DIY (Craft storage bin)

I could always use more storage for my craft supplies, so I decided to reuse my windowsill herb box. Since it was no longer in use. I figured hey why not use this for extra storage for my stamps and other card supplies.

For this project all I used was the herb box, white paint, stamps, washi tape, glue and three clear plastic cups along with craft paper. I started off with painting my box. Allow it to dry for a few. Once that is done take some craft paper and line both the front and the back of the box. To make sure it stays in place make sure to apply enough glue.

Next step decorate your box! I used a few stamps and washi tape to line the inside of my box. Last step taking three clear plastic cups line them up in your box and add your supplies.

    What a clever way to repurpose something that you aren't using anymore. I would have never thought of that!
