Pegboard Perfection- Beautifully organised

The idea of the pegboard as a visual storage and organisational tool appeals to me and I am sure to many others. Especially if you have different elements that you want to sit together. It can be practical and can just as well be decorative or a bit of both.

They serve as an adaptable tool that you can use to organise your office, workspace or perhaps even in your kitchen.

So far, I have come across three simple and minimalist solutions which would suit different needs and budgets. We will look at available sizes, accessories for customisation,  materials and more.

1. IKEA- SKADIS range

Ikea. Skadis Pegboard https://ikea.com

Ikea has the SKADIS range which is a popular and affordable option for a pegboard or two. It is available in three sizes and three colour options. They come in black, white or a pink and beige combination; one side is pink and the other beige. This last option is a clever one as you can change things up if you get bored or mix and match for a bit of visual interest.

The range has several accessories for display and storage. Hooks, shelves, baskets, letter holders, elastics, containers, clips etc. These are available for an additional cost when you purchase the pegboard on its own.

The board can be either wall-mounted or desk-mounted. It can also be mounted onto a wardrobe with the appropriate fittings available for all these methods.

Cost: from £10

Available sizes:

• 36 x 56 cm- £10

Block Design offer what is more akin to a traditional pegboard. Their designs are wooden and made by hand. Their website is a real treat with all the available colours and accessories. It really gets the imagination going and you can really tailor your board for your own individual needs. They have some really fabulous accessories that go with their boards.

The pegboards come in two sizes; medium and large which can be mounted landscape or portrait. These are available in a variety of colours from yellow, orange, light blue, white, green, grey and more. 

The medium sized board comes with 14 large wooden pegs and the large comes with 16. Both come with standard wall fixings too.

They also offer a clever pegboard stand option for leaning your board against a wall if you do not want to fix it on a wall.

If you are looking for premium range pegboards then Kreisdesign is the one for you. Their boards are available in larger formats than our previous two mentions. They also offer custom sizes.

The boards are made from solid birch plywood and produced in the UK.

Your pegboard can be hung in a portrait or landscape orientation and wall mounting brackets and installation instructions are included with your order.

Providing real versatility, the range offers quite a sturdy option for your hanging and display needs as the shelves for example, have a 20kg hanging capacity.

There are also some really beautiful finishes on offer, from the floral or chevron patterns or even the walnut veneered finish.

Finally, if you are thinking big you should check out the room dividers which serve as a way to create privacy and demarcate space and at the same time offer a visually interesting storage, organisation and display piece. Life becomes art!

These would also serve well as a flexible retail display unit.
