  • Two 12x12 wooden frames
  • Two sheets of 12x12 corkboard
  • One pack of adhesive-backed felt pads
  • One pack of command strips (for hanging)
  • Paint and paintbrush (optional, for customizing)

With these supplies, you'll have a functional and stylish mail organizer ready to hang in your home or office.

Prepare the Frames

Begin by removing the glass and backing from both frames. You won't need these for your organizer. If you'd like to customize your frames, now is the time to paint them. Choose a color that complements your space and let them dry completely.

Once dry, attach the adhesive-backed felt pads to the corners of the frames. This will protect your walls from scratches and ensure your organizer stays in place.

Install the Corkboard

Measure and cut the corkboard sheets to fit inside the frames. You may need to trim them slightly to ensure a snug fit. Once cut, adhere the corkboard to the back of the frames using a strong adhesive or hot glue gun.

Assemble Your Mail Organizer

Place the two frames back-to-back, with the corkboard facing outwards. Use command strips to attach the frames together. This will create a sturdy, two-sided mail organizer for your wall.

Leave the organizer to dry according to the command strip package instructions. Once dry, your DIY mail organizer is ready to hang on the wall.

Hang Your Organizer

Decide on the perfect location for your mail organizer. It should be easily accessible and visible, so you can't miss it. Using the command strips, hang your organizer on the wall. Press firmly to ensure a strong hold.
