Our living room recently went through some changes when we decided to get a new TV. Even though we had a few core pieces, it was in need of a living room makeover. Ben had his heart set on a 65” curved large TV, which I initially thought might be a bit too big for the space. But since we wanted the living room to be the main area for watching TV, w...
The first step in designing your media center is to measure the wall or area where you plan to place it. This will help you determine the size and number of BESTA units you need. I started by measuring the wall in the living room to make sure that the cabinets would fit the entire length without leaving any gaps on the sides. Once I had my measurem...
The layout of your media center will depend on the size and shape of your space, as well as the type of TV that you have. You will also want to keep in mind how much extra storage you’ll need for the entire piece. It’s a good idea to sketch out your room and design on paper or use a design tool to get a better visual of how everything will fit toge...
The BESTA system has a virtual planner available online, which I accessed through my IKEA account. You can get to the IKEA BESTA Planner here. The plannerallows you to specify the size of your room and add any additional elements you want to visualize the space.
I used the printed shopping list to pick and purchase all of the necessary items at the IKEAwarehouse. Thankfully we have an IKEA store close to our home, but if you don’t you can see if an IKEA nearby offers shipping options. IKEA was having a sale that day and I was able to purchase everything for the media center for just under $500. While that ...
Follow the instructions provided by IKEA to assemble your BESTAunits. Ben and I spent a couple of hours putting the media console together once I got everything home. Although it wasn’t a difficult assembly process, it did take a long time. When we finally placed the media console against the wall, it fit perfectly and looked like it was made for t...
Add Hardware to Your BESTA Media Console
Once your BESTA units are assembled, it’s time to customize them to fit your needs and style. For example, you can add beautiful hardware to the drawers and door fronts that match your home decor style. In order to get a modern classic look for our media center, I wanted to use hardware with clean lines and a sleek finish. After doing some research, I ultimately decided on matte black square bar pullsfor the cabinets. These drawer pullshad the best shape to create a casual, modern feel that I...
Paint Your BESTA Units
Another way to personalize your IKEA BESTA cabinets is by painting them. If you want to give your media console a unique look, you can choose different colors to completely customize the whole thing. Just make sure to properly prepare the surface with primer and use high-quality paint for a durable finish. Choose a paint color that compliments your space and other decor or furniture. You can also use chalk paint on furniture if you want a more rustic look. Related: How to Paint IKEA Laminate...
