Handy storage solution created from simple magazine files

Looking for a neat and practical solution for storing all your bin bags, vacuum cleaner bags and cleaning cloths? If you are, check out this idea involving simple magazine files attached to the inside of your cupboard doors!

The pens come in a range of different nib sizes and colours, so you can get as creative as you wish by adding your own designs. Alternatively, keep things simpler by using our handy template.
