Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Has anyone used this and think it is worth the price? I am trying to find ways to store all the art supplies - and have them easily accessible - especially for the little ones

Currently we use a Pampered Chef Tool Turnabout for our fat markers, skinny markers and colored and regular pencils. Crayons are in a pencil box lying down. The magic cabin box would only hold a fraction of what would be held in the tool turnabout.

Having things vertical is a space saver when you have several kids working somewhere at once. The Magic Cabin one doesn't turn like the "Tool Turnabout" , which is definitely a negative. Having it turn is very helpful when dealing with more than 2 kids.

Also, I'm not sure about the wax crayons (stone, stockmar, lyra) standing up like that. I dont' have them, so I don't know. But it seems like they are softer and you'd want them to lie down???? Anyone know about this?

I also have another nice wooden box with lots of misc. cups on the inside (that you can't see) to store our drawing pencils, nicer pens, etc. You could also use toilet paper roll for the inside. Or a nice basket.
