5 Eco-Friendly Organizing Projects

4. Shoe Box as a Ribbon Organizer by Real Simple

If you get a pair of new shoes this Christmas, don’t throw away the shoe box! Shoe boxes can store a multitude of things, but I especially love Real Simple’s tutorial on how to make a shoe box into a ribbon organizer. It’s such a great way to keep all of your ribbon in one uniform spot and it will keep your ribbon from getting tangled! All you need to complete this project is a shoe box and a hole puncher or box cutter– so simple! Last, but not least, is a project that will get all of your mail, bills, and papers organized using a cereal box!
