Creating your own desktop organizer out of cardboard is a great way to organize your workspace and still be creative. Here are detailed instructions and useful tips to help make the process as convenient as possible and the result is durable and beautiful.
Material selection To begin with, use thick cardboard — it is more durable and retains its shape longer. You can take old boxes or buy special cardboard for crafts.
Planning and markup Before starting work, be sure to measure and draw the part templates. This will help you to accurately cut out all the elements and avoid mistakes. Draw lines for the compartments, and take into account the sizes of pens, pencils, notebooks, and other items that you plan to store.
Preparing the tools Use a sharp knife or a stationery knife for neat and precise cuts. Do not forget to prepare a ruler, pencil and glue (preferably hot glue or double—sided adhesive tape).
Cutting out details Cut out the details carefully, following the lines. For smooth and clean cuts, it is better to use a sharp knife and a hard surface.
Assembly and gluing Connect the parts in stages, gluing them neatly and tightly. For reliability, you can strengthen the corners and joints with additional strips of cardboard. Allow the glue to dry well so that the structure is strong and stable.
Strengthening and sustainability For greater durability, additional cardboard inserts or substrates can be inserted inside. This will make the organizer more stable and durable.
Decorating To make the organizer bright and individual, decorate it with paints, stickers, colored paper or markers. This will add uniqueness to it and make the work more enjoyable.
I really wanted to buy an organizer with transparent drawers in an online store. But I decided to make it myself out of cardboard. ✂️📦 https://youtu.be/HzDUT1wIkzg
What you will need: • Thick cardboard (can be taken from the box) 📦 • A4 sheet for decoration 🖼️ • Transparent plastic (for drawers) 🧴 • Glue 🖇️ • Stationery knife 🔪 • Metal ruler 📏
Stage 1 🛠️ We cut out the details from cardboard: the bottom is 26x16 cm, the back wall is 26x17 cm. We glue the parts using plain paper or glue. 🎨
Using hot glue, we fasten the bottom and back wall to the walls, creating a frame. 🔥
Next, we cut out two sides measuring 17x16.7 cm. We round off the corners and paste them with paper. Then we attach it to the main structure. 🧩
Stage 2 📏 We cut out dividing partitions measuring 15.7 x 5.5 cm from cardboard — they will create compartments inside. Using hot glue, we fix them inside. 🔥
Next, we cut out a shelf measuring 26x16 cm, decorate it with paper and attach it to the side walls. 🎨
Stage 3 We cut out additional partitions: 10x26 cm, 9x4.5 cm, 13x9 cm and 12x9.5 cm with rounded corners. We glue them with paper, then fix them inside the organizer. 🧩
We cover the end sides with narrow strips of paper so that the paint matches the color. 🖍️
Stage 4 🎁 We make small boxes: we cut out the details from cardboard — the bottom is 12x15 cm, the sides are 4.5x15 cm and 4.5x11.3 cm. We glue them together with paper and hot glue, and paste transparent plastic on the front to make boxes with transparent facades. 🧴
After assembly, the organizer is completely ready and it can be conveniently filled at will! May your project bring joy and inspiration! ✨
💌I like to create useful things with my own hands. This is especially good because you can save the environment and not throw away the cardboard ♻, but transform it into a useful thing! If you love it too, then watch my interesting new idea. https://youtu.be/amZMx5MWNsI 🤗💖
This time I came up with the idea to make a cute organizer box in the shape of a heart. A box with a lid, which I decorated with an original shaker with pink balls and sequins and a cute face. The box is quite roomy inside, as I added another extra drawer for storing small items. The middle compartment is removed and there is another, deeper and more spacious compartment where you can put larger items of office or jewelry. If you add partitions, then the items can be conveniently sorted into cells.
✂Materials:
- Thick cardboard (for the base)
- Colored cardboard (for decoration and applications)
- Transparent plastic (for shaker)
-Wrapping paper (for decoration)
- Scissors and glue
❓How to make 🙌 an organizer in the form of a cute Unicorn?
Everything is very simple.
We will need thick cardboard (a cardboard box will do), colored paper for decoration and applications, scissors, glue and some free time. We cut out the details from cardboard (see all sizes in the video https://youtu.be/M00Dieqgt_Y ) for the two halves of the organizer. We decorate the outer and inner parts with colored cardboard. We fasten the two halves with thick paper covered with adhesive tape. We cut out the internal partitions separately from cardboard and paste them with colored paper.
Adding drawers inside the organizer.
All we have to do is make an application of the cute Unicorn face and we can use the organizer with pleasure.
It will look charming on any desk and will keep stationery inside.
Friends, check out the new video on my channel! https://youtu.be/-8RIPhQ0i9w I’ve created a step-by-step tutorial for making a organizer with drawers of different shapes. The organizer has a Kurumi style, but you can add any stickers you like or create your own style.
One feature I want to highlight is the unusual handles for the drawers. I’m showing you a new way to make them. The handles for small drawers are part of a single corner piece with the drawer itself. They are very sturdy and easy to grip.
Another idea for a unique handle is to make it as an applique of your favorite character or object, like a bow. To do this, reinforce the applique from the back with cardboard or thick 2mm foamiran, as shown in my video. Then, you’ll need a plastic lid, onto which you glue the applique. Finally, fix the handle onto the drawer with glue.
All the dimensions of the organizer parts and the instructions are in the video. Enjoy watching, and please leave a comment below—I always love to hear what you think!
