1 – Classic hollowed-out book

Just mark a square inside the book and then use a knife or oscillating tool to cut out several pages at a time. Shake out all the loose debris and use super glue to line the inside of the cutout. You can also buy a book safe if you don’t want to DIY.

2 – Fake plant with plant box

Fake plants are easy to pull apart and they have a little storage area right inside where you can store small items.

3 – Envelope behind a drawer

Want to hide a letter or document? Find a drawer whether it’s in your dresser or the kitchen and grab an envelope and tape. Tape the envelope to the back of the drawer where no one ever looks.

4 – Empty paint can

For big items, use an empty paint can. Just make sure to clean and dry it before placing items inside and seal it well.

5 – Keys in a bottle

Get an empty medicine bottle, a rock with a flat side, gorilla glue, and hot glue. Add hot glue and gorilla glue on the lid rock, and stick it together. Make sure to seal any gaps, then let it dry. Find a good hiding spot outside where you can place the middle. Make sure the rock is aligned perfectly with the surface.

6 – Multi-Book Safe

Take two large books, place them on top of each other, and measure the safe. Cut the rectangle in the middle, making sure to leave the top of one book and the bottom of the other. Glue them together. Once dry, glue the safe.

7 – Hidden Picture Frame Wall Safe

Trace the size of the safe onto your wall. This requires that you have a drywall or sheet rock installation. Use a drywall saw or a jab saw to cut out three sides of the opening. Once done, score the left side of the paper on the drywall. Grab your safe and do a dry fit in the wall. Screw one side of the frame to the wall and attach a velcro to the other side.
