Cereal Box Filing

     Yesterday I had a lot of fun doing projects around the house. I got an idea from pinterest on making my own little paper filing system. So here it is, you just take cereal boxes tape them together, wrap them up and decorate. I thought it turned out well.


The top box mainly holds mail envelopes and folded papers, it was a smaller cereal box. The bottom box I put my coupons in. It looks much better then just having a stack of papers on the counter.

  1. Now that would be a real money saver, rather than spending more molah at target or somewhere. Love the fun green. Would love to have you come link-up at Finished it Friday! Have a fabulous weekend! ~Kimberlee, The Spunky Diva

  2. Love this! I'm a teacher and this would make a great book bin for kids. I host a Home and Family Friday linky party each week. I'd love it if you'd stop by and link up!

  3. Would have never guessed they were cereal boxes! Smart idea. And I think I have that green paper, too! Is it wrapping paper from Hobby Lobby...or was it Target?

    1. The wrapping paper was from Target. I bought it last year after Christmas for 50% off. I thought it was great paper to use for all occassions not just Christmas.
