🎓 Reddit experts on clothing & closet storage products
The comments and opinions expressed on this page are written exclusively by redditors. To provide you with the most relevant data, we sourced opinions from the most knowledgeable Reddit users based the total number of upvotes and downvotes received across comments on subreddits where clothing & closet storage products are discussed. For your reference and for the sake of transparency, here are the specialists whose opinions mattered the most in our ranking.
For reference, discarding took about 4.5 months in my 1400 sq foot home and two storage sheds. I have started working on deep cleaning, upgrading necessary yet ugly items, and storage/organizing. I expect this to take another two months. I am watching "Clean My Space" and "Home Organizing by Alejandra.tv" channels on YouTube now to help with the process.
I am trying to keep in mind getting products out of original packaging, if possible, to limit exposure to constant advertising in my home. I am choosing to spend quite a bit on higher quality products that I love and expect to last many years. Fortunately, I have a budget that allows for some luxuries.
Bedroom
I started with my closet and these great baskets from the container store http://www.containerstore.com/s/whitewash-rattan-bins/d?productId=10037633&q=Large%20Rattan%20Bin%20Whitewash. The closet has a built in shoe organizer and I used my label maker to indicate what style shoes go on which shelf – heels, sandals, sneakers, flats and boots. I also labeled the shelf for each basket. Clothes hangers are all white. They used to be all kinds of colors, and I realized that white is more calming. I am now using these for my socks and undies since konmari folding did not quite work for me on those items http://www.amazon.com/MIU-COLOR-Collapsible-Underwear-Organizer/dp/B009A3HTXY. The folding works great for most of my other clothes. I am still pondering how to organize the nightstand drawers.
Kitchen
I bought a couple of 10" bamboo lazy susans for keeping my oils and vinegars organized in my cabinets. I bought some refrigerator organization units from InterDesign and the Rubbermaid FreshWorks Produce savers. I intend to get Oxo food storage containers for dry goods.
I upgraded to these measuring spoons http://www.amazon.com/Cuisipro-Stainless-Steel-Measuring-Spoon/dp/B00004SU1I and these measuring cups http://www.amazon.com/Sagler-Measuring-Piece-Heavy-duty-Stainless/dp/B00V5EFWTO.
When I was discarding in my kitchen I found I did not really love my dinnerware so I got this set http://www.amazon.com/Corelle-Coordinates-18-Piece-Dinnerware-Service/dp/B00R790CLY plus matching lunch sized plates. I love the simple clean lines and the durability of the product. I downsized from a 12 person setting to 6 and it is great.
Bath
Have not done much here yet. I don’t have much need for storage organization in the cabinets. Still considering what I want to do with the drawers. Right now the drawers are still organized with small cardboard boxes from Glossybox, a cut down cereal box, and an empty jigsaw puzzle box. I upgraded my plunger and brush to nice stainless steel containers, and got a toilet paper holder that matches them http://www.amazon.com/Home-Basics-Vented-Stainless-Toilet/dp/B00JB20IDW.
Laundry
I replaced my bulky plastic basket with this http://www.amazon.com/Bajer-Design-Marketing-5234-Basket/dp/B0010KZCFC. It now hangs on a Command Hook next to the washer.
Car
I have repacked the car kit and 72 hour emergency kits in these for my car and my son's car. ttp://www.amazon.com/TrunkCratePro-Best-Premium-Trunk-Organizer/dp/B01AHK0J9Y. We live in an area prone to natural disasters so I like to be prepared wherever we are. I bought a car trash container (http://www.amazon.com/Highland-1932600-Car-Trash-Keeper/dp/B0027QWNGO) and created a little kit in a ziplock bag in the glovebox with essentials. Also, found tissues in a round container that fits perfectly in the door cup holder. I also bought a set of matching reusable grocery bags (http://www.amazon.com/ReBagMe-Reusable-Grocery-Reinforced-Handles/dp/B00Y17OIR4) so I don’t have the mismatched set. Finally, I have these on order (http://www.amazon.com/Car-Hammer-Seatbelt-Emergency-Must-Have/dp/B00CB8WM2S). Not organization related, just something I have been thinking that I needed for safety.
Purse
I reassessed what is in my purse. I used a couple small cosmetics bags that I had on hand and now have many things I wished I had at various times. Everything is neatly organized and I know exactly what is in there and why I have it. Everything from safety pins, to pen and notebook (http://www.amazon.com/Marble-Composition-Books-Notebooks-Green/dp/B00WRDIS9I), to a tiny flashlight, a granola bar in case I am out and hungry, a tide stain remover pen, a tiny Band-Aid package, tiny measuring tape (http://www.amazon.com/Stanley-33-115-10-Foot-4-Inch-PowerLock/dp/B00009OYGH), my phone, my wallet, and my keys are always on the little hook. Not exactly Konmari minimalism, but those are all things that I wished I had at various times and I am happy that I will not be caught without again. It is a medium size purse, packed just right, with stuff easily accessible.
