- A few weeks ago, I did a trip to Michaels and noticed that there were a TON of craft cart accessories that I had never seen before. Several of my amazing subscribers requested that I film a video about how to set up a craft cart. Challenge accepted! I bought EVERY SINGLE cart accessory I could find and went to work putting together the ultimate craft cart. Everything is linked below!

My cart is needing some of these. I looked at them and passed. However, after watching your video I’m going to get back to the store and pick up several items. Lol my cart definitely is overloaded! I need the bigger one! 😂
The bigger one is fabulous! Yup, if you end up adding too much to the cart, it can be really hard to get things in and out.
Really impressed....😃
Love to keep card making supplies in mine.
That's awesome!
I have been on the fence about a cart. I keep talking myself out of it...I think you just convinced me. So cool to have you show us each accessory. Thank you so much!
Go for it!
A cart changes everything. I’m finally super organized I have a cheap makeshift cart that’s a little broken. The cart I really want is the gramercy cart from Michaels ( Canada)
Dollar Tree pegboard hooks and shelves (the mini one) work well on this pegboard. They are super secure and eliminate the rattling sound.
Good tip! Thanks for sharing!
I could imagine using a little hot glue to secure the hooks in place too, if your set up is relatively stable and unchanging.
A "washi organizer living its best life!" - Too brilliant!!! Thank you so much for this video. This is exactly what I had been needing. I had been visiting that section at Michaels so often and getting overwhelmed, confused, and not able to make any decision because nothing was out of their boxes. Seeing everything being set up and used was absolutely priceless. Thank you thank you thank you. So awesome!!!!
You are so welcome!
I am in love with your channel which I only discovered a week or two ago. Why do you only have 50K subscribers?? I can't believe more people haven't found your channel 'cuz they would love it!! You are amazing. I learn so much! Keep up the good work!!
Thank you so much!! Glad you found your way over here 💕 Feel free to spread the word!
I totally agree.
I found a mesh cart with four baskets or shelves for five dollars. I got two cooling racks for cakes at dollar tree and used zip ties to attach one to each side to hang stuff with S hooks. I might put another one on the back. I have some bins in there that I already had. It's hard to believe how much it hold. I haven't decided exactly what to put in it and how to arrange it all. I think the whole thing might end up being about 15$. I'm so happy to have a cart!!
I found the cart at Goodwill.
Very cool!
@@ScrappyWife Thanks! I've been wanting a cart for a long time!
I have a cart from Amazon that includes many of those features…peg board, bins, and hanger. I have washi on the hanger, but I hardly ever use that washi because inevitably I need the roll of washi that is in the middle, which means I have to take off all the ones in the way. I need the whole roll or else I end up with a tangled mess of tape. Probably not a big deal for most people, but it’s one more step that my ADHD brain hates. 😂
Totally get that! It's all about customizing it for how you like to craft/plan!
I think I would use those racks to hold my sticky tape rolls, ribbons, and strings/twine. I don't use washi tape much. Thank you for showing the cart and accessories, I've never thought of them before, but will look at purchasing one now.
Glad the video was helpful for you!
I do not have a cart but now seeing what you did; I believe I need one. Thank you Dee
They are really very helpful!
Your cart bought in the US looks just like mine bought in the UK. I have 2. And I'm not happy with them. For me they seemed like a great storage solution: buckets to hang on the outside, storage for paper rolls on the ends, a short narrow tray to hang on the side of an internal tray etc etc. So I very happily began taking my paints out of storage boxes and into the two trolleys.
For the first few days all went well... Then later I realised that one trolley was tilted over to one side and discovered that the wheels, not being directly under the trolley were bowing outwards and so were the two vertical rods that join the 3 main baskets together. I temporarily put a cable tie around the rods at the base, bringing them back into alignment, but even that did not last - so I had to sacrifice 3 or 4 big books to support the bottom basket, thus taking the strain off the rods and wheels.
This did work... up to a point!I
But the trolley is no longer moveable.
Plus I recently discovered that the 2nd trolley is doing the same thing.
These trolleys are a great idea but not all that practical a design.
I need a welder to fix them.
