Thought this might get a laugh here. I spent Sunday finally going through my spice cabinet and discovered four separate jars of ground cumin. Every time I was cooking and couldn't spot it in two seconds, I just bought another one on the grocery store.

My cabine ss super deep and narrow, so I was only seeing the front row while everything behind it sat in the dark. Half the cleanout was just me finding stuff from three years ago that had completely lost all its flavor.

Ended up setting up the SpaceAid 2-tier pull-out rack since it was one of the fow options thin enough to squeeze through my cabinet door. The hinges eat up about half an inch of the opening, so I had to measure the actual clearance before screwing the base down.

Taller bottles like vinegar or bulk seasoning jars definitely don't fit on the bottom tier, so those had to stay on a separate shelf. But f or standard spice bottles, actually being able to pull its the tray out mid-recipe instead of playing Jenga with glass jars has been huge.

Anyway, the cabinet is finally under control and my cumin hoarding days are officially over. Curious what kind of random kitchen duplicate everyone else discovered when they finally reorganized their space?

Hall closet which functions as linen/bathroom/cleaning/bag closet.

Does anyone have recommendations on how to organize this better with such a sharp angle? I’m hoping to get better utilization of the space because it is LARGE just not used efficiently.

Love the ideas I’ve seen so far in this group.

I’ve used boxes, bags, etc. but I’m looking for a nice-looking donation bin that can be an ongoing mainstay. I’m always looking to declutter and having an ongoing bin to put things in would be wonderful, but I’m stumped on what to use. I’d love ideas!

Hey all, looking for advice/inspiration on how to organize fabrics for sewing/crafts. I primarily sew garments and accessories, and I incorporate a lot of patchwork/quilting into my projects so I have various sizes of fabric/WIPs in boxes, cases and bags.

I live in a small shoebox apartment so space is limited but I'm able to nail/screw things into the walls, and I have some floor shelving that I can reconfigure space for. Would love to see your set-up to get some ideas and open to any other suggestions to help me make sense of everything.

I put together a SpaceAid toy organizer and am trying to figure out how to sort everything. I also have a few bins from Target, but I'm not sure if I should use those too.
I was thinking of sorting blocks, toy cars, dolls, and art supplies into separate bins. Are labels worth it?
Do you sort toys by type, or just put everything in bins?

Make your own storage container, 3D model files are for free on makerworld.com!

Wife had her hair dryer taking up all the space on the counter - here’s what I built, AMA

I just have all of my scrunchies in a giant box and I wish there was some way to hang them and still access easily.

My daughter's headbands are also just in a basket and I would like to hang them so I can see what I have.

Will comment pictures when I get a chance.

A visual inventory can start with one manageable group of clothes rather than the entire closet. Photograph each piece clearly, use names you recognize, and keep the categories simple enough to browse when you are getting dressed.

I’m behind MUSE for iPhone. This demonstration shows nine wardrobe items together, including clothes, shoes and a bag. MUSE lets you add clothing photos, browse and search them, then plan outfits from those pieces.

Would a photo inventory help you remember the pieces that disappear at the back of your wardrobe?

I cleaned up my landlord's garage to create a storage area for gardening supplies. They were open to letting me do this and helpfully moved heavy things and hung up new shelves when asked. It took about three weeks from start to finish. Very little was thrown away, mostly it just needed reorganization. I started by coming up with a plan for different storage zones and then tackled it corner by corner.

Next on my to do list is to organize my books. I have 250+ books in my collection. I have a pile on the floor in my room. I have piles on my dresser. I have three more piles in the basement. I have a small bookcase filled with books also in the basement. I have several boxes more of books in a storage facility. I could buy some more small bookcases. I converted about half of my library into an online bookstore. I also have a box with several books that I have written. I'd really like to share these books with people and also have them better displayed or more readily accessible.

Greetings,

I make cabochons with epoxy resin and I’m looking for a way to store them so they won’t damage one another. Each cabochon is roughly 40mm in diameter and 7mm high. They cannot be stacked directly on top of one another and they’re easily scratched. Looking for a solution to store at least 500 of these at a time for $100 or less.

I’d thought about coin capsules but the ones that are appropriately sized (2oz) are a bit too pricey for how many I’d need. Another option may be some kind of velvet jewelry tray but am skeptical they’d fit.

Any and all suggestions are most appreciated!

Mine just drapes across a chair each night and I wish I knew a better spot for it. I live with others so I have to stumble around at night to find it before I can leave the room to pee.

My spouse and I have been piling plastic bins and garbage bags full of things into our garage willy nilly. Now, we have a garage full of things that need sorting and organizing. We have some shelves storing plastic bins, but not enough.

Normally I would sort through everything and divide things into donate/keep/throw away, but there’s a problem: there is ZERO physical space to place boxes and bags to organize the stuff. Even after we have sorted through bags, we have so much stuff that we have no place to put the organized items in their final spot. It’s like a game of Tetris in our garage! Additionally we have luggage and bicycles that are hard to take in and out without navigating a path of boxes and bags.

We can’t take everything out of the garage and put it in our driveway for sorting bc we don’t have one and we live along a street with no sidewalks along a highway. We do not have a front lawn or backyard either.

Yes, it’s quite a bed we’ve made and we are lying in it. Anyone been through this before and come out on the other side with suggestions to get through this?

I just got this closet system for my room and it’s all open. And I do want to put my non hangable clothes on here (undergarments, sweaters, t shirts). Does anybody have some advice on how I can store them without them falling off so easily?

Hi. Im in college and i have this chord/tech situation. My this is sitting on my desk and im trying to find ways to declutter it. The Phillips thing is the only way I can keep things plugged on without blowing fuses. Should I mount it or something?
