5 ways to reuse a shoe box
It seems shoe boxes have always been an item we tend to reuse. Something about the size and shape is just perfect for storing so many things besides shoes. But there are more creative things you can do besides throw stuff in it and toss it on a closet shelf. Here goes:
Artsy stuff and organization. I hope all you creative neat-nicks out there find these useful.
- * photo file box: you can even decorate the outside with paints, fabric or salvaged gift wrap instead of spending around $10 for a brand new one.
- * drawer divider: they're the perfect size to line up underwear in one and socks in another and, voila , your sock and underwear drawer is no longer a jumbled mess.
- * shadow box project: you know the ones; I guess this idea only works if you've got kids in elementary school, but what the heck.
- * valentine box: another elementary school thing. Oh well.
- * mail organizer: they are the perfect size lengthwise for business envelopes; you can make little tabs to separate bills and personal mail and decorate the outside just like my idea for the photo file box.
