About this ebook
We live in a world of disposable products with packaging material being one of the most wasteful materials manufactured. Next time you are unpacking goods after a shopping spree look more objectively at the boxes and wrappings that were used to display and protect the goods. Once you begin to make your own organizers you will see potential in many types of containers. Instead of just trashing boxes you will be able to turn them into useful organizers around the home. Custom made organizers are fantastic for filling all those awkward spaces in the closet.
