DIY Desktop Organizer : Room Decor - Recycle Cereal Boxes and Toilet Paper Rolls - Giulia's Art

In this DIY, I'm teaching you how to make a desk organizer from recycled cereal boxes & cardboard tubes :)

These desk organizers are incredibly cute and creative! All you need is some old boxes, cardboard and glue!

Let's have some fun! ;)

Materials:

Cereal Boxes

Toilet Paper Rolls

Colored paper

Design paper

Glue

Tools:

Ruler

Pen

Scissor

Cutter

Cutting mat

Bone Folder

I have picked a Old El Paso kit Box to serve as base and I removed the lid.

• Choose your design paper and sign where it need to be fold.
• Fold the paper along the marked lines.
• Using PVA glue stick it on the box.

• Take the biggest box and sign at 6" high.
• Using a scissor or a cutter cut along the lines.

• Cover the inside and outside of the box using glue and colored paper.
• For a prettier effect cover the corners with washi tape.

Put glue on the bottom of the box and stick it on the base.

Make sure you do each row smaller than the previous one.

Decorate the organizer using paper butterflies, flower, gem stones and buttons.
