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!

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!

Welcome again to my blog, where I show you (mostly) affordable, practical, and easy projects that you can do at home. First off, I'd like to greet you all a very Happy New Year 2020! Wow, 2019 just flew by so fast and here we are in the middle of January already...whew! Can you believe it? A new year...a new decade! Every year around this time, I tackle our clutter. In doing so, I need some organizers. I have created these two new organizers back in December. They were my last for 2019. Both of these organizers serve multipurpose. I created the first one for my daughter, who needed an organizer for her small makeup collection but did not want it to eat up too much space on her vanity. So, I decided to use a couple of medium-sized golden wire baskets that you can buy at Dollar Tree. In fact, I bought all the materials from Dollar Tree. You will need two of each-- stainless steel paper towel holders, medium-sized wire basket, and stainless steel napkin holders. You will also need a glue gun, scissors, wire ties and the optional silver ribbon for design purposes. You can dress up these organizers the way you want them. The main reason I used the silver ribbon is to mask the zip ties I used on the project, but if the bulky zip ties don't bother you, skip the ribbon!

The second project is one of the easiest ones I have ever done. This one took me less than five minutes to make. You will only need black zip ties, a pair of scissors, a large gold wire rectangular basket and two medium-sized gold wire baskets. All materials, of course, were purchased at Dollar Tree. You will just need to tie up one of the medium-sized baskets at the bottom and one at the top. This organizer can stand on its own but you can also hang it on the wall. To illustrate, I showed it hanging in our bathroom for our face and hand towels and as a fruit basket on our kitchen countertop.
