I’ll be the first person to admit I am obsessed with anything that will help me get organized. Because I am also obsessed with anything DIY, these creative DIY organizing ideas for back-to-school really inspired me. How about you?

While you can certainly spend a ton of money or items that help keep your school supplies organized, why not use items you already have lying around, along with some basic craft supplies, to create your own organizing tools. These are great for helping preschoolers just getting started or even college students who are looking for ideas for their dorm room.
