Stylishly store your things with a matching set made out of genuine bamboo. These let you hold 8.5' x 11' paper in the large box, mail or notes from your boss in the medium box, and memos in the small box. The set comes with a large box, a medium box, and a small box. The liner will catch the water and keep your wood from getting wet.We designed the Bamboo Desk Organizer Set to give you a few beautiful tools to store your most used items on your desktop. Note: If you want one side (or both sides for that matter) to be used for housing plants, be sure to insert a plastic liner or something similar before adding your plant. Just be sure to dust off all of the sanded areas before using. If there are any areas that seem un-level, you can easily fix it with an electric sander or sand by hand (which will take more time but still totally works). Remove the clamps, flip the organizer over and itвЂ™s ready to use. And let the entire piece dry overnight (or according to drying instructions on your wood glue packaging) with the clamps still attached.ДЁ. Use a slightly damp cloth or paper towel again to wipe away any excess wood glue that you can see coming out from the joints. Those excess ends will become the legs of the organizer when you turn it back over to use.Д§. You want the ends of each of those two pieces to be up in the air, like you see in the photo. Then, flip over (so the very bottom of the piece is facing upward) and attach the two remaining wood pieces (these are theВ 4.75 x 7.5 inch pieces).

Add wood glue to both of the remaining sides that are still open. Remove the clamps, make sure that the entire piece is secure / solid and then move onto the raised sides. Let the entire piece dry overnight (or according to drying instructions on your wood glue packaging) with the clamps still attached.Д¦. Then, use a slightly damp cloth or paper towels to wipe away any excess wood glue that you can see coming out from the joints. Use two table clamps to clamp everything together while drying, as shown in the photo. I did mine off center, so IвЂ™d have one large side for notebooks, etc and a smaller side for pens, pencils or even a plant.ДҐ. Next, add wood glue to bottom and two sides that will touch the other wood pieces for the middle divider (which is the 5.5 x 4 inch piece) anywhere youвЂ™d like to the inside. These two long side pieces will cover up the sides of the bottom piece to create a seamless look.Д¤. Attach the two long side pieces (the 6 x 12 inch pieces) to the bottom piece. The piece that IвЂ™m holding in my hand in the photo is actually the bottom piece and the one thatвЂ™s on the table is one of the side pieces that will soon be attached.ДЈ. Next, add wood glue to the two long sides of the bottom piece of wood (the bottom piece isВ 4 x 12 inches). Here are the dimensionsвЂ¦.Дў wood pieces that are 4.75 x 7.5 inches (these are theВ side legs)Дў wood pieces that are 6 x 12 inches (these are the long side pieces)ДЎ wood piece that is 5.5 x 4 inches (this is theВ inside divider)ДЎ wood piece that is 4 x 12 inches (this is theВ bottom piece)Дў. Once you have the pieces cut, sand if necessary for a super smooth finish. Especially if youвЂ™re using a smaller power tool, like this one (which is what I use).

As you can make straight cuts, itвЂ™s super easy to do yourself. I was able to find a few of the pieces at my local art supply store in the exact dimensions I needed, so I only had to make a few cuts for the extra pieces that I needed.

Start by cutting down all of the wood you need for the project.

Because usually, I just have tons of stuff on my desk and it gets super annoying after a while. IвЂ™ve been in major organization mode lately and needed something for my desk that would keep my day-to-day items handy but organized.
