Dealing with daily organizing challenges at home? The good news is that you likely have a plethora of solutions within your own living space. By being creative,
thinking outside the box, and repurposing items, you can tackle these issues efficiently. Here are a bunch of ideas:
1. Utilize tote bags by the doorway for "in and out" items like library books or the knitting project you've been working on while you commute.
2. Optimize small tote boxes (one person's name labeled on each box) for winter items like scarves, mittens, and hats, placing them at a child-friendly height.
3. Use simple hooks for neatly hanging umbrellas, hats, and pet leashes...or to keep keys easily accessible by the door.
4. A short, wide-mouth vase
can keep cooking utensils together and right near your stove.
5. Secure jigsaw puzzle pieces and the box cover in large in Ziploc bags.
6. Repurpose old, but pretty, tea cups to collect loose change...or a serving tray you're not using to display perfume and cologne bottles.
7. Use shoeboxes covered in decorative wallpaper to store crayons and other kid art
supplies.
8. Transform an empty shoebox into a cord and charger holder for electronics.
9.
Repurpose mason jars as pen and pencil holders...or to store ribbon/embellishments for crafting. You can also use them as holders for screws, nails, and nuts, each jar designated for a different type of hardware.
10. Repurpose a clean garbage can to hold long handled tools or sporting equipment,
like baseball bats.