So, only put a very few and very LIGHTWEIGHT things in them. Or weld them. Have fun with yours. I wish I could have a craft room as big and nice as yours.
I agree, you most definitely can not weigh them down at all or they will start to bend.
I have had three of the Lexington Carts for a couple of years. I suggest putting one pegboard on each side, one at top and the other at bottom. Otherwise, you can't access the lower trays from the pegboard side. Also, the solid pegboards block the light and it can be hard to see clearly. I have never purchased the top as i store many tall items in the top. You probably couldn't see it, but with the add-ons the top was not level and would not make a good working surface. I find the carts very useful, but you need to be careful or you could end up with a troop of them!
Yes, they do have a tendency to multiply!
This is so fun...basically "Pimp my cart"!😄
😂😂😂
I think a cart like this would be best for organizing the supplies you need for a current project. I don't think I would put a bunch of items on/in it just for storage, unless that is the extent of your crafting area available. Thanks for sharing.
To each their own for sure!
OMG, I never thought about a cart for the things I touch the most... As always you challenge me to do better things in my studio... You are roclking it girl... super proud of all the things you got on this cart...
Aw, thanks so much Karen 💕
I use two of these carts for bead storage. I found that several of the storage boxes that have the stackable containers inside fit perfectly on each shelf. I love my carts.
Thanks for sharing!!
OMG, I need to go get the accessories. I keep my journals, watercolors papers, pens, pencils, books, stickers, stamp pads, etc😁..
You should!
What a great idea!
Thanks so much Gillian!
Great cart storage ideas.
Glad you like them!
Love it!!
Thanks Debbie!
So many similar items can be found at Dollar Tree...
I'm going to look next time I go there.
Thanks for the ideas!
Have fun!
I use mine as a Bible study cart and could definitely use a few of those accessories. I’m about to hit Amazon! 😁😁😁
Be careful - not all accessories will work with all carts!
I don't do much Bible decorating, but I do have a study journal that I need a lot of different reference books and so forth for... what a good idea to have a dedicated cart for all that! I could always add my highlighters and pens that I do use!
I never thought I would want one of these carts, but now I think I do! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome! Glad I could demonstrate how they can be used.
WOW what a GREAT demo of the possibilities for this Cart! Love it! ❤️👍
Glad you loved it!
So cute. Thanks for the demo. Now I need to get one for my scrapbook supplies.
You should!
Thanks for the details!
You bet!
So cute! I really love the peg board idea
So glad!
Craft cart videos are my favorite!
Mine too!
For organizing and accessibility, this looks like the way to go. Thanks.
Glad you like it!
Thank you for this video. I had no idea all these things were available for the cart!! Love the way you have you supplies set up for easy use!
I didn't know either until I was strolling around Michaels...so many possibilities for sure!
Love this cart & such amazing accessories to go with it... Super functional... Thank you Elisa..
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
My daughter used the topper in her dorm room when she was in college. The cart held her food it was handy
Perfect!
Awesome video!
Thank you so much!
I love love love this.
Thanks for watching!
Lovely set up.
Thanks so much Cynthia!
Love this idea! You can roll it to the living room and craft whenever too! Love this!
Totally!
Thanks!!!😊
You are so welcome!
Best cart organizational video EVER.
Wow, thanks!
I love this set up! My craft room is only 9x9 so I don't have room for another cart. The only one I have I use for December Daily. I roll it out and load it up in October when the supplies arrive, keep it out thru December, then roll it back in the closet for the next year! They really are a great thing to have if you are in a small place. I originally got one when we were transferred up to DC and living in a 997 sqft apartment. That cart was pretty much all the space I had. Once back in Texas I had room to spread out since the kids are now "Grown & Flown!"
Love that you move seasonal supplies in and out of your space. Such a great choice!
Love the way your cart turnout with all the new accessories.
I have a Lexington cart but haven’t decided what I want to store in it yet. Thank you for all the links. I love your channel Girl!😍😍😍
Thanks so much!!
I love how you filled the cart. I can’t wait to go get some items for my daughter and myself.
Have fun! It always feels good to get a new cart set up!
I do both crafting and artwork so I’d like to make a cart specifically for my paints, brushes, and art materials. The paper towel holder will be a must!
Awesome!
