Hi friends, this post is long overdue but the great thing about evergreen contents, they never grow old! I know that I have done a ton of DIY Dollar Tree organizers for years; however, they were made of plastic organizers that is why I was so excited when Dollar Tree started carrying wooden signs and plaques that I could use to create organizers that are not just sturdier but prettier to look at!
These multipurpose organizers are amazing. I used these to organize my spices, k-cups, drinking cups, plates, and craft items such as rolls of vinyl. They are also great as plant stands!
Assorted ways to use these wooden items.
Top photo- I used 6 solid wooden signs and 2 8"x8" wooden plaques to create this crate. I painted it in teal for that pop of color! Bottom photo - I used 6 wooden signs and 4 smaller wooden boxes to assemble them together and painted it white!
Both of these make great plant stands for fresh herbs.
The crate can be positioned sideways or upright. If your space is limited, you can use this to organize items on top of your desk or kitchen countertop.
I love this spice rack!

It has been over two weeks since the first day of the New Year and I have been so busy on my YouTube channel. This year, I am creating a lot of Dollar Tree organizers and home decor, with focus on practicality by making my projects functional and pretty! I am also delving into more upcycling and thrifting aside from my usual pure Dollar Tree DIYs. I would like to make sure that I also do my part in helping our environment in my own small way.
Speaking of helping the environment, K-cups or coffee pods are now coming in containers that are fully recyclable, so there shouldn't be so much guilt in indulging in pod drinks! For the past couple of years, my family and I stayed away from k-cups because they were not recyclable back then, but now they are also being recycled and reused. I have used them also to germinate my seeds! In addition, there are reusable pods that you can use to lessen the carbon footprint. Now, since my family went back to drinking k-cups, I thought of creating organizers for them!
Dollar Tree is the best place to find inexpensive organizers. The wide array of options that you can use as they are or you can build to create something different like the wire and metal organizers.
This is an easy, no frill DIY. I used 1 large Dollar Tree shallow rectangular basket and 2 medium size deep baskets in gold finish. I assembled them to make a multipurpose organizer that can hang up on the wall to save some counterspace or can free-stand on the countertop! No tools needed except scissors to cut the zip ties!
Here's the side view of the finished project!

Hanging k-cup holder.
I used 4 metal napkin holders and 1 metal paper towel holder to make this amazing k-cup tower!
It can fit up to 48 k-cups!
So compact!
