Divide too tall shelves in cabinets?
The shelves in cabinet are too tall, and would like to divide them to add another layer of storage--without spending a lot or drilling into the sides--any ideas?
If you can get hold of some empty printer paper boxes, they would make good substitutes for cabinets and/or drawers. Since they're the same size as (regular 8.5 x 11) paper, files should fit right in -- the most efficient use of the box would be to stack the files in the short end (width), standing the files up (rather than laying them down flat in the box). This enables you to see better what's in there as well. And since the boxes are pretty sturdy (they hold quite a bit of weight), they can be stacked. Also, if you get the lids, you have a great dust-free filing system. You can cover the boxes easily with paper or fabric or wallpaper or whatever else you want to decorate them with. Good Luck !
I use free xerox paper boxes from work. Covered them in contact paper.
