Transforming a house into blissful happy home requires efforts, determination and money on top of everything else.

If you are ready to rock, here is part 2 of 20 tips to repurpose household items to get your inner organization enthusiastic going. You can read part 1 here.

11.  DOUBLE DUTY HANGERS:

Using walls is crucial for making a small space look more spacious, neat and organized; thus, I love every DIY project that promises to use wall area with repurposed household items. One such project is the creation of a striking and functional peg using salvaged hangers.

   

12.  CHALKBOARD TABLE:

If your kids have grown up, their room furniture should also get modified. Reclaim nursery as their new chalkboard table; and, let them have their cool organized desk to do their home works.

13.  PAINT CANS :

Salvaged paint cans be used as stationery organizers and peaceful abode for crafty supplies. If you are feeling creative, you can always decorate the outer edge with wrapping sheets, ribbons and paints. These paint cans are much easier to maintain than glass jars.

14.  MIRRORED RACKETS :

Did your rackets lose their glorious net? Repurpose them by adding mirrors to them. Multiple rackets showcased together can function as your new decorative item.

15.  GLASS JARS :

I love, love, love glass jars. I can’t let go of them and would almost always think of a new way to bring them in use again. These jars are perfect for holding stationery supplies, food supplies, paint brushes, Q-tips and other items.

16.  GET THE WIRES ROLLING :

Toilet tissue roles can keep serving you even after the tissues have been use up. Individual wires, compartmentalized in these roles, can be stacked in shoe box nicely.

17.  RECLAIM SEWING MACHINE :

Old sewing machines, with your little love, can be repurposed into a writing table. Iron stand of a sewing machine provides a sturdier base and netted legs can be painted for more stylish look.

18.  CORNER SHELF :

If you have ever wished to utilize a corner better; it’s time to make it come true. Use magazines holder as your new corner shelf. If you have it installed near entry way, it can serve you as a place to put all the mails, bills or other necessary items that you want to bring in or take out of the home.  

19.  PLANTED CUPS :

They are absolutely adorable. No worries if you don’t have a lawn to introduce some green freshness to your home. Cups that you no more use for hot drinks are ideal for plantation. Oh and yes, making faces does look cute.

20.  MUFFIN TRAY :

Organizing smaller items have always been the hardest, Ah! Why not have them baked with extra muffin tray. Muffin tray sitting on your office desk can store smaller pieces like safety pins, staple pins, rubber bands etc.
