Give New Life to Storage Items

When beginning an organizing project it is important to think outside of the box. Don’t be afraid to give new life to storage items you might not typically choose for projects.

• Fishing tackle boxes are great for craft supplies, and are lightweight and durable.

• Plastic dish pans are the perfect size for most standard bookshelves and can hold varieties of items and are extremely inexpensive.

• Dresser drawers often fit well under beds and stairwells to take advantage of awkward or unused storage locations.

• The durable plastic bags in which comforters and blankets are sold make great soft-sided storage items for anything from holiday décor to seasonal clothes.

Don’t just go and buy every plastic storage box you can find. Instead, think outside the box and bring new life to household items.
