Flisat stools Ikea hacks

We love a good IKEA hack, a little imagination and you’ll soon rock your own unique piece. Today we’re looking at IKEA stool hacks. Take one humble stool and add a little touch of DIY magic for a pint-sized seat that’s as individual as your kid.

We love the pop of colour that’s been given to the FLISAT stools via Ikea (pictured above) with the easy addition of the STICKAT stool cover, Or get creative with some padding and fabric to make a wonderfully playful, squishy seat to suit your own decor style.

A simple lick of chalk paint and you can create this fun idea via Fraeulein Klein – the only downside is a chalky bottom if it’s not rubbed out properly before your poppet sits!

Lastly, how cool is this IKEA stool hack using the Bekvam stool? A little bit more involved than a touch of paint but totally worth it. Just follow these simple instructions via Happy Grey Lucky and your little one will soon have their very own toddler learning tower – some people are just so clever!!
