Keep Gift Bags Orderly
Aunt Peaches
The key to repurposing these bags is keeping them wrinkle-free — and when they're thrown into a pile in the back of your closet, that's not very likely. Use a file organizer to keep them upright instead.
Even though muffin tins and cookie sheets result in sweet, sweet treats, let's be honest: These bulky items are some of the most annoying tools to organize. But when you give each item a dedicated slot in your organizer, they're way more bearable (trust us).
Who wants to use someone else's dirty cloth? (Yuck.) This clever mom identified different compartments in a file holder for each family member to use post-scrub down.
Trays, pot lids, baking pans, the works. Anything that you hate to stack (because that just sets you up for a tumble-to-the-floor disaster) should go in this office organizer.
It's hard to use all of your different colors when you completely forget some even exist. Display all of palettes on your vanity using a file sorter so each one stays front-and-center (and memorable!).
Nothing is worse than putting your food in a storage container, then going to find the lid and having it be nowhere in sight. But if you store all these plastic discs in a file organizer, you're way less likely to displace them.
Just because your pink clutch is out of season doesn't mean it should be banished to the bin under your bed. Keep them in your closet (in case you want to break some fashion rules) so you can look at them even when you're not using 'em.
If you've restricted the number of boards you allow yourself to have in your kitchen just because they're too gosh darn burdensome, don't. File organizers were basically made to store cutting boards upright and orderly.
