If you know me you know that I love to keep my house nice, clean, and tidy. I absolutely can't stand having a mess. So whenever possible I try to come up with clever ideas to organize everything to a tee.
Today I've stumbled upon some awesome home hacks that I know are going to come in handy pretty soon.
One way to find more room in your bathroom to store stuff is to implement the over-the-door storage idea. I can't believe I haven't done that yet. That's so cool and totally out of the way, too.
That's such a neat idea. If you don't have hair clips you can use clips of any kind. It's much better than having all those cables lying all over the place, isn't it? Ha, ha!
Speaking of cables, here's another neat idea. Don't throw away those empty toilet paper rolls, reuse them instead. Doesn't this cable management system look so much neater or what? I'm digging this idea.
Speaking of toilet paper rolls and their clever uses, how do you like this cool idea? I gotta say, I dunno why I haven't started doing that yet. It makes total sense.
Just how do you do that, you ask? Well, I'll let you on a little secret. Buy some denture tablets. Yes, you heard me right. Then drop one in the bowl once a week.
Just because they're designed for the office doesn't mean you can't use them in other ways, am I right? Look how clever this idea is. I gotta say I absolutely love it.
If you need to drill some holes but don't want the mess, no worries. Just use this post-it note trick and you won't have to clean anything afterward. I wonder who came up with that.
If you ever have a need to keep a door from closing on you, listen up. Just attach a rubber band like this and voilà. The door won't close anymore. Isn't that so smart?
Never worry about your toothbrushes getting dusty again. Just install a handy toothbrush holder like this inside of your bathroom cabinet. Oh my gosh, why didn't I ever think of that? Wow!
Are you always running out of space to hang up your towels in your bathroom? I know what that's like. So the best solution for this problem is to install a double shower rod.
One way to find more space in your powder room for some towels and rags is to do this. Just install a few hooks on the counter and voilà — problem solved, am I right?
Are you always wondering, "What happened to my missing sock?" Well, now you won't have to search for it between your washing machine and the wall. Ha, ha! That is such a neat idea.
Apparently, "S" hooks can solve a ton of storage problems. This time, they're being used to organize your grill. Grab a few of these hooks and use them to hang up all your grilling tools. Genius!
Most women keep their bras in drawers, but hanging them up might be a better solution. Hold onto those odd lingerie hangers from the store and use them for your bras. They'll be organized and you don't have to worry about the cups getting crushed.
If it happens to be Taco Tuesday at your house and you're in a pinch, don't worry. Apparently, dish drying racks make great taco holders. Pick up a few from the dollar store before your next fiesta.
If you're looking to get rid of all that spare change, here's a great tip:
"Mini M&M containers fit quarters perfectly. Large tube holds $40 and short tube holds $20," Reddit user BeautifulLilFool said.
Use one of those rubber litter mats as a bath mat when you give your pets a wash. It will help them grip the bottom of the tub and make them more comfortable when it's bath time.
If you have an odd-shaped blanket and can never remember which sides are short, just label the blanket with a permanent marker. Sometimes the easiest solutions are the best ones.
If you constantly have to move your downspout when you mow the lawn, there's an easy solution to that problem. Make a hinged downspout that easily folds up. You just need to cut off a small section of the spout and then reattach it with some screws!
Someone discovered that you can keep bagels fresh by tucking the end of the bag directly into the bagels' holes. That is such a brilliant idea.
That way you can see exactly what you've got in your drawer. It actually takes up less space too if you think about it. I'm totally going to put this to the test ASAP. Right on!
Use pool noodles, a bit of wire, and some netting to protect your garden from critters. This simple barrier can be made with dollar store supplies and is a natural way to keep animals at bay.
It definitely doesn't help that I live in a small house. So finding space for all my stuff is imperative. I'm getting so many cool ideas from all of these.
