Lately I have been buying mineral water in jugs, quite large containers holding 8 litres. After wondering for a while how to turn the empty containers into something useful I came up with the idea of transforming them into office organisers.

At the moment I like using decorative tapes because they are just so easy and pretty. In this particular case the tape is very good to cover any rough edges.
