Tension Rods You can use these under the sink to hold your spray bottles up and out of the way, or you can use them in your pantry to help keep your trays, lids, and cutting boards upright and organized. Magnetic Spice Wall When counter space is at a premium and cupboards are already overflowing, why not utilize your wall space? Just put up a metal sheet, and mount your spices up with magnets! You can mount this either on your wall or on the inside of your cabinet doors. Magnetic Strip Use a magnetic strip on the inside of your medicine cabinet door, drawer, or on the wall to keep your bobby pins, tweezers, and nail clippers in one little area. Shoe Organizer If you have an old over-the-door shoe organizer, you can store your pantry food, canned goods, or cleaning materials here. Soda Can Tab Hangers A great way to reuse those soda can tabs AND to increase space in your closet is by using the tabs to double up hangers! Also, if you wanted to prep an outfit for the next morning, you can combine them together and hang it up. Shower Ring Organizer Organize your collection of hats, scarves, or ties with simple shower curtain rings on a hanger. S Hooks Finally, a way to have your towels at arms-length so you dont have to step out of the shower dripping wet.
