De-clutter and get organized
to boost your efficiency in your home or at work. These awesome DIY
ideas are incredibly cost-efficient as well. Most of the ideas take less
time than you think to get yourself organized and into a clutter-free
space.
Hot glue together five ball mason jars as shown. Once dry tip on their side and use for spacious little cubbies for pens, pencils, staples, and other small items.
Clip binder clips to the side of a desk to hold USB and other cables. Thread through the metal part to keep cords tangle free.
Remove the desired shelf and place upside down on work surface. Space the lids two inches from another. Screw, nail, or hot glue the lid in place. Return to shelf and screw in jars.
Frame a pegboard and hang above the desk to store items. The peg board can hold small items like scissors and tape.
Use to hold pending or paid bills. Or use the top half as the in-box and the bottom half for out bound bills.
Pin together shoe boxes with clips to store light books and papers. If you prefer to be more decorative, cover the shoe boxes in shelf lining or wrapping paper.
Attach new or used magazine holders to a shelf to hold items. Paint or cover with shelf paper to match the room decor.
Re-purposed wall brackets make lovely magazine, envelope, or paper holders. The fancy look will add a touch of class to your office at home or at work.
Turn bookcases and an old door into a beautiful desk with plenty of storage. The low bookcases provide plenty of storage to keep the desk clear of clutter.
Cereal boxes covered in shelf liner or wrapping paper make for great divided storage in a desk drawer. Use an exacto knife to trim the boxes to suit the drawer.
Two bookcases with hinges make for a lovely way to hide a desk. The desk-top is designed to fold up when the desk is ready to close.
These hanging storage bins are made from re-purposed disinfecting wipes containers. Hang near or above your office work station.
An old window can receive new life as a storage space for the office. Hang reminders and use the chalkboard for family reminders. The project can be completed in an afternoon.
Create a mail sorter with canvas. Those who sew will really love this idea. There are four categories to store bills or use as an in and out box.
Re-purpose a wine rack into a beautiful organizer for your desk. Place empty cups into the spots that hold the wine. And use the cabinet above to store extra supplies.
Give a chest new life as a miniature office to store folders and more. The project is quick and easy. And when complete office files and supplies are beautifully hidden.
Convert a muffin tin to store odds and ends in a desk drawer.
Create a giant ribbon wall. Staple batting and desired fabric to the wall. Use fabric tacks to attach the ribbon. The converted wall will hold papers and much more.
Hang magnetic knife racks vertically to create added storage. Attach hooks for added space.
