Seven Hacks for Repurposing Everyday Items into Storage Containers

Seven Hacks for Repurposing Everyday Items into Storage Containers

You do not have to spend a fortune on products to help you organize your stuff. Instead, take advantage of materials you likely have at home.

  1. Hang a clear plastic shoe organizer on the back of a door to store cleaning supplies or inside a pantry large or small to store small food items like popcorn, hot chocolate mix, or snacks like protein bars to free up shelf space. The same holds true for your linen closet or clothes closet.
  2. Hang a pegboard on the back of a door to hang BBQ tools.
  3. Store earrings, rings, and similar small items in ice cube trays.
  4. Tuck extension cords in toilet paper rolls.
  5. Use an empty tissue box as a plastic bag dispenser.
  6. Use Command hooks to support appliance cords. Hang your hairdryer on one hook and its cord on another. Attach a hook to the side of a food processor, blender, or mixer, and wrap the cord around the appliance and secure it to the hook.
  7. Fold and store sheets into a matching pillowcase.
