The Lego Desk Organizer

If you're like me, you've probably tripped over your kids' discarded legos about three billion times. And, you've also probably wondered: Might these mercilessly hard chunks of plastic have a better use than leaving little square imprints on my feet?

Believe or not, they do! Just a few legos can be converted into a colorful, and just downright precious pen and pencil organizer for your desk or a holder for your childrens' many crayons. Here's how:

What you'll need:

-Multi-sized lego blocks your child no longer plays with

-Hot Glue

-A large piece of cardboard

Organize the various legos in a rectangular or square shape. Arrange them so their open sides face up. Hot glue them together, and presto! You've got little storage holders for your little one's crayons or tiny toys, OR for your paperclips,post-it notes and push pins. Have your child help you decorate it with lots of stickers. Not only practical, but adorable. Enjoy!
