85 Insanely Clever Organizing and Storage Ideas for Your Entire Home.
BY ELISABETH KRUGER.
42.
Use a paperclip holder instead.
I don't find this solution quite as elegant, but it's still quite handy.
And it takes up less space and it's less visible if you don't like the look of the
magnetic strip.
43.
Store your hairdryer in a PVC pipe.
This has to be one of the cleverest things I've seen yet!
Use a PVC pipe to store your hairdryer.
The smaller pipe can easily store another supply like your heat press or even a bottle
of hair spray.
44.
Use the inside of your cabinet doors.
Attaching these little hooks allows you to hang your curling irons and other supplies
so they stay out of your way and the cords stay untangled.
45.
Use an old muffin tin.
A vintage muffin tin can make a great storage container.
All those little compartments are just the right size to store everything you need, and
you can easily pick the entire thing up and move it if you need to.
46.
Try using drawer dividers.
Check out these handy drawer dividers!
This is an easy, temporary solution if you want to make cubbies inside a drawer for small
office supplies.
47.
Stack Mason jars.
Now you can add a vintage touch to your home office!
Stack these jars and they make perfect containers for pens, markers, and other small supplies.
48.
Make an empty tin can organizer.
Here is a simple variation on the stackable Mason jars.
Instead of stacking Mason jars, consider stacking tin cans!
These tin cans have all been spray painted green and glued together so they won't topple
over.
49.
Use a shoe box and toilet paper rolls.
This is the same basic idea as the two above, only you create the arrangement with the tubes
facing upright, instead of sideways, and replace the tin cans or Mason jars with toilet paper
tubes in a shoebox!
50.
Store pens upright in cork trivets.
I like that you can add as many or as few holes as you want in whatever sizes you need.
This would make a fun conversation piece at your day job too.
Make two—one for your home office and another for your day job office!
51.
Create an organizer out of a tree stump.
This is a handmade desk organizer sold on Etsy.
The eco-friendly design features a space for your pens, pencils and markers, highlighter,
scissors, paper clips, iPhone, and more.
52.
Organize your supplies into Altoids tins.
This is a perfect way not only to consolidate office supplies, but also to put leftover
tins to good use that might otherwise just take up space.
53.
Organize your schedule on a clothesline.
Simply label clothespins with the days of the week and hang them on a clothesline.
You can then easily add and remove scheduling notes from each of the clothespins.
54.
Use pails for incoming and outgoing mail, tasks, etc.
You might use this solution for your mail, bills, or even for communicating with other
members of your household.
55.
Use a spice rack holder for craft supplies.
On this blog, you can view a tutorial for how to convert a spice rack holder into an
art supply holder.
Originally the spice rack holder was unfinished wood, but it's been painted.
you can check the links in description.
56.
Use a wine rack to store your yarn.
Looking for an easy solution to storing your yarn in separate, neat, organized cubbies?
A wine rack turns out to provide you with the perfect size spaces.
57.
Store craft supplies in vintage candy jars.
Those jars are perfect for crafting supplies for the exact same reason.
They are ergonomically at a much better angle for reaching in and out a lot than if they
opened on the side or on the top.
58.
Make a ribbon holder use curtain rods and lengths of chain.
I like that this project doesn't require any sawing, drilling, or painting, which makes
it approachable even if you aren't into hardware projects.
Anyone can create this just by following the easy tutorial.
59.
Store glitter in salt shakers.
If you want to keep your glitter contained and also easy to use, salt shakers are the
perfect solution.
If you can find a set like this one which includes the salt shaker holder with the handle,
that is awesome.
60.
Put twine in a sugar dispenser.
Want to keep your twine from unraveling?
Just store the spool inside the dispenser and direct the end of the twine up through
the opening.
61.
Or … use a Mason jar.
Pull the ends of the different twines out through each of the openings, because it allows
you to use a single jar to access half a dozen spools of twine.
They also look kind of pretty.
62.
Store twine using a picture frame.
If you want yet another clever and pretty solution for storing and using your twine,
you can use an old picture frame or the frame from an old mirror.
