I just bought the Alex drawers from IKEA for my makeup. I'm planning on putting them together tomorrow, but am a little nervous about building them. Has anyone else purchased them? How did assembling them go? Any tips? What did you use to organize the actually drawers? :)

I don't have that exact one, but I have A LOT of Ikea furniture... And honestly they are all fairly easy to put together, the all come with instructions so you shouldn't have any trouble.

Read the directions very carefully. My bf accidentally put the screws in backwards on the top drawer and now I have to pull hard to get it open lol

We haven't been able to get those screws out lol. Maybe a drill will. But here's a pic...
The little screws go inside and the big screws go outside. Hopefully that helps.
