A disorganized home is a problem shared by a lot of people. Try as they might, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Sound familiar? The good news — with the right products, you can whip your house into shape in no time and for less money than you think.
Whether you need help with the living room, kitchen, bedrooms, garage, or even your outside living area, there’s a perfect solution.
Here are 75 great ways to organize your house.
1. Magnetic tray for bobby pins
Whether used at home or your hair salon, it’s easy for bobby pins to find their way into nooks and crannies. Instead of wasting time trying to find them or ruining your vacuum cleaner by accidentally sucking them up, this magnetic tray works great.
2. Mail slot
No, we’re not talking about the ones built-into doors, but a chic mail slot that’ll keep all your bills organized. And with a chalkboard, you have a quick way to write reminders. There are even handy hooks so you never misplace your keys.
3. Logbook for passwords and internet addresses
It’s important to change your passwords from time to time. But the next time you do, there’s the possibility of forgetting it by the time you need to use it. Now you can keep all your passwords and internet addresses in one place — a cool logbook.
4. Coffee table tray
Are you always misplacing the remote controls or your reading glasses? A beautiful coffee table tray is a perfect solution. You can find these in a multitude of colors and patterns to match your décor.
5. Cleaning caddy
Like most people, you have cleaning supplies above the washer and dryer, in the bathroom, and under the kitchen sink. Rather than run around from room to room to grab what you need…keep all your supplies organized with a cleaning caddy.
6. Pantry jars
Keeping items like pasta, coffee, cereal, and rice in glass jars will keep your pantry organized and make it easier to see when it’s time to make a trip to the grocery store. If you have children, go with plastic jars instead of glass.7
7. Lazy Susan
Yes, the Lazy Susan is trending again. You can use this item to organize your spices, small bathroom toiletries, and even containers of nails and screws kept in the garage.
8. Hamper compartment
Who has time to sort laundry? With a hamper compartment, you can quickly drop whites versus colors into the appropriate bin. No more bleached jeans or pink underwear.
9. Hanger stand
Whoever invented this is a genius. Rather than untangling 30 of them to get just one, simply slide the hangers down onto the stand. No more hassle.
10. Plastic containers
Available at dollar stores, fill plastic bins with whatever you want, followed by slapping on a label. Instead of rummaging through bins hoping you find what you need, you can quickly identify the right container.
11. Broom and garden tool organizer
When it comes to disorganization, the garage is usually the worst. Keep your broom, mop, rake, shovel, and other similar items neatly organized and within reach.
12. Upcycling baby jars
Getting organized doesn’t always mean buying something new. You can attach a lid from a baby food jar to the wood underneath your workstation. Then, fill them with tacks, nails, nuts, bolts, etc. Screw the jars with their contents onto the lid.
13. Dishwasher magnet
Even a simple dishwasher magnet can help organize your home. Just by flipping it around, everyone knows whether the contents are clean or dirty. This saves time and money since you won’t unknowingly rewash a load of clean dishes.
14. Diaper wipe boxes
Don’t toss out empty baby wipe containers. Instead, remove the label and use them to store hair ribbons, nail polish, makeup, and other bathroom items.
15. Ice cube tray jewelry organizer
Buy a couple of plastic ice cube trays from a dollar store. Then, use them to store your jewelry pieces. They’re especially great for earrings that you typically have just lying around.
16. Shower curtain storage
Stop putting your loofa, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, razor, and other necessities inside the tub where they usually fall. Rather, hang up a shower curtain with mesh pockets. You’ll have everything in reach and more room inside the shower stall.
17. Remote control organizer
Do you constantly hunt down multiple remote controllers? Keep them organized using a sleek organizer. You can use this as is or place it on a coffee table tray.
18. Toilet paper organizer
How many times have you heard, “Mom, there’s no toilet paper” or “Honey, I hate to bug you but…” With this organizer, you’ll never hear those words again. And, it’ll save you embarrassment the next time you have guests over and no toilet paper in the bathroom.
19. Car trunk organizer
So, your car isn’t quite your home, but it’s close. If you travel a lot, you want to have certain items on hand. With this cool product, there’s a place for all of your trunk items.
20. Entryway coat hanger
A smart-looking coat hanger for the hallway is another way to get more organized. Guests and family members have a handy place to put their coats instead of tossing them, well, just anywhere.
21. Cabinet door organizer
There never seems to be enough space in the kitchen, in particular, for things like tin foil, wax paper, and plastic baggies. Adding this inside the cabinet door, everything’s out of sight yet perfectly organized and within quick reach.
22. Food storage bins for the fridge
With a cluttered refrigerator, it’s hard to see what all you have. By the time you get to the items in the back, some have already expired. With food storage bins, you have an organized fridge and avoid wasting food.
23. Vacuum seal system
Do these systems really work? Yes. It’ll pack a large blanket down to just a few inches thick. Whether you have limited closet space or not, you’ll have it organized in no time.
24. Magnetic utensil set
Are you tired of sorting through your utensil drawer just to cook a simple meal? With a magnetic utensil set, not only are the items you use most often in one place but they also stay there, upright. What a cool concept.
25. Cable clip
With a cable clip, you don’t have to dig out the cable for your smartphone, laptop, or notebook from under the couch or beneath the cushions. You’ll always know where the end of the cable is. You can even find customized clips like this one.

33. Pet food container
