Hello World! Welcome Friends! Creating a decorative and welcoming space requires the ability to combine both tidiness and style. Whether you are trying to declutter your living space or making your home look like something straight out of a magazine, you really do not need a lot of money to get it done. You can give your home a lot of style and organization without needing to break the bank. Hopefully, the following creative organization hacks will help.
Tank Tops and the Magic of Shower Rings
Do not underestimate the tendency of tank tops to compete with your other clothes for space in your drawer or wardrobe. And because tank tops are almost an inexpensive staple to almost every bedroom and wardrobe, you have no reason to stop purchasing them simply because you are running out of space in your bedroom. All you need is a simple trick to help keep your tank tops in order. This is where the magic of shower rings comes in. Just grab a pack at your nearest shop, if you don’t have enough at home. Adhere the shower rings to a clothes hanger and hang your tank tops on them by dropping the straps into the shower rings before you shut them. The best part is that you can hang more than just your tank tops – your scarfs, hats, belts, necklaces, ties, etc. can all be stored in the same way.
Recycle Tins Cans into Pencil Holders
You may have come over this idea before, but you haven’t given it a lot of thought. Well, you should. This is because this simple hack comes with so many possibilities. All you need to do, after emptying the content of your tin container, is to clean it thoroughly and then use whichever kind of designing material on the outer surface (or the interior side, if you prefer). You can either embellish, paint, spray, or use the decoupage method to decorate the surface. But you can also simply clean it and use it just the way it is – the choice is yours. These tins cans can be used to hold just about anything that can fit into them. You can use them as pens and pencils holders in your office or use them to organize your toothbrushes, paintbrushes, makeup brushes, cutlery, tiny objects such as buttons, name them. As we said, the possibilities are endless.
Use Old Bread Tags to Organize Cords
Don’t you just hate it when there are so many different cords intertwining behind your electronics? Sometimes, the situation can be so bad that it becomes difficult to locate the end of one cord without taking time to trace it like a crime detective. If you have ever had the need to go behind your entertainment console, you might realize how frustrating it can be determining which cord belongs to what. You may not have the budget to replace most of your device with wireless ones. But you should be able to afford something like an old bread tag, or a few more, depending on how many cords you have. Just make sure you indicate which cable a particular tag belongs to by scribbling the name on the tag. This hack can also be used behind your office computer setup at work. You can also clip binder clips at the edge of a table to ensure that the chargers do not fall to the ground.
Use File Folders to Organize Reusable Grocery Bags
Most people love to store their grocery bags in order to use them again – and this makes perfect sense. Plus, that’s the whole reason why they are called reusable grocery bags. But your bag collection can pile up in a matter of weeks if you shop often, and the last thing you want is to have them laying around and making your home look messy. A simple hack using a file folder will do the trick. You can attach a couple of these file holders (or even magazine holders) to the inner part of your cabinet or pantry doors. Aside from holding your reusable grocery bags, you can use the holders to organize other things ranging from canned food to water bottles. Plus, these file or magazine holders are very affordable and can be attached to so many different kinds of surfaces.
Build a Platform Bed
Do you need a new bed for your bedroom, or do you want to elevate your mattress? You can make use of a platform bed instead. Plus, they are very easy to build on your own. Even if you want to purchase an already built one, you will find them very cheap. They can be arranged into any form you want and can be left exposed or covered neatly by your duvet cover, only make sure to hold your duvet cover in place with the help of duvet clips (not safety pins). Depending on how you design your platforms, you can even create extra room to use as improvised storage.
The Magical Touch of a Vintage Rake
When you think about jewelry, the last thing that will come to mind is an old, vintage rake. But these come together to offer you quite a simple and yet unique display in your bedroom. Most people leave their necklaces tangled together in a jewelry box. But the best way to organize your necklaces is by hanging them. This way, you can prevent those tangles and stubborn knots that can end up ruining them. And you don’t need to pay a lot of money for an expensive jewelry organizer when you can use something as simple as an antique rake unused in your garage. You don’t need the whole rake, just the head. All you need to do is clean it up thoroughly and spray, paint, or design it in whichever way you want. You can hang it in your bedroom or on the inner side of your wardrobe and hang all your necklaces on them. You can also use the hack to organize cooking utensils, cups, and so many more.
