Free Cord Organizer for the Junk Drawer
Here is a quick and simple organizing idea for your junk drawer using recycled toilet paper tubes.
Does your charger drawer look like mine?
If it does then this is a free and easy project just for you!
Try this...
Cut a cardboard toilet paper tube in 1/2.
Next, wrap it in pretty paper or burlap, use clothespins to secure until the glue dries.
You might want to use full size tubes for longer cords.
And that's all there is to it!
The colors and designs are up to you!
Instantly a neater junk drawer!
I hope you enjoyed this project and you'll take a look at my Amazon Shop for craft supplies I recommend.

Make Your Own Garden Plant Stakes
I was looking for a free idea for my indoor seed starter garden. I wanted to make garden stakes that could be used in my plants but didn't cost anything.
How to Make a DIY Upcycled Chalkboard
I recently found a very ugly picture in a really beautiful frame.
Luckily... My Valspar free sample came today!
I popped out the picture and gave the frame a coat of white.
The frame looks beautiful in white!
Then I painted the backing board that was inside the frame with chalkboard paint.
I let the paint dry, and then rubbed the side of the chalk over the board and erased it, this keeps the chalk writing from staining the chalkboard.
And the result is an awesome chalkboard in a beautiful white frame!

Tiny Master Bathroom Storage Solutions
Welcome to the world's smallest master bathroom.
I started with new storage...
Target had these great wire baskets!
They come in about 3 different colors.
I chose the gray color that looked most like galvanized steel and they fit perfectly into the wall cubbies.
Don't be fooled by the steel numbers... they're not!
They are actually printed onto tin-look silver tag board!
I traced an oval onto tracing paper so I could center the number through the paper.
