As a professional organizer who designs for real life... I tend to choose products built for functionality & longevity.

These are ten products I would recommend to the majority of my clients, especially if they were on a budget. These are a great start for those at the beginning of their organizing journey or for the seasoned organizer looking to refresh a space.



TEN OF MY MOST FLEXIBLE {& affordable}

PRODUCT RECOMMENDATIONS






Lazy Susan

An organizing star. I mostly use these in the kitchen and laundry room.



Multi-Purpose Bins

A product I hope they never discontinue. These are my go to pantry bin, kids crafts, kitchen cabinets, laundry room, garage shelving, & office shelving.



Clear Stackable Drawers

I love these. Great for bathrooms, medicine cabinets, under sinks, offices, garages, entryway cabinets, kitchens...



Kitchen Cabinet Pull Outs

For those with deep cabinets where things get lost and food goes stale... affordable and easy to install.



Over the Door Hanger

A wonderful product for creating space in small rooms and linen closets.



Clear Drawer Organizers

Your junk drawer needs these. Probably your bathroom drawers too.



Simple Drawer Dividers

If you like to file fold or need to separate categories, these are for you. Use them in bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and more!



Clear Front Zippered Storage Bins

Perfect for stacking with linens, clothes to grow into, aspirational clothing, travel items, costumes, bags/purses, seasonal items, Disney items.. the list goes on.



Expandable Adjustable Kitchen Organizer

Use this for baking sheets, pots/pans/lids, serving plates, casserole dishes.. and that's just in the kitchen.



Label Maker

Sometimes shelves or bins just need labels so people can follow the system & remember what goes where.





There you have it. Ten products that can be used in many spaces, so your money is spent wisely & you avoid the clutter trap of super specific organizers.

Of course these links may not work for everyone so I encourage you to use them as a guide and source the products similar to these that fit your exact needs and measurements. Aesthetics is also a factor but you can apply the concept of the items above to the design that suits your style.
