The handbag is always full, nothing fits in the wallet. There is a way out! You can make your own organizer using materials from scrapbooking and decorating technologies. A convenient and high-quality organizer will greatly simplify life and help organize all these elements. An organizer or scrapbooking idea is an excellent solution for the ergonomics of your space.
The basis
At the beginning of the work we will need to dospecial palettes designed for the organizer. You can use a thick version of cardboard as a base for this element. The size of the original element is 8 centimeters by 20 centimeters. In your case, you can choose any other size. You need to make two of these palettes. Now we start working on the cover. For this, you will need squares measuring 20 by 20 centimeters. Note that the fabric must be ironed before you start working with it.Next, to make the cover softer andpleasant to the touch, it is necessary to glue the padding polyester material of the same type and size as the padding itself to the padding. If there is no padding polyester at hand, it can be replaced with double-sided tape, on which a piece of fabric was placed on top.
Processing and gluing
Next, we align the elements and trim them so thatmake a base. Place the fabric down on it. It is worth remembering that the cardboard does not need to be glued to the main fabric. It is only necessary to lay it out at a distance of 1.5 or two centimeters from each other. Then, using PVA glue, glue the 4 corners of the fabric for the cover. After the corners have dried, it is necessary to glue the edges of the fabric to the cardboard element. Then, use the organizer retainer. In our case, we used the elastic element. It must be glued to the base with MOMENT glue.We will make the inside of our organizerin black and burgundy colors. Next, we cut out a rectangle from burgundy cardboard measuring 19.5 centimeters in a ratio of 16.7 centimeters. For both sides, 7.5 centimeters of size are measured. Then, using an embossing stick, we draw a special line so that the edges of our cardboard are bent beautifully.

Next, we make pockets with three compartments.In order to connect the cardboard parts, we also use glue "Moment". For one pocket, we make two rectangular elements of cardboard measuring 6 by 7 centimeters (they will be accordion-shaped, like in a regular wallet). At a distance of one centimeter from each other, we draw a bending line. Next, we work on the next rectangle measuring 6 by 19 centimeters.We also make two rectangles 5 by 18.8centimeters. They will become dividers of the compartments and will designate them. The finished accordions must be glued to a rectangle measuring 6 by 19 centimeters, which will be black. Between the folds in the accordion, it is necessary to insert burgundy cardboard rectangles measuring 6 by 18.8 centimeters. All this creation is glued to one burgundy side. Next, on the other side, we make two pockets for cards. Their dimensions will be 14 by 6 centimeters. Two burgundy dividers will need to be inserted into the accordion. Then, glue the pockets to the other side of the base.
Decoration
Next, we decorate the organizer.You can make a sophisticated style, minimalism or pretentious. Use beads, glitter, flowers, butterflies and other decorative elements at your discretion. Such an organizer is convenient to put in a bag and not lose anything! It can be presented as a handmade gift, or used independently to store the necessary things.
