With fall right around the corner, it’s a great time to equip your kids for the new school year, and what better way to do this than some DIY projects for the kids’ homework stations? From DIY pencil holders to full desks, you can get your kids set up for success for the start of school.
DIY Homework Station
It’s that time of year again. Book reports, math homework, and art projects. We’ve built a DIY homework station that’s easy to make over a weekend. Plus, this station folds up to limit the space it takes up in your home.
How To Make a DIY Pencil Holder
Sometimes getting pencils back in the box can be tricky for kids of all ages, but not with this DIY pencil holder. If you’re looking for a quick DIY project, this is a great starter project for you or even little ones!
DIY Desk and Sideboard Organizer
If you’re having trouble finding the right desk to fit your child’s needs, build it yourself! This DIY desk and sideboard organizer were designed to provide plenty of desk space along with organizer space for homework, art supplies, or mementos.
DIY Desktop Succulent Planter
If you think building a DIY desk is easier than keeping a plant alive, you’re not alone! That’s why this DIY desktop succulent planter is a nice addition for any workstation. It’s an easy project and introduces a new life skill to your children—keeping a plant alive.
Awkward Space Makeover: Closet Office
We all have those awkward spaces in our home that we don’t quite know what to do with—below the staircase, along the hallway, above the washer and dryer. Each awkward space is unique—this closet desk project provides a solution for turning one of those spaces into a working desk that maximizes space!
DIY Wood Standing Desk
Step aside lower back pain! Sitting at a desk can be a pain, so we created a DIY wood standing desk for kids who would rather stand instead of sitting for extended periods. Whether doing homework or helping you plan your next DIY project, this standing desk is a great addition to provide a workspace without taking up a lot of room.
How To Make a Desktop Organizer
No matter how hard your kids try to avoid it, desks can get messy—loose pens, unraveled cables, or scattered stacks of Post-it notes—and desk organizers can work like a charm. This DIY desk organizer is simple to make, easy to customize, and pleasing to the eye.
DIY Tool Storage Caddy
How often do you find yourself in need of a pair of scissors or pliers only to forget where you last put them? If you could use easy access to common tools around the house, this DIY tool storage caddy is a great solution. You can easily customize it to your needs and tools so you won’t need to wonder where they are again.
How To Make a Storage Pegboard
Sometimes building storage space requires creativity, and this DIY storage pegboard is just that. Whether you need to store school books, show off some kids’ art, or hang headphones, this storage pegboard is a nice balance of function and aesthetic.
Home Organization: DIY Bulletin Board
Inspired by a DIY chalkboard project we did a few years ago, we wanted a bulletin board to post ideas, inspirations, and designs. This DIY bulletin board is a fun project and gives you (or your loved ones) space to hang important reminders, artwork, or a list of chores.