It’s awesome❤. Tfs
Thanks so much Carrie!
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
You are very welcome - thanks for watching!
Nice job. And good advice.
Glad it was helpful!
I absolutely love this! Thank you so much for sharing these cart accessories and demonstrating how they work!! Super helpful!! I'm heading to Michael's today!! Yayyyy!!
Happy shopping! And have fun getting yours set up!
I love this cart and accessories.
Me too!
LOVE IT!! I have the washi hanger and I love it. I have 3 carts. One for planning. One for IOD supplies. The last one is the bigger one and it’s got my craft room essentials.
That is so awesome - hope you re enjoying your carts!
Love this !😊
Glad you liked it!!
Love your new craft room. It’s aspiring thank you ❤️
Thank you! 😊
Absolutely LOVE the wash it tape idea, I'm heading to the store!!
Sweet! Happy shopping!
Well done ✔️
Thank you so much!
I love your cart. You have given me some ideas.
Awesome, I am so happy to hear that!
Love it!! I have SOOOO much Washi! But what a great way to hold at least a season or two at a time. That is a must have! Thank you for doing this video!
Hehe, I feel you on the washi....a season at a time sounds like a great goal!
Cute setup 💕
Thanks so much!
Great suggestions & a very thorough look at cart supply options. Also love how you decorated your cart!
Thanks so much!
This was very helpful!!
So glad it was helpful for you!
Love it!❤
Thank you!!
Thank you for this video! I eyeball those cart attachments every time I pass by them in Michael's. My cart came from Target from my baby shower before I discovered it was awesome to hold craft supplies after my kiddo was out of diapers. So I have problems finding good accessories for it. It's great to see these ones out and attached!
Glad it was helpful. I am not sure if the cart topper will fit, but some of the other accessories may work with your Target cart!
Very informative and helpful. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Elisa! Thanks so much for sharing this. I am in the market for a 2nd cart in the next few months. This gives me a lot of food for thought! I like the dividers, side pockets and top. I'll keep thinking on it!
Nice! The dividers are one of my favorite new accessories!
Great display of organizers for the craft cart! I use the Lexington cart in my sewing area and I love it. BUT you have opened my eyes to what my granddaughter needs for her art supplies! Thank you 😊
Nice! I am sure that your granddaughter will love it!
I love my carts. I use one for my mixed media supplies, one for my office supplies and one for my sewing supplies. I had two more, but downsized and gave one to my friend's granddaughter for her craft supplies, and the other one holds pretty potted plants on my porch 😉 Thanks for these awesome ideas!
That is awesome!
Great ideas for my own cart. Thanks!
You are so very welcome!
I got mine last fall and I love it I use mine for cutting and my inking, I double sided my ink board to the top of my top, I did not see peg board option so next time I am at Michael's going to search for that and I love the cups going to look for those as well, thank you for this video, it surely as motivated me to update my cart to be even more functional I am always trying to find more ways to get more into my space that I can . I am always switching things I do so the less running around that I do the better my craft room is two floors below me so I hate having to run down to craft room and do the hard climb back up.
Yup, I feel like organization is always evolving because our creativity is always evolving!
Love it
Thanks!
Loved your video!! I have 2 carts- 1 for scrapbooking and 1 for building miniatures. I have a washi holder on one and a wood topper for the other to put my maker on. Can go from room to room as the mood strikes me 😊
That is awesome!
I like the hanging thing for my transfer tape, parchment, white and black vinyl. My most go to items :)
Good idea!
Very helpful video! Thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks you gave me some great ideas.
I'm so glad!
Tfs the cart accessories setup. Interesting options.
Thanks for watching!
I use a fabric bin in the top tray for my current season’s sticker books as well as some I reach for most (quotes, boxes, etc)
That's a great idea!
Wow! Love the little cart that could! Lol! Holds quite a bit. I am impressed with it. I might buy one now!
It really does hold a lot! You want to be careful about not weighing it down too much though....
Thanks for this. Just getting started. I just moved and will have a small room for my craft room. It is still full of unpacked boxes and I already know it will have a few pieces of furniture in it that will take up most of the space. I was considering using upper wall space but a tricked out cart will be very helpful also. Hadn't even thought of that! Great idea, thanks!
