How to store things
Pantry
Before: everything is mixed
Despite the fact that there is a lot of free space, all goods are scattered in different places and it is not clear what and where is located.
After: everything is clear and in its place
In addition to containers and baskets for products, labels have been added to make it clear where and what is located. You can paint or decorate the walls if you wish.
Shelf in pantry or garage
Before:
When there is such a shelf in a house or garage, as a rule, people put on it everything that is bad, but even such a place can be properly organized.
After:
Baskets, buckets, and miscellaneous shelves will store items that were previously just scattered around.
Use the space under clothes hangers
The painful issue of storing kitchen utensils in a small size will help to solve a pencil case. It can be used to store large dishes and rarely used household appliances. Top cabinets with a height to the ceiling will allow you to gain additional usable space. In addition, storage in the kitchen should be organized - think in advance for each item its own place.
Kitchen drawer
Complete chaos reigns here. Everything that is not needed or lies badly, sometimes simply folds into such a box, which is why many things are simply forgotten, but you can approach everything wisely.
Hooks and a thin metal mesh for the magnets on the doors, as well as several baskets and shelves for spices, not only look great in the drawer, but also allow you to intelligently organize and hide certain things.
Everything lies wherever it is and it is difficult to find the right things. Among all this pile, there may also be old sprays and bottles, which are time to throw away and replace with something new.
There are glass containers, a basket for a hairdryer and other hair care items, a pull-out shelf, an organizer for all sorts of little things and a basket.
Drawer in the desktop
You can make shelves, purchase one or more organizers, or small baskets that fit in size.
Small kitchen pantry or kitchen drawer
The baskets appeared with tags. Moreover, labels are used, covered with graphite paint, on which you can write with chalk, which is very convenient if the contents of the baskets change. You can buy paint at specialty stores or office supplies. Cardboard can be used for labels.
7. The rings from the old bathroom screen can be attached to the hanger and used to store all baseball caps, scarves, and T-shirts (T-shirts).
8. To make it easier at your desk, you can use LEGO pieces. Some of them are attached with double-sided tape to the table, while others are already attached to them.
9. If you do not already have a place to dry your clothes, use a ladder or stepladder.
In this example, a small ladder was hung from the ceiling, but you can simply lean it against the wall or buy a ladder on the steps of which you can hang clothes.
23. If you hang a shoe organizer in the bathroom, you can store various things in it - shampoos, combs, hair dryers, creams and lotions.
24. Cords and cables can be tricky to hide.
The basic principles of storage are as follows:
- every thing must have its place;
- the frequency of the use of things is taken into account;
- the principle “thing to the house - thing from the house” is used;
- rare duplication of things;
- no need to shop for things that will not be used.
Big problems always arise when you need to place a lot of household items, products in the kitchen.
Storing things in the closet on hangers
If you are equipping not a cabinet, but a built-in wardrobe or dressing room, then you may well face such a problem when the rods hang too high.In this case, a special pantograph will come to your rescue, designed for arranging tall cabinets and dressing rooms. The essence of the work is simple - it is installed at the height you need, and if you pull on the central crossbar, the bar extends and falls down.
Purchase special hangers to store specific types of clothing. For example, it can be a hanger for trousers and ties. They are easier to remove from the clothes you need, and they take up less space in the closet;
It is very common to see cabinets with high and deep shelves. Storing things in a closet in this case will be very inconvenient. But for such a case, they came up with special devices - shelf dividers. With their help, things will lie neatly in piles and they can be laid out as high as possible.
And in order to quickly and beautifully fold sweaters and T-shirts, purchase such a device. With its help, the shelves will be in perfect order. The principle of its operation is simple:
- put the T-shirt on the unfolded device,
- then fold the sides of the fixture,
- then the central part.
- The beautifully folded T-shirt is ready.
One of the best helpers in organizing the correct storage of things on the shelves are various baskets. They can serve as a place to store jewelry and accessories, underwear and other little things. Give each basket a different purpose and forget about clutter.
