by Sahana
If you are following me you might know I have done many recycling projects like containers makeover, glass etching in the empty pickles jar, cereal box organizing and more. When I was thinking of more ideas, I find most of the materials I have re-purposed or recycled are from my kitchen pantry.So, today I decided to combine all the ideas and put it in one place so that it is easy for you to follow if you decide to organize any space in your house on a budget. I have used and I am using all these stuff to organize my craft space.No problem, if you are not a crafter, I also have ideas on how to use these ideas for organizing some other areas in your house. So, continue to read my friend!! If I can organize on a budget, you can also!!! Let's dive in to see the ideas.
1) Carton boxes as baskets:
Once you covered, you can use them to store a lot of miscellaneous items.I use them to store bamboo skewers, pipe cleaners, extra masking tapes, scrap poster boards, etc etc. The list just goes on.
If it is a small box, repeat the same step by cutting the top portion. If you want, cut a small opening on both sides to act as a handle and then cover it with contact paper.
I used this box with the opening facing front in my shelf(last picture above) and so it acts as a shelf within a shelf. I used this to store paints. I glued some paper towel tubes in the corner to store the paint pen .So all things paint are in the same place. Organized and also saves place.You can stack the small baskets like this to utilize the space.
Above shown are the two ideas to use cereal boxes, one as a storage box and other as a magazine holder. You can find the details on how to make this and rest of the ideas on my blog.
