August is a special time of year when I can feel the urge to reorganize, both in myself and in others. For me personally, this is the first time in my adult life that my home feels really organized. The mantra I have for myself now is: “Don’t put it down, put it away.” Once a quarter when I scan the organization deeper in our house, it’s a lot easier than it used to be because things usually settle down.
Because of how far I’ve come in this field, I wanted to share my favorite home organization products to keep things organized and in their rightful place.
01
Set of 4 Seseno storage baskets
$30
We have these storage baskets in some drawers, in every closet and in the fridge. We can have a total of thirty around the house! I like that the height of the sides gives you the option of stacking items taller or stacking items shorter and overall everything stays in place and organized. I use these to hold food, medicine, baby toys, various dog things, etc. The handles also make them really easy to pull out if they’re stored on higher shelves.
One thing to keep in mind with all of these containers is that you can’t put them in the dishwasher (we learned this the hard way). Wash them in soapy water and air dry.
02
Seseno Set of 6 stackable storage bins
$17
These organizer bins are great for storing smaller items! I like that they stack up very well to take advantage of vertical space. I’ve used these in the fridge for things like berries, butter and cream cheese, citrus, and spices — they help me keep things like that together. I also use these in my office to store items like thank you cards, stickers, and random tech stuff.
03
The egg carton is completely in the kitchen
$14
I have two of these in our fridge. This product has a lid, which I love because it allows for easy stacking.
04
mDesign Set of 2 Organizer Bins Divided with 4 Parts
$23
These are perfect for holding various snacks and tea bags in our kitchen.
05
mDesign Set of 4 Long Storage Bins
$37
I use these a little less, but when I do I like them to store a variety of items in the freezer and in narrow cabinets.
06
Set of 6 under shelf Veckle
$36
These are great for making use of empty vertical space in cabinets! I use them mainly for small plates, teacups and mugs.
07
yaenoei Set of 2 Storage Shelves
$23
These shelves are also very useful when it comes to maximizing cabinet storage. They pair well with the baskets under the shelves above!
08
POP OXO Good Grips Case (included)
Starting at $11
I keep all of our dry goods in these containers with labels on each. I love that the shape of the containers allows me to easily pack and stack them in our cabinets. They also keep things fresh longer in my experience.
09
OXO Good Grips Set of 4 adjustable bathroom drawers (gift)
$33
These work great for everything I store in my bathroom drawer. The crates fit like a Tetris set and there’s something about the size that fits almost anything I own. They have adjustable compartments so you can customize the size of the portions in each bin to be as small or as large as you want. They also have handles on the bottom so they don’t slide too much in the drawers.
ten
OXO Good Grips Set of 2 expandable drawers and drawers (gift)
$23
I have these in my wardrobe and children’s wardrobe. They make it easier to store my clothes and it’s easier to see all my options at once as I get dressed!
11
Amazon Basics Set of 100 Thin Velvet Clothes Hangers
$43
These hold everything in my wardrobe organized and looks really neat! I love them.
