DIY: repurpose a cassette storage unit.

  

     { after }

         Repurpose an old cassette storage unit 
     to organize your favorite things.


     { before }

          I bought this cassette storage unit at 
    local Thrift Store for only $3.99.  

                    Supplies needed:
                             screws
                             drill
                             pencil
                             measuring tape
                             level
                    
           Pick a place where you would like to display
    your cassette storage unit.  If there are not already 
    holes in the unit make two holes.  Make two dots 
    with the pencil on the wall where you are hanging 
    the unit. Use the drill to make the holes where you 
    made your pencil markings on the wall.  After 
    making the holes you will need a friend to line up 
    the holes from the unit and the holes in the wall 
    you made. Then add your screws with the drill.  

           In the picture above I used it to display cars in 
    a boy's room, but you can use it to organize many 
    different kinds of things. You can even remove 
    shelves from the unit to make them fit larger items.
