Hi Lydia. I’m not the greatest fan of Ikea’s drawers however I do like their Aneboda drawers as they are great value so I don’t lose any sleep over customising them or them even taking a knock. That said, we’ve had the larger Aneboda drawers for over a year and they’ve held together far better than any other Ikea drawers I’ve ever owned and they all cost more. They are veeeery basic but they’re a bit like a blank canvas and with customisation, you can cover up the plastic drawer facing. Good luck

Hi, i was just wondering what you thought of the quality of these drawers? we popped to ikea to get them at the weekend and i was unsure when we saw them in the flesh, i have made a mistake with some argos drawers before and they fell apart in a few months of use. Very inspired by your customising idea!! I was going to do the same with the aneboda wardrobe to match.
Thanks for your help!

Ellie – yes I will definitely do that x
Kat – I’m sure you can! God knows what the correct term is for them although I’m sure people get the idea!

Oooh, loving this! Well done to ‘the Boyf’ for having the patience to do it. I think you can buy ‘smoothers’ from the wallpaper section in DIY stores…
