I found this desk organizer at a yard sale for 25 cents!  Because I needed more shelfs in my room I decided to turn it into a hanging basket by covering it with fabric.  This is a super simple and cheap project that will look great on your wall.

You can put magazines, flowers, and other items in this hanging basket.  Great DIY wedding project for flower arrangements and to help organize school items.

I used a hot glue gun. You didnt need to use a gorillia product just something that involved an adhesive:

"The rules are simple: make a new Instructable that involves an adhesive to enter the contest. It can be a product from Gorilla Glue or not, just as long as it's stuck together and it's awesome."
