Studio Furnishings: The IKEA RASKOG Cart


I love these carts.  They are sold at IKEA and have long been a favorite
of artists working in any medium.  The price has come down over the
years.  Colors are changed from time to time.  If you love a certain color,
snap it up now, before it is replaced by something else!  I was lucky to
acquire three of the turquoise carts before IKEA dropped them in 2016.

IKEA markets these as kitchen "utility" carts.  They should be called
"art carts", simple as that!  Sure, you can use them in your kitchen,
office, or bedroom.  But they really belong in your studio!  They will work
hard for you, never giving you grief about the art you create!

I’ve added “BYGEL” hooked cups to the sides of several of my carts. These
cups can hold markers, scissors, and other art supplies. IKEA sells BYGEL 
cups only in stores; they are not sold on IKEA’s website.

It is a recently added color.
