DIY Inspiration and Tips

When it comes to customizing the RAW Collection, the possibilities are endless. Whether you're looking to refresh a single piece or transform an entire room, these DIY furniture tips and ash wood customization ideas will help you make the most of your projects. With the right approach, you can create beautiful, personalized furniture that adds a unique touch to your home décor.

1. Get Creative with Paint and Stain

Customizing the RAW Collection with paint or stain is one of the easiest and most impactful ways to make your furniture truly your own. Whether you opt for bold colors to create a striking statement or soft, muted tones for a subtle, elegant effect, the possibilities are endless.

For this DIY project, we partnered with our friends at Klint Colors to give an IKEA Kallax cabinet a stunning makeover. They chose OTTO 100 RAW furniture legs and Bill 40 RAW knobs, painting the cabinet exterior in an elegant shade of green ( K115), the interior in a vibrant green (K66), and the legs and knobs in the playful terecotta (K21). Once painted, simply attach the legs using our universal fitting plate to achieve a beautifully polished, custom look.

TIP: Don’t hesitate to mix and match different knobs and handles from the RAW Collection to create an eclectic, personalized design. For example, combine the sleek Frank handle with the rustic Lilian 65 knob to add character and flair to your cabinets and drawers. This approach is perfect for those looking to infuse their space with unique home décor inspiration that reflects their individual style.

Keep it RAW: If you prefer a more natural aesthetic, you can leave the wood unfinished. However, keep in mind that the color may develop a warmer, more yellowish tone overtime, adding to the wood's natural charm.   

2. Personalize with Wooden Panels

For a truly custom look, consider adding Fluted Ivar Panels RAW to your IKEA furniture. These wooden panels are a fantastic way to elevate the style of your furniture with minimal effort. These panels are incredibly easy to attach to existing doors with wood glue, making them a perfect DIY project such as DIY bed frames. Each set includes six panels—enough to cover two doors—plus four extra-long screws for mounting knobs or handles. Adding these panels can instantly transform the look of your furniture, whether you're going for a modern, sleek design or a more rustic, textured appearance. 

In our Ivar hack DIY collection, we took an IKEA IVAR cabinet, added fluted panels, and paired it with OTTO 100 RAW legs and Bill 40 RAW knobs. We went bold, painting the panels in a trendy caramel pink, and gave the legs and knobs a splash of Henna for contrast. All that’s left is to fix it up with our universal fitting plate, and voilà—a piece that’s as stylish as it is unique!

3. Get a BOLD RAW look

Sometimes, the simplest changes can make the biggest impact. This hack is all about balancing the natural beauty of wood with a pop of bold color for a striking, yet minimalist design.

In this hack, @alittlegirlsmom started with a natural wood IKEA IVAR cabinet and added a touch of flair by pairing it with Siri 160 RAW legs. The legs were painted in a vibrant bubblegum pink, while the cabinet itself was left in its raw, untreated form to showcase the wood's natural beauty. After painting, she attached the legs to the cabinet using our universal fitting plate, creating a bold, yet refined look that’s sure to stand out.

4. Playful Blue IKEA Kids Room Hack

Transforming your child’s room can be both fun and functional, especially when you mix playful colors with practical design. This hack adds a fresh, lively touch to kids' furniture, perfect for creating a space they’ll love.

For this project, @dromhuset1 started with an IKEA IVAR cabinet and an IKEA Trofast storage unit. Both pieces were painted in a cheerful shade of blue, bringing a vibrant energy to the room. To complete the look, she added our OTTO 100 RAW legs and Bill 40 RAW knobs, which she painted with a simple blue spray-paint finish. Finally, she attached the legs and knobs using our universal fitting plate, giving these classic IKEA pieces a fun, custom look that’s perfect for a kid’s room makeover.
