Come join me as I pick up some new items for my art studio from IKEA. It's a fun haul with a mix of storage, organisation, and decorative items. I also run through some of the tried-and-tested IKEA products that have been staples in my studio for years. I've accumulated quite a few things, and I am grateful for how they have helped me organise my art supplies and make the most of my various studio spaces.
What about you? Just about every artist I know owns an IKEA RÅSKOG trolley, but there are so many other fantastic items too. Let me know your must-have picks in the comments!
I hope you enjoy the video and that it provides inspiration for your own creative space. I've linked the items mentioned in the video description below. Note: These are not affiliate links; I just love a bit of IKEA in my studio. 💙

LOL I love how within the first 30 seconds of the video, the small little drag behind cart becomes a full big shopping cart. Ikea is so addicting 🤣

@artelchemist1 13 дней назад

I have an art pantry on the back of the kitchen pantry and I have used IKEA’s plastic shoe holders for storing A4 paper printed and recycled. I also have their hanging containers and bags for brushes and paints. Then I have Bunnings screw and nail storage for collages cutouts. Perfect for apartment art work.

@artelchemist1 13 дней назад

I also have a trolley for stencils and printing materials.

@artelchemist1 13 дней назад

Oh and I’ve used their sliding panel blinds to cover it all up 😂

@LauraHornArt 8 дней назад

Sounds like a great set-up! Love the idea of using a panel blind to make it neat as well. It's so fun to hear how other artists make their space work for them. Thanks for sharing!

@debrastevens9842 17 дней назад

Laura, thanks for showing us your art container haul from Ikea. I am a big fan of Ikea when it comes to storage for my art stuff, especially the trolleys. You can never have too many trolleys. They are wonderful. Wish you a lovely week ahead.

@LauraHornArt 17 дней назад

Thank you! I agree. I’ve fallen hard for the new wooden trolleys already. They are so functional and look beautiful in the space. I’m so grateful we have an IKEA where I live!

What a LOVELY art studio! 👍🌟👍 I'm Swedish and one place I can never get my husband to is Ikea!! Today it's one of the biggest holidays here, Midsummer's Eve.🌿🌻 We're at our cottage, very near where Ikea first started years & years back, Älmhult. (your apron was named Kålfjäril, fjäril is Swedish for butterfly). /Ditte 🤓 🇸🇪

@LauraHornArt 8 дней назад

Sweden is one of my top places that I want to visit!! I find it funny when I watch Swedish RU-vidrs and see so much IKEA everywhere in there homes. I can understand not wanting to go there, but gosh, it has been a welcome gift over here in Australia, as we don't have anything quite like it and there are so many wonderful products that have creatives in mind. I love the apron so much and it is even better now that I know what the name means 🦋 Thank you!

@LisaZoe86 16 дней назад

Lovely little haul video. Somehow you are always like a ray of sunshine to me. :-) Since you mentioned framing art from other artists for your home: I would love to see the art you collect from other artists and hear when and why you bought the pieces, what they mean to you. Are they influencing you? ❤

@LauraHornArt 16 дней назад

Oh, that's a lovely comment to read. Thank you! A while back, I did a vlog (it's the puppy one) and in that vlog, I shared a few paintings that I had purchased. It's this one: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KCBORE80NAQ.htmlsi=5obnJlv46uwfd8AP. I'll do another video soon with the pieces I am putting in my office. They all influence me in some way!

@samanthahuth9740 17 дней назад

Great video! I also have a combination of old and new. Old sewing kits are so perfect to organize pastels. Would you consider showing us some of your favorite older furniture/organizational pieces? Antiques + art supplies seem like a match made in heaven 💚

@LauraHornArt 16 дней назад

I have seen old sewing kits that look amazing for pastels; I must keep an eye out for one. And yes, I will look at making another video with the vintage/thrifted items that I use in the studio. Having both is the best imo! New and old.

@creativewah 17 дней назад

I love Ikea's trolleys, extremely functional and easy to move where you want them...and holds lots of things🙂. I must say I love the look of the kitchen trolley...hmmm. Thanks Laura

@LauraHornArt 17 дней назад

They are so practical! I've been living with the wooden trolleys for a bit now and I have to say, I am so happy with them. I am glad that Richie talked me into getting them. I was a bit on the fence, but he knew they would work well. They hold so much stuff but they have a pretty small footprint and are fairly easy to maneuver. They are also sturdy when stationary. All in all, a win for sure!

