I am planning to carry out some DIY projects involving Ikea Hemnes furniture and would like to know: Which DIY projects are particularly recommended for Ikea Hemnes? I am especially interested in ideas that go beyond simple modifications and provide real added value in functionality or design without completely altering the basic structure. The projects should also be feasible with a manageable amount of craftsmanship. Does anyone have experience with specific modifications or upgrades to Hemnes and can offer concrete advice?

For Hemnes, inserts to increase shelf space are highly recommended. Especially for the shelves, this can be easily achieved with simple wooden boards and clips. This makes the furniture more practical without much effort.

I have personally painted Hemnes dressers with chalk paint to create writable note surfaces in the office. This was a great DIY project because it enhanced the functionality of the furniture and suited the room well. However, patience is important when sanding, as the surface can become uneven otherwise.

Replacing simple handles with decorative metal or leather ones is also highly recommended – it significantly changes the overall appearance.

Internal reinforcements, such as additional battens or brackets, help to make the Hemnes modules more stable. For shelves, metal angles can also be installed to support more weight. This is especially useful for larger or heavily used furniture.
