I often receive questions about organizing tools, and though I’ve shared ideas in scattershot fashion across many posts, I thought I’d organize everything in one post, sorted by room
Because we’re all stuck inside so…maybe a good time to tackle some of these projects?
My leading tip for keeping clutter to a minimum is investing in a lot of these Stori plastic bins (seen above), as they line more or less every drawer in our home…
The Best Closet/Dresser Organization Gear.
+Drawer dividers — much easier to stay in the habit of folding clothes neatly with these in place.
+Slim velvet hangers and hanger clips.
+Acrylic shelf dividers.
+Fabric cube storage bins — we have a great closet with built-in shelving, and many of these bins slide right in / along the top shelf of our closet. Easier to keep things organized/tidy-looking and then you can just select the bin you need. I also have used these (different shape) for the children’s clothing. I like the window on the side so you can see what’s in there.
+Underwear drawer organizer.
+Ziploc space bags. If you’re really short on space, these are the best way to keep out-of-season clothes compactly stored.
+Underbed shoe organizer.
The Best Bathroom Organization Gear.
+OXO shower caddy.
+I organize all back-up/sample cosmetics and skincare in these pouches, organized by hair, makeup, skincare, travel, etc, and stow them all in a big tupperware.
+Medicine cabinet / drawer organizers — and these, too. I have these in all shapes, sizes, and configurations.
+Acrylic cube for makeup.
+Bath toy bin (<
+Pottery Barn glass canisters for qtips, the best facial cotton known to woman, etc.
The Best Kitchen Organization Gear.
+Cutlery organizer — the expandable one fits nearly any drawer size.
+Shelf risers are a must if you’re short on cabinet space. These are incredibly heavy-duty and well-made.
+Napkin dispenser.
+Gorilla grip drawer and shelf liner — great for cabinets housing pots and pans.
+MDesign storage bins.
+Reusable produce bags.
+OXO sponge organizer.
+Simple Human trashcan.
+If you don’t have a dedicated drawer for baggies/saran wrap/foil, I loved these for keeping them organized under our sink.
+Soda/sparkling water organizer for fridge.
+Snapware.
+Stepstool — pretty enough to keep out.
The Best Utility Closet/Pantry Gear.
+Sugar and flour keepers.
+Pasta keepers.
+Spice jars.
+Tosca storage baskets — great for stowing bulky/awkward things like bags of chips or pasta.
+Steel wire shelving.
+Pencil boxes — I use these to stow batteries, tape, pens/markers, staples, and other miscellaneous supplies.
+IRIS storage bins and sterilite storage bins for a range of things — we use these for everything from mittens/gloves to stationery to art supplies.
+White plastic storage bins — great for under-sink / laundry, too. Inexpensive but great way to keep “like” things together — i.e., all overflow toothpaste and toothbrushes and floss; all cleaning supplies; all dog gear; all light bulbs.
+Acrylic cube for medicine/first aid. We use the different compartments for things like bandaids, cold remedies, stomach ailments, etc., so all is easy to find.
+Umbrella stand.
+Step ladder.
+Miele vacuum.
The Best Laundry Room Gear.
+Laundry detergent tote.
+Over-the-door ironing board hanger.
+Stackable laundry baskets. These never warp/crack and the handles make it easy to carry.
+If I had the space — this hanging rack.
+Minky ironing board and Rowenta iron.
+This is advertised for the bathroom, but in my old apartment, I actually slid something just like this right alongside the washer/dryer and it was a great way to hide all our laundry detergent, dryer sheets, and cleaning products.
The Best Nursery Organization Gear.
+Cutlery organizer — the expandable one fits nearly any drawer size.
+Pehr designs bins.
+Wipes dispenser.
+Drawer organizers – – shapes are great for stowing diapers, tiny socks, etc.
+Laundry hamper — currently on sale! I have this in the blue for Hill’s nursery.
+Children’s hangers.
+Ikea Kallax shelving unit and rattan bins.
+Under-crib/bed bins.
Miscellaneous.
+Cable ties.
+Cable covers.
+Label maker — I use this on everything from my spice jars to those white plastic storage bins. I’m mildly to moderately obsessed.
+Child cabinet locks.
P.S. How to build a baby layette.
P.P.S. The best affordable sources for stationery.
P.P.P.S. Spring fashion under $100.
