Sara, thanks so much for spreading the word! I'm glad you posted this because I came to the forum to find out what other artists thought about this taboret table.

Here's the story behind this taboret design--The table I was using was just a cart and I had all my paints jumble up in a bin on one of the shelves which was a mess. It always seemed to take forever to find the color I was looking in my pile of paint tubes! So I decided I needed an actual taboret to help me get more organized, I searched the art supply stores to see what they had. I was looking for a table that would help me organize my paints and brushes since they're what I use the most! And I didn't find anything--most of the taborets out there are just carts with drawers and nothing else. I needed something better, so I decided to designed my own.

Well now, I've gotten quite a bit of interest in it and I've been talking to the carpenter who built this table about possibly making them for other artists. So I'm curious what you think? Please give me your thoughts!

That's a beautifully thought out and well crafted taboret, Casey.

Hi Casey,

I really like the system to organize the drawers. If more parts of the taboret table could be customized I think that the furniture would be suitable for more artists. For example offer units and accesories that can be combined to make your own table.

Best of luck!

I like it very much.

I think you could easily sell your invention wherever you go.
