DIY Cup Cup Sleeve Tea Organizer - reorganized drawer Don't use hot cup sleeves? Or do you save hot cup sleeves? You can use them for a tea organizer! Or, apply the same concept using sturdy paper or thin cardboard, cut long strips and fold into a square to make this tea organizer.

Total Time: 20 minutes

Supplies:

hot cup sleeves
cardboard box (as the organizer)
tape
scissors

Steps:

I don't use hot sleeves and used to toss them out. During this quarantine I've been re-thinking a lot and trying to reuse/conserve even more now. I opened the sleeves and folded them into square shapes.

Essentially you'll need to find a box or container. The original box these sleeves came in actually works best so that is what I used. I just trimmed the box down with scissors to fit in my drawer.

Now using tape, tape the top of the squares together.
