From Pantry to Desk

"I took an empty box of Cheerios and Ritz and cut them into organizers. I later added in shelves to my Ritz box. Also in the Greek yogurt container I’m storing all my plastic bags.

Chopsticks into Plantsticks

I decided to make a lattice so that my plant could stand tall and now it's looking healthier than ever. -Tiffany T. (editor)
