"There's a brilliant way to upgrade the VATTENTRÅG boxes that requires nothing more than a roll of chrome silver vinyl. By covering the boxes with this self-adhesive material, you can turn them from boring to gorgeous - eliminating the need to hide them away in a cabinet. Instead, the mirror-like material adds a touch of luxury, while also helping them blend into the room."
"It's a good idea to declutter and organize your space before getting started. Toss or shred old papers you don't need, and get rid of any items that no longer work. Since you'll be using the containers for storage, you want to separate your items into categories and designate a box for each one. Their size is perfect for storing documents, notebooks, extra office supplies, and cords."
IKEA's VATTENTRÅG boxes are sturdy cardboard containers with lids measuring 12.5 inches by 9 inches by 4 inches and costing about $0.89 each. A roll of chrome silver self-adhesive vinyl can cover the exterior to transform the boxes into mirror-like, attractive storage that blends with home décor and allows visible shelving rather than hiding. Declutter and sort items before boxing, tossing or shredding unnecessary papers and grouping belongings by category so each box has a designated purpose. The box dimensions suit documents, notebooks, office supplies, and cords. Unassembled boxes should be measured, cut, and vinyl-applied carefully for a neat finish.
