Upcycled Cans DIY Office Organizer

Is your office a mess? You can tackle that project with these upcycled cans. Organizing your workspace doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. With just a few recycled cans and some supplies you likely already have, you can create colorful, personalized storage for your pens, pencils, markers, and scissors—all while keeping clutter at bay!

What You’ll Need:

• Empty, clean cans (any size)
• Decorative paper (your choice of colors or patterns)
• Scissors
• Glue stick

Step-by-Step Guide to Organizing Your Office:

1. Clean and Prepare the Cans
   Start by thoroughly cleaning out your cans and removing any labels. Make sure they’re dry and free of residue.
2. Cut the Paper to Fit the Can
   Measure and cut your decorative paper to wrap around the can. Choose colors or patterns that complement your office decor for a customized touch.
3. Decorate the Cans
   You can keep it simple or get creative! Involve the kids and let them design their own paper wraps. My daughter had a blast adding her personal touch, which made the project even more fun!
4. Attach the Paper to the Can
   Use your glue stick to secure the paper around the can. Make sure it sticks well to avoid peeling later.
5. Label for Easy Organization
   Add labels to identify what’s inside each can. Using different colors for each category (pens, pencils, markers, etc.) will make it easy to find exactly what you need, and keep everything in order.
