Helena's DIY Cardboard Closet Storage Designs
Three hand-built concept designs for the closet's top shelf, planned from the reference photo (Media ID 23067f52-6be3-5387-b985-ca52ac2d0f59). Each one uses plain cardboard and tape, kept simple so you can build it in an afternoon and rearrange it later.

Option 2: Tilt-Down Drop-Front Box
A sleek, space-saving design where the front panel tilts down for easy access to stored items. Ideal for compact spaces and quick retrieval.
Double-Wall Modular Drawers
Dense storage for coins and stamps
A stack of slim drawer modules, each built with a doubled cardboard wall so the structure stays rigid under weight. Every drawer is divided into a tight grid of small compartments, sized to keep coins and stamps from sliding together.

Drop-Front Hinged Organizer Box
Concealed storage for a memory box
A front-loading box whose face swings down on a hinge to reveal a quiet interior. When closed it reads as a plain box, so the items inside stay out of sight, and a shallow hidden tray secures a memory box in place.

Compartmentalized Open-Top Bins
Open, ready-to-grab craft storage
Wide, open-top bins with an open face so contents are visible at a glance. Internal divider walls split each bin into several compartments, keeping scissors, brushes, and spools within easy reach.
