IKEA Hack: 10 ways to DIY makeover IKEA LATT children's table set

I'm deeply amazed and inspired by the number of brilliant ideas to makeover IKEA LATT children's table set! As much I would love to try them all, I decided on a monochrome theme to match our living hall and used 3 main materials - paint, fabric and acrylic sheet.

Being a big fan of IKEA, I'm stoked to be part of the 2016 IKEA Blogger Program. This program runs over 4 months and I'll be taking on one different task each month to create useful, interesting and fun home fix ideas. 

For this month, I need to do something crafty! Oh yay, my favourite!

LATT Children's Table Set Makeover

With Emma's room revamp well underway, I decided to update one of her IKEA pieces - the LATT children's table. It costs S$39.90 and is one of the cheapest children's table around.
