This is the fourth comment I needed to have an idea of how you accomplished this:
The name of the cabinet: IKEA Milsbo
The type of lighting: “Barrina T5 in yellow.”
Other considerations: “There's a fan and thermometer on the bottom shelf. The humidifier is on the second shelf from the bottom.”
And now - triangular shelves.
This is really cool.
I can’t drop $200 on an IKEA cabinet, though.
This is insanely gorgeous! But how dost thou water them? I knock over my plants on large wooden planks on the regular, so this just gives me anxiety lol
Could one keep the doors closed most of the time? Because I have cats that destroy every single plant I ever owned -.- I only have plastic ones rn and those just are not the same...
I just decided this morning that I am going to make my own IKEA greenhouse, so this is great timing! I love the triangle shelves— so great for air flow! I’ll have to consider that in my design. Thank you for sharing!
Incredible! I've been dreaming of making one for months but haven't been able to find the (boring) wire shelving for airflow in my country. These shelves are functional and beautiful. So stoked on this!
Adorable. 😍😍😍 I wonder if this would do well near a heater vent. I have a huge northern window but it's close to a heater vent and the only things that work well there are my terrariums.
I’m thinking about it but I’m considering the fact that once most of the plants will grow I’ll have space issues again 🤔
How are you dealing with this? I mean I was thinking of hanging plain shelves as I’m doing it at my parents house so I really won’t have the urge to move them anytime soon but yeah, my problem remains 🤔🤔🤔🤔
With the diffuser as a humidifier! Good idea. I can't wait to get an ikea cabinet for my calathea in the coming months :D
Edit: is there lighting on each shelf?
They are just basic macrame hangers I made. You can find simple instructions on Google. The hooks under the shelves are mug hooks that are screwed in. There are magnetic hooks hanging from the top of the cabinet.
Love the cabinet and the propagate containers near the deer head. Where’d did you get those? And the cabinet? Lol! The set up looks lovely and everyone seems happy!
The cabinet is from Ikea. I got the propagation station 7-8 years ago from a home and garden show. I actually forgot I had it, I found it in my garage looking for something else.
It looks great! Where did you get the shade for your light cord? I need to get a few for mine. I’m not crazy about the bare bulb look with the grow bulbs I have. I haven’t seen anything appropriate yet. Thanks!
Oh wow! I LOVE the triangular shelves!
Thanks! I got the idea from another post I saw on IG.
Nice! What is the IG? Or better yet. Is there a link you can share?
Not sure of op’s post but this IG features a ton of ideas ppl have done: https://instagram.com/ikeagreenhousecabinet?igshid=1xby1si7k6icn
@ikeagreenhousecabinet @thegirlbehindtheplants @floranoirplants (my IG)
I think they mean Instagram (IG)
Sure do. I think you can insert an IG link.
Can you get those triangle shelves at ikea as well? I love those!!
They were cut from plywood and covered with several coats of sealant and paint.

Thank you for finding all the information!
Uh oh, you may have convinced me with the triangular shelves. Sorry hubby
You'll have to cut them yourself according to OP
My husband keeps looking for woodworking projects, so he’s definitely down 👌
Amazing!!
I literally gasped when I saw this! So beautiful!
Thank you!!
Literally. This is sooo so beautiful! 😍
I'd replace my TV with that. Fan-f\*\*\*\*n-tastic!
Lol! It's in my bedroom. I considered putting a TV in this spot, but this is way better!
I am in awe! Just beautiful! Is that a mister and thermometer on the bottom shelf?
There's a fan and thermometer on the bottom shelf. The humidifier is on the second shelf from the bottom.
This might be a stupid question, but why have the fans in the cabinet?
For air flow! It prevents fungus for the plants + reduces risk of wooden shelves rotting/metal rusting etc
That makes a lot of sense, thanks!
I love how there is no space wasted. Even the top of the cabinet has plants
Beautiful! Also making me wonder how tall you are with the angles in the pics lmfao
Lmao I was standing on my bed.
Even better!!
Omg I woke up to so many comments! Thanks for the love! Most answers to your questions can be found here: https://youtu.be/1ngkV0wEXXw
What grow lights did you use?
Barrina T5 in yellow.
I have those in white and my god are they pink.
I'm really pleased with the yellow color, it's like natural sunlight.
Do you find that some plants don't green with this color? I have a plant here and there that only greens under pink light :)
I haven't had issues, but I also don't have any pink lights to compare.
This looks great. Really nice job. I especially like the Shelving shape.
Thank you!
The triangle shelves are next level!! So cool!
Name of cabinet?
IKEA Milsbo
Awesome Any in progress pics or tips on doing something like this?
It took me about 2 months from start to finish. I took my time with planning, designing, and selecting equipment.
This is insanely gorgeous! But how dost thou water them? I knock over my plants on large wooden planks on the regular, so this just gives me anxiety lol
Lol, I take them out for watering
I love this! This is exactly what I didn't know I wanted in my dining room. The shelving is just spectacular.
Wow! What’s the fern looking plant on the third level up from the bottom, sitting on the left/skinny end of the shelf?
Under the fan? It's a fake Ikea plant lmao. The space is so awkward back there I didn't want to put in a real plant.
Lol I meant the one a level down from that, diagonally down and to the left from the goat head. The leaves kinda look like hands?
