IKEA KLUBBO Hacks

I think this IKEA Klubbo coffee table is really good looking for the price:

And it's even better if you put some love into it. I've come across some really good hacks!

Jordan from Oh Happy Day spray painted the legs of her Klubbo gold.. WHAT a difference that made!





If you spray paint the legs gold or brass, you could put these casters on it and it would be AMAZING!



Kelly from Simply Kelly turned her Klubbo into an ottoman:



I was brainstorming some other ideas that you could do with this inexpensive coffee table. It would look cool if you had the top lacquered in a color.

Another idea I had was to cover the top in a faux ostrich leather, like this:

    I've thought about this all day after your post and I think I'm going to go for it. I have a distressed camel leather hide I've been hanging on to and I think that + the brass legs will equal our new coffee table.

    Bryn--Do you know how to do this gold to the legs? I.e. what spray paint to use? I checked Oh Happy Day website w/ no luck...Thought I'd tap your genius decorating brain!
    Thanks, Keegan

    I really like the idea of turning it into an ottoman. Pretty clever. And you can have fun with the fabric options.
