Ikea Hack with O'verlay

As you know I've slowly been decorating my apartment. I have this small space between the bathroom and my wardrobe, which just fit this simple, slightly ugly Micke Ikea desk perfectly. Even with this little set up, the space looked so drab. That was until I ordered a custom decorative strip from O'verlay (Similar size here). 

The O'verlay is made of a sturdy plastic, which is made specifically for Ikea furniture and easily adhere's to anything with glue dots. Of course, I had to pick the Greek key! LOL

While it was pretty in white, it wasn't really standing out on the desk drawer where I wanted to put it, so I decided to get fancy and paint it gold.

 I LOVE IT! I swear it changes the entire look of the space and makes the desk look so much nicer. It might be one of my favorite things in my apartment. I want to O'verlay everything now!

When I was at Ikea, I also got this cute kitchen cart, which I'm using a bar cart. ADORABLE!!
