Cardboard Boxes

Hi,

often organising your room, especially if you don't have much space can be a problem. For me, sharing a room with my two sisters, it is a nightmare. But I have found a lot of ways to make it work. I will go into more details another time, for now I will tell you one of the best ways of saving space and storing things. Cardboard Boxes.

The first thing you can do is a cardboard box shelf, all you need are a few boxes of various shapes and sizes and some tape parcel or duct tape:

I used two boxes on top of each other, I cut off the flaps and taped the top and bottom box together.

I used a shoe box on each side of the main shelf structure to put extra books in.

 I put some of my Jars on the shelves as well as some books and a money box and alarm clock on top of the book shelves as ornaments.


 
Next I made draw dividers: 

I taped together three boxes which I cut the tops off of so that they were short enough to fit.



 
The draw dividers just help make things a little more organised and you can make them out of cardboard packaging from anything, I used a kitchen labels packet, a sugar box and a box we got in the post for some of my dividers.
 
Although these dividers are pretty cheap and cheerful, they all make a huge difference and without them my room would be a very different place.
 
Thanks,
Ellie
