You can also use them to organize messy junk drawers. They are perfect for my kitchen drawers and can be stacked on top of each other and if you are going on a trip just fold one like this to easily pack your jewelry, the jewelry is organized and protected and will barely take up any space in your suitcase. Next is this magnetic pocket with window and it is perfect for keeping your pins and dry erase markers on your refrigerator to quickly mark dates on your calendar if you have kids and take a lot of car trips, this over the chair storage is amazing, It comes in many colors and fits over the center console and back seat of most vehicles.

dollar

tree boards and make it a little more functional also, you only need five inches per seven inch picture frame, Dollar Tree sells a lot of these and you'll just want to take the frame and hot glue it to the board, then you'll take the frame bracket and hot glue it on the back. later. You can display it like this. or I like this and of course write whatever you want on it, as a reminder, an inspirational quote or a table task for a special event, and I have to recommend this chalk writing pin that you can get in the crafting section from the Dollar Tree.

I'm using this 8 x 10 inch one and you can display it a couple of times. In different ways, the dry erase board has magnets on the back, so you can place it on your refrigerator or even your washing machine, or you can go ahead and stick the frame holder on it and display it as the board upright or sideways, so now while you are choosing a photo frame, you can also choose one of these display easels, they are a perfect stand for your phone or tablet.

The following is one of my favorite ways to use these

The hooks stay on the trash can great, just ask my resident Club inspector. The hooks also work great with these shower caddies. Simply check out the back of the door and hang a cart for easy access to anything you might need. like these are some of my outdoor needs for this time of year.

I can take them and go. I also love these hooks that work well on glass tile, metal and fiberglass surfaces.

One thing you may not know is that they have a hook on the back and combine them with one of these metal garden hooks and you can hang the light above a door frame, a shelf or under a sink without damaging it. I can also combine the metal garden hooks with these storage containers. They come in many colors, but I have the gray ones and just add the handle from one of the Dollar Tree rooms for some extra storage in the laundry room or garage. to fit three of the containers on the handle and it's very sturdy now, instead of the bench, you can always use these little square containers or round cubes.

I do a lot of crafts so this is my current setup for easy access to everyone. my foam and paint brushes, another item that I think is super useful is this long reach pickup tool. You can usually find it in the Auto section of Dollar Trees, but I use it to help retrieve socks or any items left behind in my washer or dryer. Works. Super good and saves me from having to move the entire unit to recover the loose item. Below is a different way to use these sheet rippers. They are great curtain pulls, the cheapest pulls I have been able to find or nine bucks around here. on Amazon and you may be able to find them even cheaper, but it's hard to beat four for a dollar, they fit around the curtain to help you when you clean the blinds or vacuum, or you can just make your cat happy so that Now I can see a little better out of his favorite window.

I'm a big fan of these metal risers. I use them in my kitchen and bathrooms, but they can also be used to hide modems and cables behind TVs. This is what was behind my TV before the lift with lots of cables and a mess and after adding the lift there seems to be nothing behind my TV and the legs of the lifts are barely visible. Of course, you can add a shelf if you want, but I think this is a great option.

Use one of the dollar trees over the door wreath hangers and if done correctly, the basket can hold many things. This is of course designed for light clothing, but I wanted to show you that it can also hold heavy items for video purposes.

Another car tip is to grab one of these mega carabiners, then add your shopping bags and place it around your headrest to keep your bags off the floor and prevent items from rolling around in your back seat. You can also hang your bag. Also below, these lint spray bottles are a great way to have a mirror cleaner in all of your bathrooms. This is my favorite cleaner from Dollar Tree and instead of storing the entire bottle under every bathroom sink throughout my house, I just fill one of the small ones. Bins clean mirrors and place them in a bathroom drawer for easy access.

These cooking racks are great for cooking, but can also be used to display sunglasses or jewelry and can also be spray painted any color to best match your decor. The same goes for these sink mats, they can be attached to hangers with clips to hold your sunglasses or earrings and the following things are not too much tricks but more products that I really liked and wanted to share but first I have to do it.