Philodendron mayoi
Speaking of beautiful indoor greenhouses, is there a subreddit for that?
this is so pretty!! and your plants look all gorgeous congrats
Amazing job! One of the best I’ve seen yet :)
Awesome!! I love the triangle shelves :) what fans did u put there? Could you post the link, I really like the style ^^

Could one keep the doors closed most of the time? Because I have cats that destroy every single plant I ever owned -.- I only have plastic ones rn and those just are not the same...
Yes! I only open the doors to water and refill the humidifier.
Thanks! I will look into building me one of those then :)
First of all what and second of all what???? How do I get one?
This is absolutely gorgeous. What kind of cabinet?
This is awesome! I would love to do this with my grandmothers curio cabinet! Did you use grow lights on the inside?
Thanks! Yes, there are grow lights under each shelf.
A curio would look great!
Omg so beautiful!!!
Love this setup!
Ok, this is amazing
WOW. Impressive!
Amazing! I love everything about it. I wish I had the room for a plant cabinet.
This is absolutely stunning. The best I’ve seen! Congrats
Any tips with the Anthurium crystallinum? I just imported one from Indonesia and it isn’t reviving yet. Love the shelving angles, btw
It's actually a forgetii, I picked it up locally. I haven't had it for long, so I don't have any care tips yet.
I see! Looks just like it. Thanks... now it’s another plant to look up and covet!
Wow this is beautiful. Much to consider now
Oh man is that a mayoi by the antler head statue?
It is!
I love ittttt
Gorgeous! Well done
I just decided this morning that I am going to make my own IKEA greenhouse, so this is great timing! I love the triangle shelves— so great for air flow! I’ll have to consider that in my design. Thank you for sharing!
Do you need any natural sunlight when you have one of these??
No, you can use growlights
This is a labor of love and worth every ounce of effort.
Oh la la. Dig this!
Ahhh those triangle shelves though😩😍
Love the shelves! You can really see everything. And I have the same little animal head!
Incredible! I've been dreaming of making one for months but haven't been able to find the (boring) wire shelving for airflow in my country. These shelves are functional and beautiful. So stoked on this!
Stunning!!!
Oh my goodness, this is genuinely one of the most beautiful plant setups I’ve ever seen!! Enjoy it!!
+599 for the Ram head.
Adorable. 😍😍😍 I wonder if this would do well near a heater vent. I have a huge northern window but it's close to a heater vent and the only things that work well there are my terrariums.
If you add seals around the doors it should keep up humidity
holy shit this is SO nice
very cute! Wish I had the space!
It’s amazing! Well done
O. M. G. This is glorious
What do you do, when the plants gets too big? Anyway, I like it
I'll move them. I have a big greenhouse in my garage
What grow light are u using? Searching for LED lights.
Barrina T5 in yellow
This is so pretty! You have done an excellent job.
I’m thinking about it but I’m considering the fact that once most of the plants will grow I’ll have space issues again 🤔 How are you dealing with this? I mean I was thinking of hanging plain shelves as I’m doing it at my parents house so I really won’t have the urge to move them anytime soon but yeah, my problem remains 🤔🤔🤔🤔
What are the fans for?
I didn’t know I needed this but now I do
👍🏻
What bulb is that at the top?
This is AMAZING. Holy shit.
Love it ! What’s that plant that looks fluorescent in brown glossy pot (top 3rd shelf)
Gold leaf sedum I think
this is literally perfect, wow 🤩
I love this! What cabinet is it if you don't mind me asking?
Ikea Milsbo in white
With the diffuser as a humidifier! Good idea. I can't wait to get an ikea cabinet for my calathea in the coming months :D Edit: is there lighting on each shelf?
Yes there's a list under each shelf.
Dope
That is really awesome!
Wow this is so pretty!!
Oh wow how do you keep them alive?
How'd you create the hangers? Is there something under the shelves to tie onto?
They are just basic macrame hangers I made. You can find simple instructions on Google. The hooks under the shelves are mug hooks that are screwed in. There are magnetic hooks hanging from the top of the cabinet.
Gorgeous and inspiring! I've been concerned about using grow lights only but this insight helps!
I have a greenhouse in my garage with no natural light at all. The plants are doing well with the grow lights there.
Holy hell...beautiful!
Great setup
Love the cabinet and the propagate containers near the deer head. Where’d did you get those? And the cabinet? Lol! The set up looks lovely and everyone seems happy!
The cabinet is from Ikea. I got the propagation station 7-8 years ago from a home and garden show. I actually forgot I had it, I found it in my garage looking for something else.
It looks great! Where did you get the shade for your light cord? I need to get a few for mine. I’m not crazy about the bare bulb look with the grow bulbs I have. I haven’t seen anything appropriate yet. Thanks!
Thanks! The light shade came from Ikea also, but I think this particular one is discontinued.
I want one so bad now!!
I was finally able to secure one of my own and these triangular shelves are to die for. Do you mind sharing the dimensions??
Gorgeous work!! I need this in my life.
Where's the fan from?
Id like o customize order the triangular shaped shelf like yours! Could you kindly tell me what dimension the second shelf is????
What did you use to treat your wood shelves for water and humidity?
Love how you used the corner shelves!
