DIY Organization: 5 Ideas For Your Home

Organizing your home can be quite the daunting task - the shelving units, racks, and gadgets made for home organization are pricey, and let's say you aren't the creative/crafty/DIY type. Look no further, because here you will find organization tools for your home that are inexpensive, easy to use, and completely idiot proof!


1. Who can stand all the loose baking sheets, pot lids, and carving boards that seem to fly out whenever you open the cabinet door? I bet you never thought that something that sits on the desk in your office is the perfect solution to this common kitchen problem. A tool as simple as a desk organizer with slats (see picture below for reference) will house your loose items and slides easily into your bottom cabinets. Say goodbye to the avalanche effect!















2. All the men should enjoy this one - can you remember the last time you spent much too long digging through your toolbox to find one wrench? Never again. All you need to do for this one is purchase an ultra-cheap tie or belt rack (chances are you already have one) and mount it onto the wall in the garage. From there, you can hang your tools by height so you will never have to rummage for the tiniest wrench ever again.















3.  This one's for the ladies. If you have a sewing or craft room (or even an office-gone-craft-room, which your husband isn't particularly crazy about), chances are you chose the smallest room in your your home. This doesn't leave much room for boxes and bags of ribbon, sewing supplies, art supplies, or spools of wrapping paper on the floor. One way to fix this problem is to hang a pegboard onto your wall, fill the holes with nails and hooks, and hang your wanted items on the board. You can even dress it up by adding a coat of paint that feels artsy and inspires you!








4.  Bathroom storage closets are small. Trying to fit all your towels, toiletries, medicines, cleaning products, and seasonal items in there is a pain, until I came across this tip. Hang a plastic over-the-door shoe organizer on the inside of the closet door, and from there you can store all your bottles, products, soaps (you name it!) on the inside, saving the room for your bulky towels and of course, your seasonal Christmas snowman shower curtain.





















5.  Now for the grand finale - this quite possibly could be the most creative organizational idea I have seen to date. Simply cut some PVC pipe into small pieces (or have your husband do it), mount them onto the interiors of your bathroom cabinets, and use them to hold your styling tools and keep cords at bay. How brilliant is that?
