I made a computer desk from my son’s old IKEA GULLIVER crib (with IKEA mattress for that crib).
IKEA items used:
- GULLIVER crib
- LINNMON table top
Crib to computer desk conversion
Basically the stand of the desk is the crib. I made it according to original IKEA instructions, leaving out the front wall.
Then I added an IKEA LINNMON table on top. There are no any other parts used. If you wish for more stability, secure the table top to the crib frame with L-brackets.
And it looks beautiful!
I’m a short girl, I put my legs on the mattress. There is enough space for my legs and it’s very cozy.
For somebody taller, it might be a problem. In that case, remove the mattress and base.
Another great thing (and function) of this set up is that my kid puts his toys there. It’s a little play house for him.

#1 Computer desk with monitor hutch
Mike made a computer desk from a Linnmon tabletop, 4 Besta Tofta doors, 5 adjustable table legs and Capita 4″ legs. And it holds up all his screens. See more of the desk with hutch.
#2 Laptop table for 2
Bjørn wanted to make a long workstation which has room for two at the same time and has numerous drawers/cabinets where you can hide all office supplies. This is an IKEA hack that is incredibly easy to make and you can even choose if you want lots of drawers or cabinets. You can also make it for one person also by cutting the worktop and adding two cabinets instead of three. See the dual computer workstation.
#3 Wall unit with computer desk and shelving
Rhiannon made a custom designed wall unit, with a computer desk and plenty of shelves for books. Her hack uses the old EXPEDIT but this can be easily replicated with the KALLAX shelving unit. See more the wall unit with computer table.