If the shelves in your dressing room are very high and deep, install a hanging shelf that fits directly into the niche. Thus, you sort of divide the height of the shelf into two parts.
Clothes storage
New shelves have been added with folded T-shirts, sweaters and other clothing. At the same time, a place for a hanger has been preserved. There are baskets in which things are also stored.
You can add labels to baskets and boxes so you know where what things are. You can also keep your shoes hidden in boxes neatly on the shelves. On each box, you can glue a photograph printed on a regular sheet (black and white can be used) of the shoes that are in it.
How can you store shoes
Install a shoe organizer on the back of a door or on a wall inside a closet. This will be a great place to store shoes and sandals without taking up a lot of space.
For storing summer shoes in winter, a shoe organizer box is ideal. They put all the sandals and put them on the upper shelves before their due date.
For me, transparent shoe boxes are ideal. By storing shoes in them, you can always see which pair is in it without taking out your shoes. But if you could not find such, then ordinary boxes can be an alternative, and on them you can glue photographs of a pair of shoes stored in it.
And of course, about the storage of boots. I would never have thought that boots can be hung ... on hangers! To do this, you just need to purchase trouser hangers from the store, which have special clips. Only on these clips you need to hang the boots by the tops. By the way, you can store them just under the clothes hangers.
20. Additional shelves for shoes.
21. To save more space, you can attach a hook to the bathroom door to hang the laundry bag on.
22. Having fastened together several ordinary boxes, you can make an original wardrobe for clothes, shoes and various little things.
You can fasten them together in several ways, for example, using screws or paper clips.
25. Do-it-yourself wardrobe from an old step-ladder.
- stepladder
- screwdriver
- wooden pin
- a pair of boards (in this example, their length is 1.5 meters)
- two pipe clips (will hold a wooden clothes pin)
- drill
- long screws.
1.Use a drill to remove the hinges from the ladder.
2. Attach pipe clips to the top of each ladder half to hold the wooden post.You can use, for example, a wire to secure a pin, which will then hang your clothes.
3.Use screws to attach the boards to the ladder (see picture). One board below and in front, another above and behind.
* If you wish, you can paint the cabinet.
* Sand all wood parts if necessary.
Shoes and bags should have their place in the closet. At the same time, for shoes and boots it is better to highlight the lower shelves, or build a small barbell for them. It is convenient to store high boots on it, having previously hung them on hangers with clothespins. Thanks to this, they will not lose their shape. For bags, you can highlight the top shelves. To prevent the accessories from wrinkling, it is worth filling them with paper. Then they will keep their shape.

10. Store your jeans and handbags conveniently.
To conveniently store your jeans, you will need hangers, regular rubber bands, and paper or cardboard.
Just hang each pair on a hanger, cut a small tag out of cardboard or paper and write on it the signs of each pair or where you usually wear these jeans. After that, make holes in the tags and use an elastic band to attach them to the hangers.
Buy a plastic basket and put all your handbags in it. You can fold bags of different colors and styles into several small baskets.
But first, take a photo of each handbag, and put the printed photos in an album. This way you will know in advance which purse you want to take with you and where it is stored.
You can do the same with shoes - take a photo of each pair and glue the photo to the shoe box so you know which box is in which shoe.
Organization and storage of things in the apartment
Kitchen drawer
Home laundry or a place with a washing machine
There are drawers and a couple of new shelves with baskets for neatly storing things, including towels. The wall was painted and the floor was decorated. The ceiling was decorated with a beautiful light fixture and paintings / photographs appeared on the walls.
Large pantry
It is difficult to find the right products or containers in such a pantry. The shelves are just randomly littered with everything.
You don't need to change much, just add a couple of baskets, extra organizers, drawers, bins and small individual shelves. Arrange everything in the way that suits you and, if you wish, mark the necessary places with labels.
