Do you feel like you have to crawl into your refrigerator to clean it out or find something that was shoved to the back? Refrigerator bins and lazy susans are a solution to that problem. They come in a variety of sizes and help keep your refrigerator clean and organized. The Container Store sells deep refrigerator bins as well as a variety of other size bins. The bins are similar to having extra drawers for sorting your food, sauces or drink items. The Container Store also sells a heavy duty lazy susan which can be used if your refrigerator too. This particular lazy susan is big and strong enough to hold a gallon of milk, a few liters of soda and juice.
Multi Bin Organizer Review
March 11, 2011 Leave a Comment
Multi Cubby Bin Organizer from Brookstone is a great addition to anyone’s home. It’s a fantastic and versatile piece of furniture. Stacking 4 to 8 of them in a basement, garage, or playroom adds a generous amount of storage. One or two sets of cubbies side by side or stacked are great for a child’s room or laundry room. I also like the backward tilt of the cubby shelf. Items are more likely to stay put because of the backward slant. They come in a wood stained finish and in black.
Entryway Or Mudroom Storage

I love the hall tree storage bench from Target. It is a great addition to any entryway or mudroom. It has storage for coats and additional bench storage for other items. This is a great addition for any home. I like having an easy to find place to keep my coat and keys. The mirror and bench help you to finish getting ready. You can take one last look in the mirror to make sure you are looking your best and have a place to sit while you are putting on your shoes. This is also a great addition for people with children. They can keep their backpacks, coats on or inside the bench. The 3 shoe bin from the Container Store can be a nice addition to keep shoes tidy inside the bench. Target and the Container Store Rock!!

Closet Organization Tips
September 25, 2010 Leave a Comment
Are you feeling bad about yourself lately? Do you look in the mirror and you think to yourself, “Who’s that?” Maybe it’s time for you to refine your wardrobe. Have you ever watched the show, “What not to wear?” They have the right idea for wardrobe organizing. They have the client try on all of their clothes in a 360-degree mirror. They give honest options about the clothes and once they are finished they get to buy a new wardrobe. Not all of us can afford a new wardrobe, but we can refine it by purging what does not look good, altering ill-fitted clothing and purchase a few versatile items to complete your wardrobe. Organizing your closet will help you to find something to wear quickly and efficiently.
- The first step is to have a fashion show in your bedroom. Make sure you have a full-length mirror and a friend or family member willing to give you an honest opinion. Try on all clothes you would like to keep to make sure they fit and look nice on you. Make sure your clothes fit properly on your shoulders, waist and crotch area. Well-fit clothes make you feel more confident because you look and feel good. If the item is 1 or 2 sizes too small or too big then donate or sell the item.
- Throw away all stained and damaged clothing.
- Place alterations into a basket or bag and label. If you do not have the funds for alterations then donate or throw away the items.
- Donate clothes and shoes that are uncomfortable, outdated and have not been worn in one year.
- The next step is to install necessary organizers or install a custom closet if you have the funds. Buy decent hangers and get rid of all wire hangers!!! Replace all items in an organized manner. Think of a department store while you replace the items. Place all t-shirts together, dress pants together, etc. Place like colors together too. Once you have a good idea of what you have then you will know if you need to go shopping for a few new items to complete your wardrobe.
