Materials: Expedit bookcase 2X2, Micke desks
Description: My loving husband was annoying me to get a bookcase to place his precious books in our office, nothing a quick trip to our local IKEA can’t solve!
We already had the MICKE double desk, so i bought a second one but the small one, and only assembled the top and left side (no drawer).
At the hardware store I bought corner braces and mending plate, and also short wood screws (short so they won’t go through the whole desk)
I assembled the second MICKE desk to the first with the corner braces ( I used 2) and the EXPEDIT bookcase on top of that.
It’s that simple!
