I learnt how to organize and store items properly when I stayed with my Aunt few years before I got married. My Aunt was so good with decorations and putting things in order that in a just few minutes a very disorganized space would become clean and welcoming.
I think I left with some of her beautiful storage hack and ideas. I also love putting my things in a way that helps me easily find them whenever the need arises. My kitchen drawer is one place I always take time to arrange properly. My flat plates, wine glasses, tea cups and other important little items are kept there.
I also converted a chocolate heart shaped bowl to a good storage for my spare keys, nails and bolts. This makes it so easy to access the items when I need it and it keeps family members safe too because those are sharp objects that can cause minor or even major incidents.
In this way, I have made good use of the chocolate bowl as a storage for keys and other sharp objects, thereby saving me money that would have been used to buy a storage box for the items.
I also love my toiletries storage section. Before now, my toiletries didn't have a home of it's own so to say, it was found in different corners of my room, sometimes even in the bathroom.
This storage section contains my toiletries such as my cream, soap, hair treatments, accessories, body spray, perfumes, toothpaste and jewelries. Since I got this storage, all my toiletries and jewelries have been arranged properly in their sections.
This storage idea made my room look so good and beautiful and to think I didn't have to spend so much to construct it.
There's a purse in the storage where I keep more delicate stuff like my makeup tools, some jewelleries for occasional wear are also kept there, making it quicker to get dressed up for an outing because I can easily find what I need in seconds.
I also make sure items are returned back to their respective positions when I used them or when someone else used them. That way you won't have to look for them much later when you need to hurry.
I love the aspect of not being able to guess what is inside the storage until I open it. It also gives me some measure of privacy with the coverage and most importantly, helps me stay organized, keeps the whole place clean, less cluttered and beautiful.
