IKEA is well-known for its multifunctional furniture. But few pieces have quite so much versatility as the Raskog Trolley<\/a>. At \u00a349 this sturdy little number is an affordable investment. It comes in four pleasingly neutral colours, has three walled \u2018shelves\u2019, and is made from wipe-clean, powder coated steel. Oh, and it\u2019s on wheels. Here are five of my favourite ways to put this hardworking trolley to work:<\/p>\n

In the Bathroom<\/strong><\/p>\n

Open storage is ideal in places like the bathroom where you might need to quickly reach for shampoo or spare towels. The Raskog trolley is a popular caddy in bathrooms of all sizes, but especially small ones. It\u2019s compact, portable and doesn\u2019t mind a bit of humidity.<\/p>\n

As Shoe Storage<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Wardrobe\"<\/p>\n

A great little wardrobe companion, the Raskog is small enough to fit inside most closet spaces, but big enough for storing shoes and bags. With a few dividers, you could even use it for organising jewellery and other small accessories. Just pull the trolley out when you need to find something.<\/p>\n

In the Kitchen<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Raskog is advertised as a kitchen trolley so it makes sense to include this one. It\u2019s perfect for fruit and veg or dry food storage. Its size makes it ideal for sliding under counters or into pantries, and the wheels allow you to move it around the kitchen with you.<\/p>\n

As A Plant Stand<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now for something completely different. As I\u2019ve already mentioned, the Raskog trolley is wipe-clean and according to reviews, it\u2019s even fairly rust-resistant. This makes it the perfect indoor plant stand. It\u2019s great for plants that need varying light levels because it can easily be moved around from window to shady spot. Plus it just looks really good, as evidenced in the photo above.<\/p>\n

In the Studio<\/strong><\/p>\n

Finally, the Raskog trolley is a fantastic home studio\/home office\/craft room assistant. Perfect for storing your most-used art supplies, stationery and tools. It helps keep rooms organised and tidy, which is a constant battle in most creative spaces. Viva la Raskog, I say!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
