Often it is the little things that spoil the appearance of a room and they are the most difficult to find at the right time. Combs, rubber bands, screwdrivers, glasses, pens, the TV remote control are first lying around in disarray in some place, and after cleaning they neatly lie in an unclear place. If this happens often, an organizer with pockets will come to the rescue.
It was originally intended as a place to store shoes, but over time the convenient item has spread throughout the home.
It’s not at all difficult to make such a thing with your own hands, and it’s not difficult to choose the material. To create a beautiful storage for small items, you will need cardboard or plywood, fabric for the base and pockets, threads, needles, decorative cord and ribbon for finishing, and scissors.
Creating such a piece of furniture will be a good reason to spend time with children and teach them how to make useful things with their own hands.The process itself will not take much time, and the material can be unused jeans, shirts, T-shirts, skirts, leftover curtains or old tablecloths.

How to sew a wall organizer with pockets with your own hands
Having chosen a suitable hanging organizer option and prepared all the required materials, you can begin needlework.
- cardboard is cut to the size of the future organizer;
- the fabric is cut into a base and pockets (they can be made from the same fabric or from different ones. Here everything depends on the imagination of the creators);
- the base is sewn on three sides according to the size of the cardboard with the front side inward, one side remains unsewn. The resulting bag is turned inside out;
- the edges of the pockets are processed using the folding method;
Reference! For greater beauty and functionality, you can make double-sided pockets. To do this, the two parts of the pockets are first sewn together, inside out on three sides, then turned inside out and the remaining seam is sewn.
- After this, the pockets are sewn to the base so that there is space left inside the pocket. The larger the item placed inside, the more space should be left. You can use the method of pressing the side seams of the pocket;
- the base of the organizer is decorated with embroidery, appliqué, and decorative elements, if necessary;
- Cardboard is inserted into the fabric and the last seam is sewn. The edges are treated with decorative tape, and a cord is sewn on top;
Reference! To enhance the strength of the structure, you can attach an additional plywood, plastic, iron, or wooden plank on top.
- The finished organizer is hung on a nail and filled with useful things.
You can make such a necessary device either for yourself or as a gift. For example, on New Year's Day it is perfect for cute gifts from Santa Claus; gardeners will be able to keep seeds and fertilizers, as well as small tools there; fathers and grandfathers will take the useful creation to the garage, and grandmothers will adapt it to elements of needlework.
