organize

ideas

that you

probably

haven't

considered

now. If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen some of these scattered all over my Instagram feed. I'm also in a fancy organization over there, if you don't follow me and you want to check it out, but I'm really excited because I've compiled my 10 favorite organization

hack

ideas

, you name it. call them and they are things that apply throughout your home, things that you can use in multiple rooms and again, they are unique organization ideas so if you are excited and ready for it, let's jump right into this video so my first tip is to use office

products

like letter sorters and file

organize

rs to organize your bags and sandals.

You'll see I have a file organizer at the top and then down I have more letter sorters for some of my bags and more letter sorters for My sandals and flip flops are very easy to put on and take off. I love how everything is divided up and super compact so it doesn't take up much space. This is a tip when you are looking at different organization

products

and can't find something that exactly works for you. Think outside the box. Of course, you wouldn't normally think that an office product would be a good choice for your sandals or purses, but it works perfectly here and I always suggest it.

The second is records management. If you're like me and you work from home and have tons of cables everywhere, you might want to use this tip, so I like to unplug everything at the end of the workday. It definitely doesn't happen every day. It always happens on Fridays, although I like to have a clean space for the weekend, but I actually like to use command hooks and I use them on the side of my monitor stand that way I can keep them there and easy to access, they No. I fall behind my desk and have to move things around trying to grab them and you can use a command hook that fits whatever size cable you have and they won't fall off and it's the perfect solution so I'm going to clean up.

I lift up my desk and show you how it works, so my next organization idea that you may not have

considered

is to use your hanging space creatively, so I already showed you how I store some of my handbags in smaller purses, but I have this closet behind me in our spare bedroom that we use as storage space and I was trying to find a solution for our larger backpacks and tote bags that take up a lot of space so I decided to use our hanging space behind me and use just regular hangers, this is something you can do very easy - you don't

need

to go out and buy extra products and I was able to take advantage of otherwise unused space by putting my purses, totes and backpacks up there, so it's very easy for the backpacks.

I'm just going to put both arms through the end of the hanger and then I like to use the loop on the top right over the top of the hanger that way it doesn't lean forward and then you'll see the tote bags are great. It's also easy to store that way and is the perfect creative solution. The following is one of my favorites and is a solution I found for

organizing

swimsuits. Now I used to throw them all in a bin in my closet and it was a complete mess. I'm sure most of you face the same problem or maybe throw yours in a drawer.

Same problem, but I found these little mesh bags on Amazon and I think I found the perfect size. One piece fits. Fits two pieces. both the top and the bottom and a little mesh bag and I like to put the top where it's actually grouped down in my drawer so I have this flat side up and it looks nice and neat and I fold them of course , in rainbow. i order and use drawer dividers they are bamboo they match my drawers so i like them a lot and i will link them in the description box too but even if you don't use drawer dividers and you don't like the file folding method and you have a container that you throw in your closet or you just want to throw them in your drawer if you put them together in bags like this, they will look much cleaner and more

organized

, you will thank me. and I bet you could find other solutions where you can use these little bags in your closet too, whether it's socks or maybe lingerie items or something like that that you want to keep together and contained, so if you've

never

tried this, I definitely challenge you .

Try it and see how it rearranges your swimsuits. I get questions all the time about how to decant kitchen products, especially you'll see behind me in my pantry. I love decanting items that I used frequently, but very often people ask me what do you do? What do you do with the instructions? What do you do with expiration dates? I love putting the expiration dates on the bottom of the container and then I can wipe it down with a little bit of alcohol when I fill it, but the solution from the instructions or ingredients or whatever you're really trying to keep track of.

I simply cut out the part of the package that has what I want to keep and I like to apply a small adhesive pocket to the outside of my oxo containers or any other containers you have. you're decanting, they're super easy to stick on and all you have to do is slide the instructions or slide the nutritional information into that pocket and then every time you go to cook, right there you know exactly how long to cook things. You know exactly the instructions, it's a super easy trick and it's there for you at all times. If you've ever thought: I love having drawer organizers.

It's great, they keep things nice, clean and tidy, except I hate the fact that every time I open my drawer, they slide because I couldn't get the perfect fit, then I have the solution for you and it's museum putty and gel museum. Now these two magical products are perfect for keeping your drawer organizers in place no matter how hard you open them. that drawer, so I really like to put a little dot of any of them in the corner of each organizer and push them down into the drawer so they don't move. Now the museum gel is

probably

my favorite, it comes in this bigger container and you can just scoop out a little piece, you'll see like this and roll it into a ball with your fingers and then stick it in the corner of the organizer.

I like how it is clear. I love using acrylic organizers, so if you use the museum gel. You don't see it with clear acrylic organizers. Museum putty is not transparent, so keep in mind that you will want to use it with more opaque organizers. Now I have another solution for you if you don't have museum or museum gel. caulk and I don't want to buy either, if you have a glue gun at home you can try making it yourself by putting little glue gun dots on the corners of each organizer that will help keep it from slipping.

