Recycled Magazine Holders
by Jane Lake
These recycled magazine organizers began life as wine boxes, but sturdy cereal boxes of the right shape and size will work just as well.
Recycled Magazine Holders
Supplies:
wine box or cereal box, about 10-½ inches tall, 9 inches wide, and 3-¾ inches deep
craft knife
straight edge or ruler
pencil
gift wrap and glue or spray paint
Magazine Organizers
Instructions:
2. Draw a diagonal line from the four inch mark to the top opposite corner of the box, as shown. Repeat on the other side of the box.
3. Use a sharp craft knife or exacto knife to cut away the top portion of the box, following the pencil lines.
4. Spray paint the box in the color of your choice, or cover with glue and gift wrap.
Suggestion:
Organize your magazines by color coding - just spray each magazine holder in a different color.
This is just what I was looking for! I have so many magazines that I can't keep up with them. This will help me get organized in 2010!
What a brilliant idea to use up empty wine boxes must admit I do try to find uses for strong empyty boxes.
hi, was looking for an idea for my class project. this is great!
Thank youuuuuuu! nice idea
great idea thnx!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great easy project to do! To solve the issue of it tipping over when you put magazines in it, we taped old AA batteries to the bottom and then cut a piece of cardboard to cover them. Worked great!
I love this. Make sure you use a small box i.e. cereal or wine like they suggest- I used a bigger box and the mags are to small for the box- it still looks fine- just not as snugg.
this web site did not work the box only falls over dont waste ur time!
What a fantastic idea! I quiltily throw the boxes away, knowing they could be used for something, but it never occured to me that I could use them to corral my magazine collection. Thank you so much!
I was looking for magazine holders and I came across recycled magazine holders, great Idea!!!! I already made one, love it. Thanks
