ᐅ What are some ideas for adding colorful touches to Ikea Hemnes furniture?

Created on: 1 Apr 2021 10:17

Hello everyone, I am looking for creative and practical ideas on how to add color to the Ikea Hemnes furniture series. I am especially interested in techniques or materials that work well to brighten up the typical white or wood-colored Hemnes furniture without losing their original character. Are there any experiences with painting techniques such as glazes, chalk paint, or adhesive films? How can you give the furniture a lively appearance while keeping it harmonious at the same time? Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

I prefer subtle colors that still feel lively.

That sounds reasonable. Too bold often becomes outdated quickly. It's fine to be brave and add small accents, then observe how they change the room.

One more tip: If you color the drawers, you can use matching fabric strips inside as an accent. When opened, this adds a subtle layer of color to the furniture without being permanently visible.

I think that’s a good idea. Fabric adhesive tape is a simple and reversible method—if the paint ever appears too intense.

I would like to add that when using fabrics, it is important to use good-quality adhesives and appropriate cleaning methods. Especially indoors, it is crucial that the materials do not start to develop unpleasant odors or begin to detach.

As a quick solution for adding color variety, I recommend additional decorative pillows or rugs that match the color scheme of the Hemnes design. This way, the furniture remains intact, but the room gains more color.
