I’m one of those people who takes organization to the next level. You may call me uptight if you want, I’m totally okay with it. LOL! Having said that, I don’t have hours to spare to devote to this task.
Therefore, I usually look for easy and quick ways to ensure my stuff is well organized with minimal effort. So if you’re like me, I bet you’ll appreciate these cool hacks.
1. Bobby Pin Storage Hack
A cool idea to keep all those loose bobby pins in one place is to store them in an empty Tic Tac container like this.

It’s really annoying when that heavy trash bag keeps slipping out of your garbage bin. So, just secure it using binder clips. This is so helpful.
3. Drink Tab Hanger Hack
This trick is perfect for those with limited space in their closet. Instead of hanging separate hangers, just use drink tabs to stack items.

I hate when clothes fall off my hangers, but now I can just use rubber bands, pipe cleaners, or hot glue to remedy this problem.

Finding ways to store all those lids from pots and pans can be challenging. So that’s why I’m totally digging this cool storage hooks solution.

It can be hard to reach stuff if you have very deep cabinets. So instead of struggling, just use drawers like these instead.

You can easily implement this system by using shower curtain rings. I dunno why I haven’t thought of doing this yet.

13. Use Toilet Paper Roll Holders For Cable Organizing
Don’t throw away all those empty toilet paper holders, make use of them! I can’t think of a better solution.
14. Keep Your Earbuds In A Glasses Case
I had to invest in getting a special case to keep my earbuds and all the cables, but I could’ve just used this instead.
15. Add Dividers To Your Drawers
Adding dividers to all your drawers will easily help you organize stuff a lot more efficiently. Do it, it’s worth it in the end.
16. Use Glass Jars To Store Stuff
If you buy something in a jar, don’t throw it away afterwards. Reuse it to store things like spices, sugar, or pasta.

This is especially useful for your phone’s charger, so you can always know which one is yours out of everyone else’s.
