1. Homemade Hanging Basket
Maximize your closet's vertical space with this clever tiered storage basket.
Head to the Dollar Tree and grab clear shower rings and large plastic storage bins with holes on the sides.
Use the shower rings to connect the baskets to each other, ensuring that the bottom of one basket connects to the top of the next.
Additionally, ensure that the top basket has shower rings attached to its top holes. This allows you to connect the basket to the rod in your closet using these rings.
Hang it up, and you've got yourself a great way to use the extra hanging space in your cupboard.
2. DIY Sunglasses Holder

Grab three acrylic photo frames from Dollar Tree: one large and two smaller ones.
Remove the photo inserts from the frames.
Use a strong adhesive to glue the smaller frames to the larger one.
Apply the adhesive to the base of the smaller frames and stick them onto the body of the larger frame.
Stack one on top of the other.
This creates a platform for storing sunglasses. It's a sleek addition to any closet and keeps your sunglasses within reach.

Glue three pegboards together side by side to form a base for the shelf divider.
