I would love to have the perfect solution for you but unfortunately my collection of headbands totals three (and they don’t need to be accessible) which means they live in a drawer in the linen closet—not such a great solution for storing an entire collection of headbands! So I put my thinking cap on while [...]

Organizing Baking Supplies and Snacks
This post was written by Rubbermaid employee Katie Abbott. It was time to switch it up – as in, a cabinet switch.

How to Organize Bags in your Closet So They are Easy to Find

How Do I Organize My 2 Car Garage?
Oh man how I love organizing a garage. It’s usually bulky stuff which makes the job go fast.

How to organize and display a jewelry collection (and make it look pretty!)
This post is written by Rubbermaid employee Gretchen Walsh I belong to the “out of sight, out of mind” club – I love my space to look de-cluttered (who doesn’t?)…but if something’s hidden away, it may as well not even exist. This is a problem for someone who’s also an active member of the “I [...]
Donating specialty items
I always encourage people not to get to wrapped up in finding the perfect place to donate their items. I see that kind of perfectionism standing in the way of people getting unwanted items out of their home. That said, I know it’s really a great feeling when you find the just right place to [...]