@lesliehoyt 17 дней назад

Fun to see all of your goodies! I have two trolleys similar size as yours that I got on Wayfair. (I'm in the US and I have been calling them kitchen islands!) I have them back to back as you mentioned and it gives me a nice workspace with tons of storage. Mine have stainless tops which I like for encaustic work.

@Nohrita 16 дней назад

Hi. That was great to watch. My best IKEA discovery was the BROR utility cart. I love how smooth the wheels are and I actually changed the height of the midsection shelf. I absolutely love working on it and being able to move it around the place.

@LauraHornArt 16 дней назад

I had a look at that one too, looks fantastic. Glad you enjoyed the video. Trolleys are the best!

@MadisonBriggsArtchick 17 дней назад

I love your studio set up and the vintage pieces add so much! Your new items will find their use and own space, I am certain! My current studio space is in the living room of my apartment and I am full up on what furniture will fit and allow easy access. I have had that Alex unit in the past and I wish I had room for one, now, but it will have to wait until I have my next space.

@LauraHornArt 16 дней назад

Thank you! I agree, I feel like the vintage pieces give it a homey feel, but I don't think I would want it to be all vintage. There's something clean and fresh about IKEA pieces that I enjoy too, plus they certainly are functional! All the best for your next creative space when it comes :)

@JenniferSmith-qv3yr 17 дней назад

These are all great ideas! I'd love to hear more about the types of lighting that you use in your space, as well! Thank you, as always, for sharing!

@LauraHornArt 17 дней назад

Thank you, I often get asked about lighting. For the most part, I use natural light, but I am considering getting some studio lights for those darker days and evenings during the winter. The other day I couldn't really paint because it was such a dark day and it was frustrating! Some daylight task lamps would be really helpful.

@KrisVictoria 17 дней назад

This was so great to watch. I’ve been so curious about how other artists use ikea items. I love the Alex drawers! They are perfect for watercolor pads, paper, and other art supplies. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the pegboard!

@LauraHornArt 16 дней назад

@cecilenichols8590 5 дней назад

@@LauraHornArt I think once you've been there, even if you aren't interested in their home furniture, there are so many other great buys there! There are so many organizational and inexpensive options. We lived in Germany for 12 years, about 5 kilometers from our first Ikea, and we went there a lot!!! Enjoy your next trip there!

@AliceSheridanStudio 17 дней назад

Great to see … I have a whole run of the low IVAR units with a broader plywood top in my studio. Got to move it all today as they are installing heating! Might take it as an opportunity to review layout and organisation- I just use shoe boxes for paint tubes!

@LauraHornArt 17 дней назад

Hi Alice! Lovely to see you here. The IVAR shelves are great. Worth taking them down, though, to get your heating put in. Heating/cooling was one of the first things I put in my studio. I listened to your ART Juice episode recently, I think it was the studio secrets one. I had to laugh, as I am one of those artists who treats their studio like a home. It has to be cosy, plenty of plants, books, etc. Otherwise, I never go! Oh, and nothing wrong with shoe boxes-a great way to re-use them!

Thanks for sharing your haul, love ikea ideas for. My studio. One idea to share with you that I used for my studio, I purchased the Bror bench which is black metal and a wood top. I used a small propane torch and burnt the top to pull out the grain in the wood. It looks amazing (also smells Wonderful while doing it) . Let me know if you’d like a photo of it I can def send one . Adds so much character and hides any marks I make while working. The more I use it the nicer it looks!

Ooh that sounds amazing. I did think about getting that one. It was hard to choose!

@piamorgaine901 16 дней назад

Such a wonderful Mother's Day gift, Laura! And what a beautiful team you and Richie are......♥ Like so many others, I'm also a fan of IKEA products. You have such a good eye for what will work for you. You've given me some great ideas, so thank you for offering us this video. I do have a question for you, please. Can you tell me how you have the clips adhered to your wall for hanging pictures? I think that's a wonderful idea and would like to do that as well. Perhaps you simply use sticky foam pieces of some sort. Would you clarify that for me? Thanks so much, Laura. I love your artwork, the environment you've created for yourself and all you offer in the way of teaching. All the best to you and your family. 💜

@LauraHornArt 16 дней назад

Thank you Pia for such a lovely comment. I just hang the art pieces using bulldog clops on little nails that are tapped into the wall. I am pretty sure Richie found the studs so it was easy to nail in, but you could use dry wall hooks or adhesive hooks (especially if you are just hanging light paper pieces).

Hi Jessica, I haven’t tried stacking them but I think I’ve seen it done. They are very sturdy. Maybe if you search it up, you might find an answer in an IKEA forum online.
