A DIY hack by Dalia Aly involves using two 79.5-inch BILLY bookcases turned on their sides to create a customized media console, costing only $540 compared to the $2,000 alternatives. The stylish walnut finish required no painting. A unique feature is the use of wooden bowls from H&M Home as feet, enhancing the look while supporting the console. Dalia used these bowls innovatively by drilling holes to cover the existing BILLY legs, achieving the desired aesthetic without compromising stability.

The addition of wooden bowls from H&M Home as feet for the console enhanced its aesthetics, providing an upscale look for just $25.