Glad it was helpful! Have fun setting up your new space!
Thank you so much for doing this video!! I just bought 2 more of these carts recently, hoping to clean up and organize my stuff better. I was looking at all of the Accessories unsure what to get. Now I have a much better idea of what will work for me, after seeing you use them. Again, thank you!!
You are so welcome - I am glad that it was helpful!
Your video was really helpful, and I appreciated your honest opinion!
Yay, glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome, Washi tape holder looks Amazing.
I think so too!
Great video. Such a non- biased review. I have several of these carts and am so thrilled to see all the possibilities for expanding their use. I have subscribed. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for subscribing!
I love it
Thanks so much Kathy!
Turned out really god. ❤ I have been using my Skogsrå for years and I love it. It’s so handy to have that close to you when you crafting. Super smart with the “washi” holder, I haven’t seen one here in Sweden. I have to keep my eyes open for that.
It is pretty cool for sure! I have so much storage in my room, but this is helpful when I want to be a little more mobile.
I have two IKEA with some accorssries the pockets that fit on the outside edges. I use it for general crafting and planner station.. LOVE them
That is awesome!
Wow, this was really super helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
The cart topper us great! It allows you to use your cart for a temporary holding spot next to your work surface❤😊
Yes it does!
So helpful. I just was at Michaels looking at these accessories. Now I can make a better decision what to buy. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
I have 2 craft carts and I need some of these accessories! Thank you for showing them. This was very helpful.
❤ Shirley
You are so welcome!
This is my first visit to your channel. What a find!!!! I have had a cart that I have had for years and had no idea that you could get accessories!!! I can’t wait to look in your links to choose accessories for my cart. I also can’t wait to watch more of your videos. I just SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!!💜
Welcome! SO glad to have you here :)
Thanks for such a detailed review. I am in the market for a cart, so glad I found this!!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful!
As usual, your organization videos floor me! I would use the cart and accessories to maximize my table and counter space and clear things off of them. I was also excited about the idea of setting up a cart full of supplies that I want to try out in my projects. I would then use the Washi tape holder as a place to store faux leather for example because that is a material that I want to try in my projects and have yet to do so.
Love that! Great idea to clear off desk space for working.
Love it! I don’t have a craft cart, still working on setting up my room. Great video💜
Thank you! 😊
You gave me so many ideas on how to better utilize my carts. I need to use one for all my markers I love the separate shelf
Glad it was helpful!
Omg! I was at Michael’s store yesterday and I was sooo overwhelmed! Thank you for all the ideas!
Yay, always happy to help!
Thank you for this video, really helps me decide what I really NEED to store in my cart! Love all the accessories & thankful you did the purchasing and showing us what & how they are "hook" on the cart. Not sure that I would consider all of them, but I like the dividers and the narrow bin. Thank you so much.
Yup, I don't think all of them are totally necessary, but it is always nice to see how they work.
Thank you for sharing. I have been looking at getting some of the cart accessories from Michael's.
They definitely caught my eye this year. It was fun to give them all a try.
I love my carts. I get mine from Amazon and they are really sturdy.
Nice!
Thanks for showing this! I've been on the fence quite a while about getting one of these...but now I have some good ideas!
Always happy to help!
This is EXACTLY what I needed -- thank you SO much!
Definitely placed an order for a bunch of the cups through your links
Awesome!
Thank you! Now I have more understanding how I can make better use of my cart
Glad it was helpful!
This demonstration was really helpful. We can see if the item would be helpful/used in our craft space. AIso it was helpful to see how the pieces fit together. I was amazed at how well the accessories fit. That is not usually my luck when I buy an item with several pieces! Thanks for the video.
Glad it was helpful!
I use the tall rolling shelf unit from Michael's filled with 12x12 project cases for my Cricut supply storage. The vinyl and iron on gets cut into 12x12 sheets. They're easier to store and sort that way. I keep all of my scraps and use transfer tape to piece together the scraps as needed, and I have very little waste.
Sounds like a good solution!
I love your video. I have a cart ,now you gave me many ideas to set it up for my card making. Might have to get another cart because this will free up my space for painting. 😊
Go for it!
