2nd Floor Living took two IKEA Lack tables and created a West Elm style Parsons cube side table using only liquid nails. For less than $20, she knocked off a $150 table.
I think you could use the same technique to create a chunky version of Crate and Barrel's new stackable Mimic Cubes.

That's a very nifty idea!
liquid nails? wow, i didn't realize that existed. where have i been?
I was just eyeing these cubes last weekend! Cant wait to try this out!
Both excellent ideas and I really think I will use both ideas in my house! The table idea FOR SURE. Thanks for sharing!
Ha - these are awesome! I love the lack line - it is so clean and chic all on it's own, and infinitely adaptable. I have to try some of these ideas out. And if it goes wrong, who cares! Not much $$ wasted.
Love this post, and the "Lack hack" link you gave! I have three Lack tables in our living room and I've started to get tired of them. This post helped me to see that they can be design-worthy and beautiful! Awesome!
Ah, you've really got me thinking about possible uses for Lack. I used to buy tonnes of stuff from Ikea, but somehow recently I've been telling myself I should be investing in more grown-up pieces instead. Time for a fresh look, methinks!
