    Just amazing, Cori! Thanks for sharing your ideas & tool know-how! The carts are so nice & you can move them about so easily. I have 2 from Michael’s and no, unfortunately they are not as sturdy as the IKEA ones are. But they work pretty good. Thank you so much, you are sooooo clever! Erica❤️

    Thx for all the tips for using and assembling the cart. I especially like how you organize them! I’m going to turn mine into a die cutting station after watching this. TFS ❤️

    Cori you are brilliant, this is such a great idea, plus I do like to play with my tools occasionally. Thanks so much for your excellent explanation of how to put the two carts together. I also loved your idea for the big shot that will make it so you are more likely to use it more often, You rock girl !! Thanks a bunch Hugs and Smiles

    I love the Die cutting station! I am going do this! It will make die cutting in my craftroom so much easier! Thanks so much for sharing!
    Update... I had my hubby watch this video, and he cut me a board to fit in my Raskog Cart to fit my Die cut machine! This is going to be so nice! Thanks again for this great idea!

    Yes! Love the taller cart. I use the ones from Michaels for $30. One for my Tim Holtz products, one for collage fodder and one for card making supplies. But I am loving how you put the Big Shot and supplies in one. I’m off to Michaels for another cart, will be great to free up my table! Brilliant…thanks!

    Cori, we downsized last year as we no longer needed 3300 sq. Feet now retired and our 5 children are now 10 with 8 total children of their own. My studio is 10x11 and before I unpacked I took your advice and used the walls!!! Shelves on 3 with a closet on the 4 th and included my 1902 pie safe for all of my textiles.
    I’m still needing space. I am using one cart like you for my big shot, however did not think about the plywood base brilliant!
    Now one for my sewing machine is getting ordered tonight! This gives me 2 full shelves as I’ll be removing all sewing items to the cart. I’m also going to add the double decker as my husband was watching and suggested I could roll it right in to our walk in pantry next to my studio and roll it in to the craft room as needed. Good NESS - this was by far my most favorite video ever IN 3 years!! Have a delightful week ! Sharing 💜

      @CoriDahmen  2 года назад

      Thank you. I’ve seen similar carts at Michael’s, Joann, etc. I don’t know if they’re made from the same sturdy metal, but they could be! I’d definitely check 😊

    What great ideas Cori. I have had one in my studio for a few years now and for such a small cart it can hold surprisedly many items in an organised fashion. I'm in Denmark, neighbour to Sweden so we know these carts very well. I will be getting a few more now. Thanks for uploading.

    I absolutely love Raskog carts. I have five pink ones and could easily use another three but don’t have the room. Hubby has two green ones at his desk as well.
    Wow! Look at those double decker Raskog!!!

    Love your ideas, Cori!
    I have 2 carts. One is mostly art type supplies. The other is my Christmas cart. It holds 6 x 6 papers pads, stickers, stamps and dies, fabric pieces, ephemera, gems, etc. Just anything to make cards and journals for the Holidays. In the off season, it gets rolled into my closet. I just love carts!!
    Thanks for sharing!

    My carts are from Michaels but look the same except they are pale blue. I love how you turned the top tray upside down for your sewing machine and place the 3/4" plywood under your Big Shot. That is 2 ideas that I am definitely going to use! Thx so much for sharing!!!

  • @jackyheath7958
    @jackyheath7958 2 года назад

    I admire your lateral thinking in the ways you have adapted these trolleys for a particular use. I treated myself to a new sewing machine that did fancy stitches - however it seems to be getting heavier each year (74 and counting) When I have a major sewing project, it stays on the dining table for days because schlepping it backwards and forwards is a major exercise. Ditto my sewing 'notions' which are stored in several different places. You have spurred me into action - organisation is the key to stop wasting time looking for stuff that inexplicably has gone missing . . .
    thank you. Jacky

    • @CoriDahmen
      @CoriDahmen  2 года назад

      My pleasure Jacky and though I’ve sewed fabric on it many times, I’m not sure how well it would work for a quilt or really large project. You might need the spreadability size of a larger work surface. But, the items in your cart could make moving things about a lot more simple.

