8. IKEA KOPPANG 3-Drawer Chest of Drawers

More than just a dresser, the IKEA KOPPANG can double as a changing table and the benefit is really threefold: 1) it saves you space - no need to have a separate changing table and dresser; 2) it has life long after the nursery since it doesn’t have an attached changing table on top; and 3) the price can’t be beat. See how these pinners styled their KOPPANG dressers as changing tables here and here.
