I gave my plain balcony a mega makeover in just two days with cheap buys from Ikea – people are stunned when they see it
A WOMAN has revealed that she gave her plain balcony a mega makeover in just two days and you will be stunned when you see how great it looks.
In an attempt to keep the costs down, Jordin Lane, who also goes by the nickname AJ, explained that she used bargain buys from Ikea to give her balcony a glamorous upgrade.
Taking to TikTok to show off her DIY job, the savvy woman posted her clip and said: “Two day DIY balcony makeover.”
As she showed off her balcony prior to the transformation, she added: “I went from a completely empty balcony.. to this..”
Reflecting on her work, she continued: “So proud of myself.”
The DIY fan, from Buffalo, New York, started out by using patio slabs from Ikea to give the plain floor a modern feel.
She then got some palettes and gave them a clean with a jet washer.
Once cleaned, she used the palettes to make her very own chair.
To finish the chair, she dressed it with large cushions, for the perfect seating area.
To really give her balcony some personality, she used curtains around the space and also hung up some string lights.
As well as this, she got a table and chairs, also from Ikea, and accessorised the balcony with faux plants.
Jordin’s balcony has been totally transformed and is the perfect place for relaxing on summer evenings.
The DIY clip has clearly impressed many, as it has amassed a whopping 877,100 views.
