Ikea Hack: Tarva Dresser Turned Printers Console Style Buffet

Our house lacks in the storage department. So, I have to get creative with storage solutions. I realized that I needed more storage for dining and kitchen supplies along with other things like craft supplies. So, I decided to get rid of my old buffet that lacked any storage at all and put in a new one!

I used two Tarva dressers from Ikea to make the buffet. Here's what they look like when fully assembled.





I then painted them white, trimmed the legs, and added some trim in the form of pine boards.





Next was to make a template for the drawer pulls. I ended up putting 4 pulls on per drawer.





I then secured the pulls on, along with the stained trim.





And that's it! Here's the after of them. This came together perfectly and offers ample storage that I needed so bad!





The drawers fit paper towels, plates, napkins, candles, cups....everything I needed. Plus, a ton of craft supplies.





The top is deep and wide and is perfect for behind the table.