63.
Use old plastic bottles to store ribbon, twine, or whatever else.
While this is not the neatest solution, it works, and it looks like it probably works
well.
Just cut old plastic bottles so that you can pull the ribbons out and then rubber band
them together.
64.
Store knitting needles in a binder.
Get a binder with sheet protectors, and store your knitting needles inside, backed by card
stock.
Use the card stock to conveniently label them in case you tend to mix them up.
65.
Hang your scrapbooking supplies in a closet.
It may just be perfect for your scrapbooking supply storage!
In this photo you see an easy solution for hanging scrapbooking supplies so that they
stay neat and flat.
66.
Use tick Tic Tac containers for ribbons.
If you enjoy Tic Tacs, save the containers and use them to store ribbons, trim, lace,
washi tape, and so on.
A very cute solution and one which you can use for a lot of different supplies!
67.
Store plush toys using a shoe organizer.
You could also store several small ones in a single compartment—great for keeping them
from getting misplaced.
They look so cute and happy in those compartments too!
68.
Build a plush animal "swing."
Once again, this is a solution I like both because it offers effective storage and because
it's so cute.
Once again, these look like happy stuffed animals.
69.
Use a ladder with baskets to store stuffed animals and other toys.
Old ladders like this one are great for use all around the house.
They have a lovely rustic look, and there are so many ways you can convert hem into
shelving.
70.
Try some bungee cord storage.
They take up a lot less space this way than they would in a box, and they are all actually
much easier to reach, making this a more convenient solution.
71.
Store bath toys the easy way.
One easy way to corral them and keep them out of the way but still easy to reach is
with a hanging fruit basket.
I also like this as an all-purpose shower storage solution.
72.
Repurpose a plant hanger for children's toys.
Instead of a fruit basket, use a plant hangar.
Just skip putting a pot in it, and it turns out to be perfect for holding stuffed animals.
Solutions like these free up wall space and floor space.
73.
Keep game board pieces in their places.
This is definitely the easiest solution I have seen yet.
Simply store all those pieces in a plastic bag and then affix the bag to the back of
the game board.
74.
Store plush animals in a bean bag cover.
They are great for storing stuffed animals!
You just stuff them all inside, and then close the bag so they are contained.
It looks nice and neat, and you no longer have to worry about stuffed animals being
strewn underfoot.
75.
Put pictures on plastic bins so that children understand where to put their toys.
It would be even better if you also included words.
That way children could learn where toys go from the pictures, but also start learning
the words by pairing the words with the images.
76.
Label cubbies or bins with letters so children can learn.
Just as pairing words with images in the solution above would help children learn about reading,
this is another great idea for the same!
77.
Organize kids' stuff (or your stuff!) on a road trip.
You know those shower cubbies with suction cups?
Those are perfect for road trips, because you can stick them to the windshield on the
dashboard and you don't have them rolling around.
78.
Display your kids' artwork on clipboards.
If you have a child going through an artistic phase, he or she will often present you with
a new picture every day.
This wall display with clipboards makes it easy to display kids' artwork and regularly
change the display.
79.
Create a "pincushion" for your tools.
You do it by gluing foam onto a piece of plywood and then hanging it on the wall.
Punch in holes that are the right sizes for your tools.
Mount it on the wall and you are good to go.
80.
Mount paint swatches on a hook.
How can you keep them all organized and neat?
Just mount a hook for them somewhere in your garage or tool shed.
81.
Recycle your tin cans.
Another idea from the same blog that I like is using old tin cans to store supplies.
As you can see, it is easy to mount them to a pegboard right next to your other tools.
82.
Use a belt rack for your wrenches.
What's the easiest way to store wrenches?
The Family Handyman has another great trick here—use a belt rack or tie rack!
Just hang it on the wall, and you can hang your wrenches the same way you would your
belts.
83.
Get these adorable tennis balls to hold your keys and other loose items.
Just grab a box cutter and cut little "mouths" into the tennis balls and add a set of eyes
over the mouth.
The tennis balls can hold keys, cash, mail, and other items.
