My favorite go to piece for simple storage and immediate organization is the over the door shoe organizer. Forget shoes. This jewel has unlimited uses, and it isn’t overkill to suggest hanging one on the back of every interior door in your home. For the bathroom, use the many pockets to store and separate hair accessories such as bows, pins, and elastics and to keep bottles of hair product visible and readily available. Even if your bathroom has a vanity complete with a cabinet, it is unlikely that the cabinet has compartments or is at a convenient level for grabbing these often needed items, and using one of these organizers, which takes virtually no extra space, will free up the dark depths of under the cabinet to store infrequently used items such as boxes of out-of-season clothes, holiday décor, and extra linens. Hanging a shoe organizer on the back of a laundry room door provides easy accessible cubbies to toss buttons and coins found in the dryer, and an organizer appropriately placed is an excellent drop spot for keys, mail, phones, i-pods, and other cabinet clutter culprits. Using the shoe hanger in a kid’s space will corral crayons, scissors, markers and mess making craft supplies like pom-poms and googley eyes. For good measure, don’t forget to hang one on your closet doors for the original use of keeping pairs of shoes together and at eye level. Another inexpensive and multi-functional storage piece for the home is the clear container shoe box. These can be purchased for a dollar or less from most any chain store. Use these without the lid as miniature drawers on closet shelves to keep underwear, socks, belts, panty hose, lingerie, etc. compartmentalized and visible. These boxes can be stored in the laundry room, stocked as you are folding the laundry, and easily slid into pace in the closet cutting out that last step of the laundry process. Shoeboxes also fit nicely in pantries corralling those little spice and gravy packets that tend to get lost. Use the boxes to group things such as spices and baking decorations, or use them as lidded canisters to empty the contents of bags of sugar, flour, baking mix, pasta, etc. When a new multiple piece toy or game comes to live with you, immediately give it a new home in a hard plastic shoe box eliminating crumpled torn manufacture’s boxes. For puzzles, cut and tape the picture of the puzzle on the inside of the box so it can be seen on the outside and put the pieces inside and put the lid on. Board games and the accompanying pieces, building blocks sorted by size, flash cards, playing cards, etc. can all be easily stored and neatly stacked in a closet, cabinet, or corner. When you need a little more storage, Baton Rouge experts are happy to hold your things. Find one today at http://www.sunshinepages.com.
