Ikea hacking is cool, you know. Conceptually. It's thinking outside the flat box (not my pun, unfortunately). It's DIY design for the people. I am always on wait for new Ikea hacker posts.

And then there was that DIY workshop I attended, Rosh Bakir. I should really be posting about it separately. So for the time, let's just say it's totally motivational, and puts you in constant search of home improvement projects.

So in short, when my sister wanted to hack her Antonius high unit (made of two frames and 10 baskets) for baby stuff storage, I was hooked. What we basically needed was a frame, to protect the inside from dust.

For the frame we used something called multi-wall polypropylene sheets. If you are in Israel, you know it under the generic term Polygal, and you can buy it in office supplies stores. Having searched the web extensively for an English term, I tend to think it's not much of a consumer product elsewhere, which is a pity, because it's so easy to use, versatile, colorful and inexpensive.

Now you should go to Flickr to see the project photos. If you are interested in more details, come back here and read the rest.
