Suitable accessories & foils for your IKEA furniture

We love IKEA and yet we still want to personalise our home. You think that doesn't go together? Yes, and how! Welcome to the world of IKEA hacks.


Creative IKEA hacks for children

Stylish furnishing highlights can be conjured up from simple IKEA furniture, especially in the children's room. You can decorate according to your child's personal interests and create a dreamy children's room with simple means and clever IKEA hacks. The minimalist Scandinavian design of IKEA furniture provides the perfect basis for unusual children's room ideas. And you don't have to limit yourself to children's furniture, because you can also transform the real classics from IKEA into special play furniture. Do you still have an old BILLY shelf in your study that you no longer need? With a creative IKEA hack, it's great fun to play with in the children's room.


Original IKEA hacks made in a flash

Of course, there are many great examples of elaborate IKEA hacks that will turn your child's room into something really special. After all, you can achieve a lot with colourful paints and varnishes as well as skilful drilling and hammering. But you don't have to bring a lot of time and craftsmanship to make your home more individual. At Limmaland, we offer you very simple solutions with our high-quality adhesive films to personalise your IKEA furniture to your liking. Whether you want to spice up your chest of drawers, old wall shelf or second-hand play kitchen - you'll find the right ideas at Limmaland.

Our numerous designs enchant every children's room with style and create completely new play worlds. Little heroes, animal lovers and racing drivers will get their money's worth.


Environmentally friendly upcycling with IKEA hacks

The great thing about IKEA hacking is that you can create something completely new from used and perhaps even unloved pieces of furniture. After all, you don't always have to buy new furniture to give your child's room an exciting makeover. With a little creativity and our child-friendly stickers, you can conjure up real highlights from existing products. You can also look around for used IKEA furniture and products on classified ad portals or flea markets. With your IKEA hacks, you can remove any signs of use from the previous owner in no time at all. This will save you money - and protect the environment.
