SKÅDIS Hanging Hook (White)

These Skadis protruding hooks are terrific to hang anything you can imagine. They can be repositioned easily but stay securely inside the pegboard slots. They're light but strong. So many uses I've given to these to hang scissors, small torches, some art supplies, some painting tubes (those that have a hole at the base for example), keys, utensils and much more. Good quality but pricey.

SKÅDIS Container (White)

This container is a great addition for any pegboard. I's great as a pen or crayon holder as it stays in place safely thanks to the well-designed back hooks. It holds tons of stuff and vertically, away from my table, and I can use it with markers, pens, pencils, crayons (these would stain the inside a bit) among other things. Great quality plastic.

SKÅDIS Clip

These clips are almost flat and hook into any Skadis pegboard easily. I don't find them as useful as other hooks and Skadis accessories as these are designed mostly to hold paper. That being the case aren't as versatile, or at least to me, as other hugs and clips. However, they are still great to have important pieces of paper on display: bills to pay, or photos, or leaflets for an event, or your own painting or drawing, inspiration images for your inspiration board, postcards received, and so on.

SKÅDIS Container with Lid (White)

These containers are designed specifically for Ikea Skadis pegboard system. They look beautiful, are made of good quality plastic, so much so that the translucent container looks like glass. These are a bit tricky to use because their hanging and opening system is not the best. Unlike the other hanging container, which is perfect, this one's hanging hooks aren't on the container but on the lid. Besides, you have to get used to sliding the container into the lid, not the other way around. It doesn't make sense to me because, this way, it's ease to drop the bottom and its contents or, otherwise, as I do, you need to be super conscious of how you open and close the container. Personally, I would not use it with condiments or spices.

HARVMATTA Letter Tray (Anthracite, 32x25x32 cm)

Like the rest of the Harvamatta series, this tray is both practical and stylish. It's quite large and you'll need a bit of space to place it. (I think it fits inside a Kallax cube). It's also a bit heavy (about 4.5 kilos); most of the weight comes from the individual trays as the outer shell is quite light.

I use this letter tray to declutter my desk and other surfaces in my home office. I store papers that I haven't classified yet (e.g. letters, postcards, receipts),  printing paper, and current documents that I want to keep at hand (e.g. medication prescriptions, medical referrals or certificates, bills to pay). The  trays are sturdy and hold A4-size paper pads, small sketchbooks, small items of stationery, and phone chargers. In a way, this letter tray is a mini-shelving system. The individual trays can be pulled out for convenience and their cork lining and outer curved flap prevent anything from sliding off and out.

Assembly is easy. The only difficulty I found was clicking in the last piece of the outer shell.
