DIY Organization Box
Don’t we all need some extra storage? Although we may have plenty we always think that is not enough, don’t you agree? Well, in today’s post I wanna show you how to make a beautiful storage box from a cardboard box to use it around your home. And that’s not all… you also don’t even need a sewing machine!
Want to make an organization box like this? Watch my tutorial video below:
Here is what you’re going to need.
Supplies
- a cardboard box
- popsicle sticks
- ribbon
- a hot glue gun
- glue sticks
- a cutter
- scissors
- a piece of fabric (I had this on hand)
- some sewing pins
- measuring tape
First, you have to cut your box in the preferred size of the popsicle sticks.
You then need to take a popsicle stick and drop a little bit of hot glue at the top and a little at the bottom and then stick it on the box.
You need to do this several times until you cover all the box with the popsicle sticks. Don’t worry! I had a really fun and relaxing time doing this, and I’m sure you will too!
Now, take your ribbon and begin gluing it around to the bottom of the box.
For the inner liner, measure the long side and the short side, the height and until the middle of the bottom and add 2 inches to your measurement.
Fold your fabric in half, the wrong side facing out and cut to those dimensions.
Glue the short sides together with the hot glue, and you will end up with a folded side, two glued sides and an open side.
Place your liner inside the box, and if you have a frayed end like mine, all you have to do is cut the two corners diagonal and glue the fabric by folding it over.
And there you have it! A gorgeous and easy made storage box to use it in many many ways around your home!
