Thoroughly sanding in this step is super important if you plan to stain rather than paint your boxes. If you don’t completely sand away scratch marks from the 80 grit sandpaper you used in step three, then those scratches will be highlighted after applying stain. Our paper and media boxes are sure to make this easy. And if you’re looking to organize the desk, we’ve got some great desk organizers and mini chest drawers. That way, you get complete control over your pens, scissors and associated items. And if you prefer to keep these things out of sight, use inserts with compartments for your desk drawers. Make room in the living room Step Four: Assemble the pieces of your box with wood glue* at all the joints, taped together with duct tape until you’ve added nails. The box won’t hold together super well with duct tape, so you’ll need to work gingerly as you begin to hammer in brads through the joints. Sandpaper— 80 and 120, and 320 grit (120 is for sanding after box assembly, when a palm sander is handy. I always use adhesive sandpaper when using my palm sander.) Step Six: Paint or stain your boxes. I’d like to talk briefly about both options, because there really is a right and a wrong way to paint and stain wood.

I usually use polyurethane to seal my stained wood. If you’re using a light stain or no stain at all, you may want to use polycrylic instead, as urethane does yellow slightly over time. I cut 1″ wide strips from these felt blankets and put them on either side of the bottoms of the boxes. They slide super easily now. I chose thermally modified poplar for this bench. Normally, poplar would be a poor choice for an outdoor project, but thermal modification changes the rules. Thermally modified wood (TMW) has essentially been cooked, removing the organic compounds. The chemical-free process makes wood more stable and resistant to decay and insects. After allowing one coat of the sealer to dry, lightly sand with a super fine sandpaper or 0000 grade steel wool to smooth out any roughness. Then add one or two additional coats of sealer to finish it off.

The living room may not need the same storage solutions as the bedroom or the office. But it still has a way of attracting clutter and mess all the same. Extra sofa cushions, blankets, the kid’s toys, phone chargers, headphones, you name it. If you can carry it, it ends up in the living room, and more often than not on the floor. Step Two: Use a 1″ hole saw bit to cut out the rounded edges of the slotted handle opening. Then use a jig saw to connect the holes, creating one opening. I recommend practicing on pieces of scrap wood before cutting into your box panels. Centering your hole saw and controlling the jig saw may take some practice to get it right.

A standard courier service (DPD, TNT etc.) is usually used to deliver smaller items with a weight limit of 30kg and a maximum length of 1.5m per parcel. A delivery can comprise multiple parcels with no limit on total weight. Be very careful when tapping the brads into place, particularly into the 1/4″ plywood, because if they’re not perfectly centered and perpendicular, you’ll end up with nails poking out inside or outside of your box. Haste makes waste, or in this case, haste makes more work for yourself! If you're in need of long-time storage, like for summer or winter clothes, transparent boxes are a great choice. With these drawers, it becomes so much easier to know which boxes contain the stuff you need when it’s time to retrieve them.
