Ikea Raskog Cart Storage

Ikea Raskog Cart 

I finished decking out my Ikea Raskog Cart.  I added some Mainstay baskets from Walmart.
I also added mesh drawer organizers for Ribbon, Washi Tape and wood stamps.
The baskets are removable and can be changed out according to what your working on.
I got the baskets in the front and on the sides at Walmart. The baskets were over by the kitchen supplies at the Walmart here. I had to put the hooks in the baskets and foam behind the basket so it sat up straighter.





































Hooks are shown on the left.
I took the white part off these hooks.
I used them to hang the baskets for the washi tape and ribbon
The label shown on the right is the baskets I used.

I don't keep the baskets on my carts all the time.
When I'm working on a project I use the baskets to hold supplies.

4th Of July Banner

4th Of July Banner
Happy 4th of July everyone!!  Hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday!
I've been working on this banner and finished it just in time for the 4th Of July!






Instructions: Cut a piece of paper 5" wide and 11" long.
Score the paper every 1-3/8"


Fold the paper so the 2 ends are facing up. The 3 center pieces will be folded up.
So you will have 3 peaks and 4 valleys.


Staple the flower in the middle. Then Cut an angle on each end of the paper.
Lay the paper with the 3 peaks facing away from you then cut the angles.


This is how it will look from the top view.


Bring the 2 end pieces together and glue to form a half flower.



Bring the other 2 ends together and glue to form the full flower.

The stars were cut with Cricut Design Space.
The star is cut from Cricut fonts and Basic Shapes cartridge.
They were cut 2" wide by 1.9" high.
I used the star shadow to decorate the banner.
