23 super clever organizing hacks that make the most of things you already have in your home
The whole idea of buying “organizing items” make our heads spin a little. As if we don’t have enough stuff already, now we have to buy new stuff to keep all the other stuff looking nice and organized? That doesn’t seem right!
Don’t get us wrong, we love a well-placed storage container, but we’d rather spend our money on buying new shoes than shoe dividers. And better yet, we’d rather just not have another thing to deal with — especially since the average U.S. home is estimated to have more than 300,000 items (!!!).
So instead of buying bins, boxes, and baskets — check out these 23 super clever organizing hacks that repurpose things you *already have* to make your home look (and feel) tidier than ever (and reduce waste!).
