A Thrifted Desk Organizer


From these cool tins.... 
comes an organizer for your desk!




The first project I used these vintage molds for was a
knitted pincushion...


That still left me a whole bunch of tins to use for something else... 

The little molds sat on my desk collecting junk for a while until I finally looked at the junk collection and decided to attach them to a long metal tray and use it as a 


I hot glued each little mold onto the long metal tray.


It is perfect for holding string and push pins...

I attached a piece of ruler for quick measurement.


A pincushion, a covered tin for hooks, another for string...


And finally... molds to hold mini clothespins and washi tape. 

The tray is metal so my magnetic Scrabble letters found another great home.


The perfect rustic, repurposed desk organizer!
