You can do a lot of DIY with Ikea pieces. They are affordable, versatile and nice looking. I have started to redo my sewing/sun room. And will be posting photos after I move. (I bought some pieces while I was in Florida for my sun room there.) Now I'm back in KY finishing up on my job. I can't wait to get back and pick up where I left off. So far, I've spent about $200 on three pieces. I got a corner piece, a table, and a 5 drawer cabinet. I am using mine together. But, you can use them separately. I'm also planning on getting one of there 12 cubby shelves. And some curtains for the windows. I love Ikea. They really have some great prices. And you can buy a piece at a time.
