Cane Webbing Covered IVAR Room Divider
Starting off with an idea from Ikea themselves.
This gorgeous cane webbing-covered room divider is a great natural way to create folding screens.
They have simply fixedcane webbingonto Ivar side units and then added some small brass hinges to connect them together.
For a great tutorial on fitting cane to IVAR side panels have a look at thisSeptember Editpost.
All you need is some fabric and staples.
Im imagining a nice bit of tweed fabric to fit in nicely with our cosy front room.
It will also give you a room divider that would be a talking point in any room!
All you need is somemacrame cord, which it’s possible for you to get in various colours!
DIY Sunburst Pattern IVAR Room Divider
Dust off your woodwork skills for this one!
You dont have to stick to the design they have created here.
Why not come up with your own repeatable pattern to fill the gaps in the Ivar frame?
It doesnt have to be complicated if youre not used to crafting!
Paper Screen Room Divider
A room divider doesnt need to be a folding screen.
This fixed screen is a great way to use the Ivar side units to semi-permanently divide up a room.
What I love about this hack is that its very simple.
They have screwed five panels together and then taped wallpaper over one side.
Even just by fixing solid pieces of plywood and creating an all-wood solid screen.
I love this dark-stained wood andJapanese-style fabriccombo.
They make a wonderful room divider and storage/display combination.
Even the metal cross-struts at the back of the unit dont look out of place!
Using gold vinyl sheeting, you could recreate this stunning gold room divider over some Ikea IVAR panels.
Alternatively, you could fix some hardboard over the panels and then stickself-adhesive gold vinylto it.
All you would need to do is glue or pin them on!
We really love how much you could do with a simple Ivar side unit and a bit of imagination!
