Ready to organize EVERY single aspect of your kitchen and pantry? You’re going to love all of the inexpensive and CLEVER ideas these creative – organizing minds have come up with! Let’s do this:
Add more storage and easy access to small items like your pot scrubbers and brushes underneath your kitchen and bathroom sinks! Pick up some inexpensive wire storage baskets like THESE (they are available in a variety of sizes to fit your space!) and some cheap tension rods (measure your space to make sure you get some that are long enough!) THESE tension rods come in two adjustable lengths. If you have some slim cupboards (under 17″) then THESE cupboard bars are just the ticket! Notice how the BACK tension rod is positioned so that it’s in the CENTER of the BOTTOM of the basket, not the back lip of it. If you really do want to use the back lip instead of centering it, you might want to tie your basket to the rod with some twist ties or these velcro wrap type fasteners. It’s much more sturdy that way. If the insides of your cabinets are really slick, you might want to also grab some of THESE super CHEAP pole stoppers/sockets. So that you don’t have to use tools or drill any holes, affix them with some of THESE handy command strips for an easy, quick, damage free option!
What a brilliant budget friendly space saver! Use THESE damage free clear command caddies to utilize all that wasted space inside the pantry door or on blank wall space to organize your spices and small items!

I love that I can see through them to my labels so I know exactly what’s there.
