IKEA Hack.

(our mid century)

A friend sent me the link to this amazing IKEA hack yesterday from the blog Our Mid Century. I was so impressed that I had to share it. The Karlstad sofa is one of IKEA's most popular designs, but you often hear people lamenting the leg and slipcover options. This couple took matters into their own hands with amazing results.

Their couch looks just like Crate and Barrel's Petrie Sofa to me, and the hack was made for half the price. And just in case you're not into the white sofa look, they recently had a new slipcover made for their frame.

I would be very interested to hear where you got your sofa legs from as they look great and then secondly how you added the buttons/studs to the cushions? Many thanx

They have the Midcentury legs (called Waddell) at Ace Hardware for a GREAT price. There is also a site called "prettypegs" that has more expensive colored ones.
