Easy DIY sturdy storage.

Storage is every grafter's second hobby. As much as we love to craft we love to organise and store. So what better way to get pretty storage you love AND get to craft by making your own with your favourite supplies. Its so much fun and EASY too … let me show you how.

Now this is quite a size !!!! 7 1/2" x 4 1/8" x 4 5/8" so relay useful for storing lots of crafty goodies. An alternative Idea is to make just one drawer and sleeve and make it a small gift box for cards, or a notebook or...well anything.

So make one or make more and stack them up whether way this is a fun project which doesn't take long to make.

The easiest way to follow how to make this is to watch my step by step YouTube tutorial. I will leave all the measurements for you below and the products I used. Remember I am merely giving you the basis of an idea here you can totally dress this up. Add handle, drawer pulls, decorative feet... let your imagination go wild and have fun !!! 

Happy crafting xxx Amanda
