    I’m definitely inspired! I love it!
    We have arts and craft supplies all over the house – some is more accessible than others! I need to fix that before summer starts.

      I was like that too. I had paper in one area, and crayons in the other. The kids LOVE their art cart, and I love that it localizes all of the supplies. That way I’m not getting up and down for “Glue, please!” “Where are the scissors!?!?” etc, etc. 🙂

    I love the idea of an art cart! I just recently bought a Raskog for my scrapbooking supplies and I LOVE it!! There are so many possibilites for it, I don’t know why it’s just called a kitchen cart!

      I don’t know why it’s called a “kitchen cart” either – I love that you use yours for scrapbooking supplies. I can see this cart used in so many crafty ways!

    Looks like so much fun!! I totally need to ditch the cart with drawers and get one of these!

      I have some of those carts with drawers too. But this one is just so pretty! 🙂

      And you can have grabby little hands reaching in on all sides!

    My 6yo daughter’s art drawer is a MESS. This would be so awesome! Plus we could roll it into a closet when she’s done to keep her baby sister out of it! Pinning now…love it so much 🙂

      I love that you can roll it away, too! It’s so nice to have the art supplies come out at one time… but then go back to its home when the kids are done.

      Let me know if you do this! I have to say, we are LOVING it here!

      Thank you, Jamie! Well, I originally “borrowed” the idea from my friend in the first place, so go ahead and steal it! 🙂

      I love love love this cart, Jo-Anna! It’s probably one of my favourite Ikea purchases (after anything Expedit, of course). You should get one! I can imagine how it would be fabulous in the kitchen too! (As it’s designed for)

    I LOVE the art cart! Think I could I make one even thought I’m an adult without kids? 🙂 I love crafts!

      Nat – let me know if you did this! I would love to see how such a creative gal like you sets up her cart. You could even do one for sewing too… (Can you tell I want another cart? One day….)

    That RASKOG cart owns me. Eventually one will make it into our house because I lack IKEA furniture as is. What a great idea though! Your girls must love that!

    Oh,Tara, this art cart is absolutely amazing! I so wish Ikea wasn’t 2 hours away! However, I MUST make a trip there soon! (this is not a want but a “NEED”) hehe! 😉

      Our Ikea is about 45 minutes away… if it were any closer, I think it would be dangerous for my pocketbook! The cart is pretty fabulous, I will admit! 🙂

    Love it Tara- we have the exact same cart. I got it for my birthday- haha. I had used it as my son’s art cart at first too but then got selfish and hogged it back for myself. It is so cute and he wasn’t keeping it tidy enough for me (lol). Kidding. But I did hog it back. Pinning!

      I WANT to hog it back…. I’m thinking about getting a second! And what a great birthday gift! I would have been thrilled to receive it!

    Such a great idea! And that cart will grow with your kids – my oldest had it in her dorm room for her necessities.

      Such a good idea, having it as a dorm room accessory! I honestly want another one for my craft space…. maybe on my next Ikea trip!

    I LOVE this! All of our art supplies are squashed into a cupboard in the kitchen … it’s hard for the kids (and me!) to access, keep organized, and even want to use. But this art cart is so awesome! I think I *need* to make one too!

      Oh, you DO need to make one, Julie! I’m so pleased with it, and the girls are already more likely to get creative having all of their supplies readily at hand!

    I love this post! I’m doing a blog series on “Back to School-Get Ready” and the post I’m doing is on organization for your classroom. I just wanted to let you know that I found you on Pinterest and loved your cart! I have linked you and your photo in my post. I hope that’s ok 🙂 Have a great day! Sincerely, Tera
