I've been working on redoing my art studio since July and it's finally finished! I'll share some deets about what I did to pull it all together. For starters, I used to have cheap plastic shelving and I hated it, it looked so cheesy and messy. This time I went with two
wardrobe storage closets from IKEA, and we hacked them!
There is one area meant to hang clothing. We added extra shelves.
I used the tried and true clear boxes with labels. I LOVE being so organized! It makes creating easy and fun. I still get ultra messy, I just make sure to clean up after I'm done.
We painted the cabinets and I added magnetic paint on one side (see to the right?) and corkboard on the other. I used paint to draw fun borders.
For the second cabinet, I did the same, except I made it strictly for fabric. Between the two closets, we made a shelving unit to hold the TV and finished art. My favorite part is that I can use the top of the cabinets to hold all my beloved collectibles!
Felicidades,
Kathy :-)

Love, love, love this idea. It didn't hurt that you painted it my favorite color. Great storage.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great. How did you attach the extra shelves ? And how did you made the corkboard stick to the front. I would like to pimp my dombas with a mirror and a coat hangar but I can't seem to find the right glue.
ReplyDeleteVery creative. I, too, would really love to know how you installed the extra shelves. Can't wait to make better use of my Dombas.
