We hacked the IKEA Variera box with handle into a Magazine Rack. It can also be used in the bathroom as a toiletries caddy.
We used a set of Legheads Barcelona M8 IKEA furniture leg at $29.95.
Using the furniture leg attachment plates, we marked where we wanted to legs to go using the center holes.
Next, the furniture legs were inserted into the holes from the bottom of the box, with the adaptor plates screwed from inside the box.
Lastly, we screwed on the Variera handle. Done!
See the complete tutorial.
