I feel like in any situation and in any home, a Raskog IKEA cart is always a good idea.
You can paint them to fit in with your home’s aesthetic and they’ll easily look stylish while helping you organize.
Also, when it comes to organizing a small room, it’s a great way to create some extra space while being able to choose what you want on it. And you can easily roll it to any part of the room if you need to change things up.
So if you hate feeling cramped, then this might be a good piece of furniture to invest in.

And whether you’re organizing your belts, purses, or accessories, it’ll all be easy to grab and go.
