If you need more inspiration or ideas, go to ikeahack.com - I love to look at the pictures there, too!

Here it is! Luann
You can put the 9 cubies on either side. I would use the Ikea table top for the top.

I think KALLAX is just the new name for the EXPEDIT series. I was just there a couple weeks ago and it appeared to me that they have KALLAX in all the same configurations that EXPEDIT had. I couldn't really see much difference (they still had some EXPEDIT pieces mixed in with their KALLAX display) so I'm not sure if they *just* renamed the series or if they made (or plan to make) more changes than that.

I think the only difference in the two series is that the KALLAX tops and sides are a TOUCH thinner than the EXPEDIT. I think the reasoning was that they make so many that the thinner supports would save alot of lumber. I didnt' think they looks much different and I saw a couple of each side by side... Just an IKEA fan!

I don't think they make all the accessories for the Kallax like they did the Expedit though. My friend was at Ikea on Sunday and said she could tell the Kallax was thinner.

My thought also.

I'm planning an Ikea trip tomorrow, actually....I'll look at the KALLAX again. I think you're right though, a touch thinner on the outside pieces.
