So I’ve been promising to do a post about the Ikea Hack for a while now, but um, we’ve been a bit busy…
So this is 4 Trofast units, a piece of plywood, fabric, a Trofast wall unit, an Ikea star light, a scrap piece of lumber, a baby-safe mirror, and a changing pad.
So I basically covered a piece of plywood* in fabric, screwed 3 trofast units to it, screwed another trofast unit to the top, secured that to the wall, added the trofast wall unit, secured it all together, and added in the ikea star light for night time diaper changes, and made little labels for the bins. The labels are the best part, because they help my sleep-deprived brain focus…
*plywood is bigger than trofast units, to accomodate the changing pad, so I secured the bottom units to the front of the board.

Love love love the Trofast…couldn’t live without it and can I just say that I am so incredibly happy for this blessing in your life sweetie. You and Narda have had quite the road to get here and Malka must be over the moon to have baby brother Noah in her life.
Many blessing to you and your sweet family.

Hey, Mel here. OMG, I totally want to take the girls to Sesame Place and meet up with you guys. Unfortunately, Amy’s having surgery on the 8th of June and we won’t be able to travel. We are so bummed! Can’t we do October instead???
