Design your very own organizer using Dollar Tree Items

 Learn how to design and create your own personalized organizer using affordable Dollar Tree items. Get creative with materials and follow these easy DIY steps to make a unique and functional organizer for your home or office space.

Hi everyone! I hope that you are doing well. Recently I took a trip to my local Dollar Tree and found these stackable plastic organizers.

 Today we're going to design our very own organizer. To create your organizer you will only need a few materials. Most of my materials were purchased at my local Dollar Tree store. You will need three of the plastic organizing drawers.

Materials

THREE STACKABLE ORGANIZING DRAWERS 5X5X1.75 IN

ASSORTED FAUX PEARL BEADS

SMALL WOOD BEADS

PEEL AND STICK FLORAL DECALS

PEEL AND STICK DECORATIVE PAPER

HOT GLUE

PAINT- I'M USING ACRYLIC MULTI-SURFACE PAINT

SCISSORS

PAINTBRUSH

One pencil



Clear organizer drawer, paint, and one paintbrush


Start by taking your paint, and applying it to one of your plastic organizers. You will only apply paint on the top surface. I used my blow dryer between coats.  You will need around two coats of paint.

Afterward, take your floral peel-and-stick stickers, and begin to add them to the top painted section on your organizer.

Next, take your peel-and-stick decorative paper, and begin to trace the outline of one of your plastic organizers. Place your organizer on top of your decorative paper, and trace around it. After tracing it out, take your scissors and cut out the traced shape. In the end, you will end up with three decorative cut-out papers.

Begin to add each traced shape to your organizer drawers. Remove the backing, and gently press each one onto the bottom of your organizer drawer. If your paper is too big, just take your scissors and trim.

Flip only one of your drawers over. Take four of your wood beads and place each bead onto each bottom corner.  Your beads will act as legs on the bottom of your organizer. Apply hot glue onto each corner and add each bead.

Next, take each of your organizing drawers and stack them. I used hot glue since I wanted my drawers to not move around. I applied glue onto the four corners of my bottom and middle drawer. Your top drawer should end up being your painted drawer with your floral decal.

After you have stacked your plastic drawers, add your pearls to the top drawer.
