Instructions

  1. Small 6617

    As you go through your everyday life, start holding on to fruit boxes, chocolate boxes and any heavy-duty plastic packaging. I'm a bit of a hoarder so this is easy for me!

  2. Small 6618

    You can use small plastic boxes, with tight closing lids to hold small bits and pieces, such as paper-clips and other stationery.

  3. Small 6619

    Cheap plastic fruit boxes, that don't have lids, and come in various sizes work well as drawer organizers.

  4. Small 6620

    If you want to store finer materials, such as silk threads, ribbons and embellishments delicately, take a large plastic box, with a lid, and a square of belt. Trace around the bottom of the box in chalk on to the felt.

  5. Small 6621

    Cut out the felt and then use a glue gun to stick it to the bottom of the box.

  6. Small 6622

    If you're boxes are going to be kept out on display, you can spruce them up by glue-gunning a ribbon around the outside. (I used a ribbon from a chocolate box).

  7. Small 6623

    These will help to keep your shelves and counters super organized.

  8. Small 6624

    Voila! So many ways to reuse and recycle box packaging.
