of IKEA's most popular and versatile products.
