Keep Supplies Organized With An Easy Dollar Tree DIY Anyone Can Make

Whether you've recently gone on a stationery shopping spree or you've been deeply focused on your creative project and haven't tidied up along the way, you might not notice the clutter you've created until everything is done. The aftermath you may be left with is pens and markers that have no place to call home in your workspace or craft room. If you've been looking into DIY organization hacks to maintain your flow state, all you really need are a few Dollar Tree essentials to keep your supplies neat and organized — and to create an easy, stackable DIY organizer for all your stationery

Head to your nearest Dollar Tree and grab two of the Iridescent Letter Trays in the color of your choice, three of the Stackable Acrylic Wine Bottle Holders, one Pencil Holder, and two Three-compartment Organizers. In total, this project will cost no more than $15 — and the reward? A neat, inventive, and foolproof way to keep your craft and DIY supplies organized.

You will not need glue for this DIY organizer, as all materials can be stacked securely on top of one another. To assemble this Dollar Tree organizer, start with a letter tray as your base. Next, stack three acrylic wine bottle holders side by side on top of the organizer. Once those are aligned, place the second letter tray on top to complete the basic structure. From here, you can customize how you want to place the remaining organizers — you can place two of the three-compartment organizers side by side, and place the pencil holder on one of the compartments, for example.

Lastly, add your supplies to your new organizer. Keep your cutting mats or papers neatly stacked in the bottom tray; your writing and drawing instruments in each of the wine bottle holders; and smaller supplies like pins and clips on the three-compartment trays. This DIY setup can be easily adapted to your specific needs — whether for your DIY home art studio or just as a practical, affordable way to tidy up your office desk. Alternatively, you can use this organizer for vanity items like makeup brushes, eyeshadow palettes, or nail art accessories.