    Cori, thanks for sharing these raskog ideas. I, too, use one for my sewing machine and I love being able to slide it forward and back as needed. I had not thought about using it the same way for a die cutting machine, Duh! But, will be setting that up soon. Your tower is ingenious. I envy your power tools and construction knowledge. I could probably put one together only if you were standing right beside me giving me guidance. Your craft room looks so organized and efficient. As always, great video and great inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful ideas.

      Road trip! They’ve gone up in price recently (what hasn’t!) but at $39 US, I still consider them a good value because they are very durable and sturdy. I’d consider checking IKEA’s website to make sure they’re in stock at your store before you make that drive, but happy road trip to you!

    Great use of these carts. I have 3 of them from Michaels. I’m not close to an IKEA store. The Michaels cart has the same setup so should work too. I love these carts and love the idea of putting my Big Shot in one. I see a trip in my future.

    • @CoriDahmen
      @CoriDahmen  2 года назад

      I’ve seen the Michael’s carts, but don’t know if they’re made from the same sturdy metal. I’m sure you can check that and see if you think the cart would support the extra height and weight. Just be very careful! I love using my newly formed die cut cart.

I may have to order some of these carts for my craft/quilt room. We don't have an IKEA close and I've looked at those online before. Awesome content. If I attempt this and have any questions, I will be sure to reach out. Thank you again, for all of your creativity - in all medium. :-)

      I love sharing ideas that work. Power tools are only necessary for the double stack. The others can easily be built with the tools IKEA provides in their kit, plus a Phillips screwdriver.

    Thank you for sharing. It is a fabulous idea but I’m loving the die cutting station and the sewing station. Definitely going to borrow that idea as how simple is it to roll the station you want to use next to you

    • @CoriDahmen

    I love the idea of a die cut station, but can you lock the wheels on the cart when in use? I can image it rolling around as I use the machine.

    • @CoriDahmen
      @CoriDahmen  2 года назад

      Mine does not have lock wheels, but I've not had a problem at all. Then again, I generally put my foot on the bottom metal bar, as I do with t he sewing machine cart, so maybe that helps.

    • @CoriDahmen

      Hi Gaye! I think it would depend on the type of carpet you’ve got in there. I can’t imagine it rolling well on thicker r fluffy carpet.

    Hi how did you get your scissors to stick. Looks like magnetic strip. I bought magnetic small storage tins. Won't stick to my cart. I did ask before buying if they would stick. Obviously not. Not sure if i stick magnetic strips to cart then maybe they will stick. Thank you

  • @katie27320
    @katie27320 2 года назад

    Curious if you think it would also work to flip the top basket to put a big shot. Love the idea of doing that for my sewing machine and maybe even my cricut joy!

    • @CoriDahmen
      @CoriDahmen  2 года назад

      I’m sure it would work, but I wanted to keep the back half of the cart for its storage, as well as make sure I couldn’t knock the big shot down/off as I was cranking the handle. I wanted the stability of it being in something. The height of the Big Shot was also an issue with arm cranking when it was on an overturned basket. But, give it a go. It may work really well for you 😊

      Hi Amy! I’ve got a few different types. The black baskets with the woven elastic sides were purchased from Daiso, a Japanese dollar store. I’ve also seen similar baskets at Home Goods. Daiso was also the source for the soft sided gray felt baskets in my die cut cart.

    Second comment. I have one of the carts from Michaels. They ARE NOT AS HEAVY AS THE IKE ONES. There aren't any supports between the side pieces and the caps on top of the supports aren't wide enough for the screws. For stand alone 3 basket they are fine. (In my opinion stacking would not be wise, no bracing. )

    • @CoriDahmen
      @CoriDahmen  2 года назад

      I’ve looked them over and wondered the same thing. The metal doesn’t appear to be as thick or sturdy. But, I’ve not used them so maybe they work really well.
