Think, Plan, Organize And Do It

Keep Your Makeup Organized

Keep all your beauty products organized at your desk or vanity with trays, catch-alls, and most importantly, plenty of nearby drawers.

Have a Special Place for Bread

Built-in bread baskets will elevate any kitchen. This way they’ll stay fresh, easy to access, and tucked away.

Lean a Storage Ladder

Keep extra blankets and linens on a stylish or repurposed leaning ladder in the bedroom. This can also work in a living room or family room when the trow blankets aren’t being used.

Beautify Firewood Storage

The details like the firewood storage unit and timeless chandelier create a polished aesthetic while the reclaimed wood coffee table and blue and white color scheme ensure approachability. The open cabinet for the firewood is functional, but keep the wood out in the open also adds homey, inviting appeal to the space.

Label Your Laundry Baskets

We all know folding laundry is the most grunt-worthy part of all laundry related-grunt work. Make things easier on you post laundry by labeling baskets with each item so you can have an easier time putting it away. It’ll make staying organized a tad less painful.

Put Shelves over the Door

Don’t even have enough wall space for classic floating shelves? Opt for one thats sits above the doorframe. You can keep stuff up there you don’t use frequently but don’t want to stash in a more permanent storage location. Then add extra cubbies for shoes under a bench by cutting plywood and painting it the same color as the bench.

Repurpose Kitchen Items in the Bathroom

Use a vintage tray to keep your bathroom goods looking organized and chic. Then just use an extra glass from the kitchen for your tooth brush and tooth paste.

Slide It Under the Bed

If you have empty space under your bed, put your out-of-season clothing in plastic organizers, or opt for rolling crates. Storage solution, but no power tools required.

Repurpose Old Cans

Leanne Ford repurposed old soup cans to make wildflowers pop above the kitchen sink. Use food cans as a vases, pencil holders, or whatever else you can think of. If you don’t like how they look as use, paint them.

File Away Serving Trays

This filing organizer is ideal for heavy serving platters, cutting boards, and trays, because it screws into the bottom of the cabinet and won’t wiggle as you pull items in and out.

Get a PVC Shoe Rack

This PVC shoe rack is genius: Find pipes that are just the right size for your shoe collection (she recommends about a 6-inch diameter), cut them down to shoe-length, and stack together using pipe glue. Ta-da!

Find Antique Pieces With Hidden Storage

Last minute touch ups are usually a stressful mess. But by adding a secret area behind a mirror to store makeup or accessories on your coat rack, it’s suddenly the easiest part about getting ready.

Install a Sliding Pantry

The skinny space between your fridge and the wall is prime real estate for organizing canned goods (and a cute chevron surprise never hurts).
