I noticed how cluttered the draw in our kitchen was getting with random packages of tea so I built this simple organizer. There are six partitions that hold single packs and a large partition to hold a box. The base is made from 6mm ply and the sides and dividers are made from 3mm plywood. Supplied are three different file formats for each set of pieces for whatever your work flow needs.

Supplies

•3- 150mmx300mmx3mm plywood sheets

•1 -150mmx300mmx6mm plywood sheet

*wood glue

•masking tape

Take the center piece and the two divider pieces and glue them together

The resulting piece is directional. Dry fit it to the base to orient it properly. Then remove it from the base and glue on the last internal divider.

Now glue the divider assembly to the base.

Attach both sides of the box with glue.

In the last step of assembly glue on the front and back pieces. Finally, I used a few pieces of masking tape to fold it together while the glue dried and a damp, not wet, paper towel to clean up any access glue.
