Rather than fork out on a pricey drinks cabinet, the savvy homeowners instead decided to give a £29 Ikea Kallax shelving unit a very modern update.

Taking to TikTok, they shared a short clip of their “easy IKEA Kallax transformation.”

In the before photos, the Ikea unit is just plain back and in desperate need of a bit of character.

But the clever couple were more than up to the job and used wood paneling to give it an impressive stylish update, which includes new additional wooden surface top, shelves and bottle storage system.

And it wasn’t long before social media users took to the comments section to praise the stylish drinks cabinet.

“Yaaaaas Queen,” praised one.