By far, it won't hold things in place like museum putty and museum gel do, but it will help quite a bit, so you'll see that when I open the drawer with the museum gel in place, things don't move. . nice and sticky, but not too sticky so as not to damage the drawers, which is also very good, so of the three options, the glue dots with the hot glue gun, the museum putty and the museum gel, I would recommend get one of these museums. gel containers, they will last you, I mean, throughout the house and longer if you buy one of these containers, so this is all you

need

.

This organization solution is one of my favorites in the kitchen, but you can definitely use it in other places in your home and its adhesive acrylic containers now my number one place in the entire kitchen to put it is under the kitchen sink. I use it for cleaning products on both sides, so I have a glass cleaner here, a multi-surface cleaner, and then my daily scrub for the sink. and I love how easy it is to access things. I don't have to bend over completely to go under the sink and grab things. It's right here so I can reach them while I'm still standing in my last apartment.

I used it. Also in my kitchen to store trivets or hot pads, things like that are another great solution so if you feel like you don't have enough space in your kitchen or maybe in your bathroom or somewhere else try sticky containers as they provide storage extra on the inside of your cabinet where you normally wouldn't have any storage space, so if you've been following me for a while, you know this is one of my favorite organization tricks and ideas. If you haven't followed me in a while, I can prove it. I tell you it's one of my favorites because of how often I use it and that's using photo cases to organize small items.

Now I use two different sizes. You'll see this big pile here is the smallest size and then I have a little bit. a larger size that actually fits dryer sheets perfectly so you'll see I have my regular dryer sheets and then dryer sheets for my workout clothes and my workout clothes so I have a couple of these. I also have one for my sheets and bedding but it's the perfect size so I can take things out of the boxes and put them in here and then with my other photo organizers I store bathroom products in there I have some of my craft supplies you see I have some daypull and nyqual, great advice.

You have to cut out the instructions and dosage information and put them in the photo organizer too so you don't lose track of them when you're taking medication, but I love using them for all the different purposes again, you can use them throughout your entire house. Great for spaces where you don't have much drawer space and want to stack them. I have a very deep drawer in my bathroom and I actually fold them and have labels so I can see them exactly. What's all about another great place to try using them would be in your car.

You can keep Kleenex in there, some lipstick, and any other items you want to keep in there, but it keeps it nice, neat, contained, and

organized

. The next requires decantation to a whole. new level and that's decanting your board games into these little zipper bags. Now I bought mine on Amazon in a variety of sizes. I like getting the mixed pack of bags for a particular reason, so you'll see here that I have my Monsters Inc. Monopoly. A really fun version of Monopoly that I've had for a while and I have it in a smaller zipper bag here, but even inside this zipper bag I keep another bag with all the houses, hotels and game pieces like that to keep things from moving around. and then I also have all the rubber banded properties as well as some of the other cards and money, so you're thinking how does the monopoly board fit in here, obviously it doesn't, so I keep the board separate in this drawer where we keep all our games and you will see that it works for other things.

I have a taboo here. You can listen to it and then I also have another version of Monopoly and this version is kind of an old school version and the whole board fits in here so I can put it all in one of the bigger zipper bags and then have zipper bags smaller inside for some of the smaller pieces in the game. Now this solution doesn't work for all games, so we have things. In the drawer here, as if they were playing cards, I only leave the ones that are here. Of course, you could keep them in a small bag if you wanted everything to look uniform.

I also have cards against humanity and these are all cards, so it was a little silly of me. Put it in a zipper bag and just rubber band all of these sections, so I left it here, but if you're someone who has a ton of board games, this solution will save you a lot of space if you think about the size of those. board game boxes I wish I had one here to show you, but of course I've gotten rid of them all. You know these thin zipper bags take up a lot less space and you can fold them so you can see everything nice and easily I used a very large label here you can also cut out a part of the cardboard box that the game comes in and just use some tape of packaging and tape on top and using it as a label is also super fun and colorful and that works really well, so I love this solution.

Last but not least, this business card and gift card organizer has proven to be very useful in the past. I love keeping all my gift cards in one place, that way I don't forget. them and I know exactly where they are so that the money doesn't go unspent. I'm sure some of you have had some gift cards that you've lost track of or just completely forgotten you had and haven't spent that money, so when you have it all in one place and it's nice and organized well, then you'll remember to use those gift cards. Now it's a great place to put coupons and organize them too.

You won't forget them. I'm sure you use them andthen of course business cards, now most of my business cards I get from other people. I try to digitize those contacts or take a photo of them or something if I really want to keep that person's information. often you get business cards and you just throw them away because you don't need to know that information and I would definitely recommend that you throw away business cards that you don't need or digitize them, but it's a great place to put your I have my own personal business card, like this I have some for work.

I have some for fancy organization here and I like to keep them here so I have all my backups and I can grab some and take them with me when I go somewhere or send mail. something that might need a business card, so I would also recommend looking into a greeting card organizer. I have one of those too. In fact, I showed you how to set it up in my holiday prep video, which I'll link in the cards above, so greeting card organizers as well as business card and gift card organizers are a great solution. .
