The laundry box was picked up. Set the lid aside for now. You'll need it a little later.
- First, decide on the size of the drawer for underwear. Think about how many things you can put in it. It depends on what size box for underwear to choose and how many cells to divide it into.
- On the side walls, measure the height of the future organizer. Focus on the parameters of the locker in which you will store it.
- Mark the cut lines.
- Cut off the excess.
- From the lid and the remains of the box, make internal partitions. Calculate how many blanks you will need. Proceed from the calculation of the optimal cell area - 7-8 cm2.
Make the height of the partitions equal to the height of the box or slightly less. They will be 2-3 mm shorter in length than the box itself. Then the assembled underwear or socks will fit freely into the cells.
Now these blanks need to be decorated. In our case, gift wrapping paper with an interesting “crumpled” texture was used. But, in order to save money, you can get by with ordinary white sheets of A4 format. - Tape the cardboard on all sides.
- Send them under pressure for a while. In the meantime, they dry, do the finishing of the box.
Start from the inside of the sides.
- Then decorate the bottom.
For exterior decor, oracal, scrapbooking paper or fabric is suitable. The material must be durable to withstand long-term use. We took thick wrapping paper in a contrasting color. - Start with the sides. Make an allowance on both sides of 3-4 cm.
Do not stick paper without "trying on" - this is fraught with errors and irregularities. - Bend the sides - it will be more convenient. Make notches at the fold lines at the corners of the box so that the paper lays flat.
- Now you can glue.
- At the end, decorate the base of the box.
- Now back to the planks that dried out under pressure. Mark the location of future cells on them.
- On long blanks, make marks from the side where the glued edge is visible, and on short blanks, from the opposite side. Then, when assembled, the lattice will look neat.
- According to the marked marks, make cuts to the middle of the cardboard. The width of the notch should approximately equal the thickness of the plank.
- Now assemble the grate and insert into the box. Our underwear and sock organizer is ready to use.
The result is worth the effort. Such an exemplary order will cause admiration even among an avid perfectionist.
No matter how you put your own or children's underwear in the closet, it still creates a mess. Therefore, often the housewives take him one of the drawers of the chest of drawers or a separate rack. But there will be no order even at the appointed place if the linen is simply stored on the shelf.

- 1. A cardboard box is chosen so that it is strong and fits the size of your shelf. The height can be reduced by cutting the sides with a utility knife.
- 2. Depending on the size of the box, divide into cells. To do this, cut out rectangular membranes from thick cardboard or corrugated cardboard. They need to be divided so that cells with an area of \u200b\u200b7-8 square meters are obtained. cm.
- 3. Let's move on to decorating. In our case, we used special paper with a specific texture. But you can use plain, writing paper. We paste over the membranes with decorated paper, and leave them to dry under pressure. To decorate the box, the sides are first pasted over, and then the bottom with one material. For external design we use thick paper with a pattern.
- 4. Let's move on to marking the slats. On the longitudinal membranes, we make markings from the side where the glued edges are visible. On the transverse bars - on the contrary. Due to this, the assembled lattice will look neat and harmonious. Every 7-8 cm we make marks, and then cuts to the middle. We collect the grate and insert it into the box.

And in general, order in the house should be in everything, it makes our life much easier. Today we will show everyone how to make this simple and very useful thing.
How to make an organizer with your own hands?
Organizer It is first and foremost a box. And so, for work we need:
Thick cardboard for partitions
Box
Upholstery fabric
Pencil
Sewing machine
Scissors
Ruler
If there is no sewing machine, we can sew all the details by hand.
Let's start creating!
To present a general picture of the future organizer, let's write a little about it. The organizer is a box in which there are many pockets for linen. If we don’t have a box, we can make it ourselves, if we have it, then it remains to be done, only a partition for it.
1 . First of all, we need to calculate the size of the box from which we will make our organizer. Then calculate how far the partitions will be, and make them out of thick cardboard.
2. Now we need to sheathe them with fabric. Let's start by measuring it. Fabrics should be measured larger than the cardboard itself, so that it is convenient to sew it. In our case, we will sew several partitions into one at once, so that in the future it will be easier to insert and fasten them together.
3. Carefully we sew the cardboard.
4. Now we need to connect all the partitions together, they can simply be sewn together. As a result, we should get something like this:
5 . We can also sheathe the box with the same fabric, after which we insert partitions into it.
6 . Having fixed the partitions in the box, we get a ready-made organizer that can already be used for its intended purpose!
We need a thick fabric (I had a "tick" lying in a chest for 20 years), a 12 mm wide tape and thick cardboard, scissors (). We will make an organizer 36x36cm and 8 cm high. First of all, let's draw it, I decided to make 8 cells 9x9 and 4 cells 9x18. After everything is drawn, we begin to consider how long we need to cut off the strips for the internal partitions.
The first strip consists of the 1st horizontal and 1st vertical partitions of 9 cm each, which means it is equal to 18 cm plus allowances on both sides. How to calculate the rest is shown in the figure. We cut the strips 14 cm wide so that when folded they are 1 cm less than the main width of the organizer. With the help of the marker () we immediately make a markup, according to which we will stitch them together.
So, we need to cut:Now we sew them according to the markup
We sew parts of the inner walls between the partitions, so that there are 0.5 cm from the top and bottom from the edge of the partition to the edge of the wall.
We sew the outer walls and trim the upper edge with tape
We sew the bottom and trim along the edge with a ribbon, if you want the organizer to fold, sew a zipper into the bottom diagonally from corner to corner.
Now we insert strips of cardboard into the walls and sew the corners again, trimming the edges with tape
Here is our organizer
