Trash Bags on a Roll

Most of us keep trash bag rolls under the kitchen sink. If you’re a Costco or big box store shopper, you know how cumbersome those oversized rolls can be. I was struggling to keep my rolls together and within reach in this tiny space. So I decided to DIY myself a little trash bag organizer. Check it…

Ack – can you even believe this?! So easy!

And the supply list couldn’t be simpler…

MATERIALS NEEDED FOR

DIY TRASH BAGS ON A ROLL

• 3/4″ Curtain Rod Brackets {I bought mine at Home Depot, but these from Amazon are pretty darn close…and they’ll be delivered to your home. You’ll need 2}
• 5/8 x 48″ wooden dowel {You can grab these already pre-cut in a 12″ length. Or like me you can buy a 48″ length and cut it to your desired length. Mine are 17″ each.}
• Rustoleum Flat White Spray Paint
• Saw {For cutting dowel}
• Hand Sander {For making the dowel edges smooth}
• Measuring Tape
• Screwdriver
• Level
• Pencil

After cutting my dowel down to size, I sanded the ends. This will keep the wood from catching on your trash bag roll…

Then I gave my dowels a shot of white spray paint. This step is optional…

While the dowels dried, I got to work hanging the brackets…

To do this, I just measured where I wanted each bracket to hang under the sink, marked my holes making sure it was level, and then drilled a little hole…

Then I screwed the brackets into place with a screwdriver…

I used 2 brackets sets because I wanted to hang both kitchen and oversized trash bags. Oh yea!…
