@thehomeedit insert bins make the best drawer organizers, and they fit perfectly in these drawers to create snack and beverage drawers for for this cute historic home office in Nashville. @teamgirlilla has the best snack and drink options!

These ‘baby bins’ come in 4 sizes and can be used a million different ways. There is rarely a job that I don’t use them! @thecontainerstore

One of my favorite ways to organize deep bathroom

One of my favorite ways to organize deep bathroom drawers are with Like-It Brick bins from @thecontainerstore. These come in various sizes and colors and are perfect for deep drawers. My favorite feature is you can add dividers which comes in handy when organizing items into categories. I also added a couple of baby bins from @thehomeedit collection for smaller items. These two containers are a match made in heaven!

Like-It Brick bins and dividers also come in a shorter version for shallow drawers.

Happy Organizing!!

This cute, older home did not have a designated pa

This cute, older home did not have a designated pantry so my client and her fiancé purchased this cabinet unit for the back wall of the kitchen which functions beautifully as a pantry.

I used my favorite bins from @thecontainerstore for the main categories of food. These bins come in several sizes and colors and are very versatile and budget friendly. I also used an expandable can organizer and a turntable for bottles. Since there was only one shelf in the bottom cabinet, I added 2 cabinet shelves to create another level for food bins. These are a great way to add space and create additional space in cabinets.
Metal baskets from @target worked beautifully for produce on the middle shelf which is open.

Now, every day food items are visible and easily accessible, which is always a win!

Happy Organizing!!

When I first saw this small, narrow pantry, I knew

When I first saw this small, narrow pantry, I knew it needed new shelving. It had pull outs that were falling apart that did not fit the space at all. There was a 2 inch gap on either side that was dead space. While pull outs are usually a good idea, they were not in this case. I had new shelves cut @homedepot, which was an inexpensive way to reimagine the space and maximize every square inch in this small pantry.

When I was choosing containers to go in the space, I made sure to use extra deep bins, so that things would not get lost in the back of this deep pantry. The XL acrylic bin from @thehomeedit line at @walmart saved the day! They can easily be pulled out to access items in the back.

By switching out the shelves and using the appropriate bins, the space was completely transformed. My client was shocked at the difference!

This pantry recently got a major overhaul and I love how it turned out!

The pantry had extra deep shelving so I maximized the space by using deep acrylic bins and large turntables. These products will prevent anything from getting lost in the back. I’m a firm believer that if you don’t see it, you don’t use it! Items tend to get pushed to the back in extra deep spaces and therefore they don’t get used and eventually have to be thrown away because they have gone bad.

I was able to relocate items like Ziploc bags and trash bags to more appropriate places in the kitchen, which opened up more space in the pantry. It’s amazing what rearranging and using the correct products can do to a space!

Happy Organizing!

Are you looking for extra space in your kitchen ca

Are you looking for extra space in your kitchen cabinets so that dishes are not piled on top of each other and difficult to get out when needed? These cabinet shelves are a great solution to help maximize height in cabinets and separate groups of items for easy accessibility.

Cabinet shelves come in tons of sizes and colors. These examples are from @ikeausa, @tjmaxx & @thecontainerstore. They can make a huge difference and the possibilities are endless!

I recently helped a company move and I’m pretty sure this coffee drawer is going to be a popular spot in their new kitchen! The medium size drawer insert bins by @thehomeedit were a perfect fit for this drawer and helped organize all of the various flavors of Nespresso pods and creamers. I heard a few squeals when I unveiled the new setup, which is always a good sign!

This divided bin by YouCopia is one of my favorite

This divided bin by YouCopia is one of my favorite ways to organize small items. The sections are perfect for pre-packaged drink mixes and small snacks. This bin comes in a couple of different sizes and fits perfectly inside a cabinet. It keeps smaller items contained and visible so you can just reach in and grab what you need.

Happy Organizing!

I’m loving this drop zone that my client and I c

I’m loving this drop zone that my client and I created for her kids to drop their backpacks off as they walk in the door. She has this really cool nook behind her staircase, which is right inside the front door. It’s the perfect spot for out of sight backpack storage, since there is no designated mudroom in the home. I purchased large, sturdy baskets so they would stand the test of time. The larger two are from @worldmarket and have steel wire inside the baskets to help reinforce them. The darker one is from @target. My client came up with this idea, and it turned out great!

My client’s daughter was not into organizing her

My client’s daughter was not into organizing her Barbie doll accessories at first, but then really got into the organizing process after I had finished a couple of rooms in their home. She got on @Amazon and picked out this storage system herself, divided all of the accessories into categories and left notes for me so I would know what to label them! She did an absolutely fabulous job, and I love how this storage system turned out. It organized all of her Barbie accessories beautifully and she can easily find and grab what she needs. I think we have a future organizer in training!

Happy Organizing!

There is something about hot pink hangers that just makes me smile! My client’s 7 year old daughter loves bright pink so I found these cute kids shirt and pant hangers in hot pink on @amazon. She did a fabulous job of sorting and hanging up her own clothes.

When organizing any areas in your home use products you love and have fun with it! If you love the space it will encourage you to use the systems in place and keep them up over time.

This kitchen did not have a designated pantry, so

This kitchen did not have a designated pantry, so I had to get creative with food storage. I took one section of the kitchen and created a makeshift pantry by using the Elfa baskets from @thecontainerstore. These were perfect for the space due to their depth and sturdiness. It really helped maximize the space for food storage.

Just like I would do an any pantry, I divided the food into categories and labeled them for easy visibility and access. The kids loved their new snack bins!

This is a great example of making the best use out of the space that you have. It is essential to measure and purchase containers that maximize the height and depth of the space. These cabinets had great depth, so I made sure to find a very deep container for food storage. This really made a huge difference since the depth of the cabinet was not being utilized. I was able to fit a lot more food in the space when I had the appropriate containers.

Happy Organizing!

This space is ready for its next craft project! My

This space is ready for its next craft project! My client turned extra cabinet space in her new butler’s pantry into craft storage for her 3 kids. This was a great idea since it’s in a central location so the kids can easily find and grab what they need and it’s next to a table where they can spread out their projects.

Two sets of acrylic paper trays fit the upper shelf perfectly and my client’s daughter helped out by sorting the construction paper by color 🌈

We used a divided turntable by @idlivesimply to hold pencils, crayons, and markers. This can easily be picked up and brought to the table when being used.

I can’t wait to see what the kids create next!

Happy Organizing!
