No matter how organized we are, there will always be those nights wherein after we make our masterpieces, we are all drained out and couldn't bring our feet up to put all the things back to place anymore. The tendency? We stack them up in an empty shelf, and by the time we need them again, they are either folded or already in bad shape due to the “stacking up”. Does this sound familiar? Well, let me introduce to you this IKEA Organizing hack that will improve your Craft Room Storage Organizing level. It will not cost you a lot, but it will make you LEARN and ORGANIZE a lot!

Tools:

Measuring Tape
Saw
Ruler
Pencil

Supplies:

Plywood
Screws
Paint
L – shaped pins

Steps:

1. Remove clutter.

This will let you see the whole area where you will be working on.

2. Measure

Get the width and height of the cube frame.

Determine the measurements for each level point where you will install the shelves.

3. Prepare the shelves

Cut the plywood to your needed length, based on the measurements you took from Step 1.

Paint the plywood pieces with the same color as your IKEA shelf in an open area, then set it out to dry.

4. Install the shelves

Mark the areas inside the shelf cube where you want to put the shelves, then drill the holes.

Attach the L – shaped pins that will hold your shelves.

Carefully put the shelves in, one at a time.

5. Organize your materials.

Now, you can just effortlessly slide in your left-over craft materials.
