Things you need

- Craft essentials (Scissors, glue, knife, and ruler)

Steps:
- Take 2-3 empty cereal boxes and cut them at one-fourth length from the bottom to make the front row of your organizer. Take another two boxes and cut them in half for the back row.
- Attach the toilet paper rolls to each other with glue to create spiral tubes of different lengths.
- Place the longer tubes into the back row and the smaller ones in the front row cereal boxes.
- Once the structure is ready, cover each individual piece with colorful paper using glue. Add the ribbons to the tops of the spiral tubes. You can paint beautiful motifs on the boxes with acrylic paint.
- Once everything dries, fix them in the original structure design using glue and tape.
