9 hilarious DIY accessories made from that IKEA carrier

Orlaith Condon

If, like us, you love a good IKEA hack, this latest trend is going to give you some serious inspo.

Balenciaga’s $2,000 tote sent the fashion world into a tailspin when comparisons were made between it and the budget IKEA Frakta carrier.

The humble carrier became somewhat of an ‘it’ item overnight thanks to the colourful bags sent down the runway by the Italian fashion house.

Well, the trend has now escalated and people are giving their blue plastic carrier bags a whole new lease of life.

From your head to your toes, you too can now create a whole host of amazing accessories with the cheap and cheerful shopper.