Home office
I have not done much there yet, but this drawer organizer is working pretty well http://www.amazon.com/Rolodex-Regeneration-Deep-Drawer-Organizer-21864/dp/B002JG48R4.
Command center
I am currently working on a “Command Center” to keep clutter off the kitchen counter. I have not purchased anything for that yet. I am writing down ideas, measuring, and considering products. http://thehappyhousie.porch.com/20-fabulous-command-centers-to-get-your-life-completely-organized/
Other random stuff:
I moved my CDs into a holder http://www.amazon.com/Case-Logic-DVDW-92-Capacity-Classic/dp/B00005ATMD and they now live on a Command Hook in my car. For movies I transferred them to these Sleeves http://www.amazon.com/Atlantic-74604729-Movie-Sleeves/dp/B002JR2V7C and they now live in a small drawer in my living room. I tossed the packaging because it was bulky and does not give me joy.
I am using these in my linen closet http://www.amazon.com/Honey-Can-Do-STO-02986-Nested-Woven-Esspresso. This box for my jewelry http://www.amazon.com/Black-Leather-Jewelry-Travel-Case/dp/B0006JCGUM.
Not related to organizing, but I am loving these brushes for getting tiny spaces clean. So much better than an old toothbrush. http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Good-Grips-Clean-Brush/dp/B003M8GMS6
If you made it this far, congrats. Something that I have noticed is that I can now shop with confidence, I can easily toss or donate the old unloved items, and I am organized enough to return those few items that don’t work as well as I hoped. My home feels much more open and inviting. I know where everything is and my clear vision is starting to come to fruition.
Another male? Aspen is ok though carefresh or better yet (and certainly cheaper in the long run) fleece. You can just go to a Joann's or walmart or any hobby/sewing store and buy some fleece. Toss it in the wash as needed with an extra set in reserve. Cat food is what you should transition him to, high quality. I do blue buffalo cat food personally. It will last you a VERY long time. Hedgehog food is never as good for them as it should be. I will provide some amazon links for things you should probably get, the main one that you should but not quite have to if you have a room in the proper temp range is 72-80 degrees. Please come over to Hedgehogs Anonymous on Facebook request to join, then once you are in simply go to the files and take a look at them. I am a college student myself so I do my best to keep costs low though obviously start up costs will be high but after that its really quite cheap mostly (aside from possible vet visits).
Modular shelving can be the cage and gives him plenty of open room to roam and play around. This is the shelving I personally use and can vouch for. I have a 3x3 grid so 9 sq ft. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LGZOR6A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Here is the food I get for my Sophie. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KU55KD2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Heating set up, again this is only if you need it and can keep the temp in the right range naturally. I dont know where you live so I do not know what your winters are like but if you get temps in the 50s or lower I do recommend it. Another preventative measure is to put the cage a foot or so off the ground, will actually keep your temps a few degrees higher than on the ground.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002DHO6S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Ceramic Heat Emitter - Use this and NOT a heat light or something for reptiles, they need to have a period of darkness to be naturally awake 12/12 light on/off schedule All that the CHE does is emit heat, no light.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002CZ0J3E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Thermostat with a temp probe. Plug the CHE lamp into this and it automatically turns the CHE on and off to keep the temp in the right range.

These are all the bare essentials aside from a wheel. I and most other people will recommend the Volcano View Hedgehogs bucket wheel or Carolina Storm bucket wheel.
I was just trying to be a thorough as possible without really leaving out anything. Again please join us over at Hedgehogs Anonymous on facebook. Everyone in the group absolutely loves helping everyone with a hedge. Any question that you may have can and will be answered fairly quickly. Most if not all members would recommend getting from a USDA certified breeder just so you know the full medical history of your baby and his parents. Its also generally cheaper as the cost from a breeder is generally around $200 though that depends on the coloring. I am by no means saying do not get him from your pet store you played with him at. I dont like pet stores having hedgehogs just because they are a more sensitive exotic animal that doesnt do well in a retail setting when you have to take care of hundreds of animals at once with high overhead. But if he is behaves well with you now then absolutely get him from there. He looks on the smaller side so hes pretty young.
Again please join us over at Hedgehogs Anonymous. Cant wait to see you and your baby on there. You could potentially take him home today with a cheap bin, simple fleece bolts and food and water dishs from what you have in your house and thatll last until the rest of your supplies are acquired.

The playpen (1.)
I use Songmics storage organizers (see https://www.amazon.ca/SONGMICS-Storage-Organizer-Bookcase-ULPC06H/dp/B01LGZOR6A for an example). I create "walls” of 3 panels by 3 panels and connect them using tie-wraps. 2 panels of height used to work but someone learned to push a box to the edge of the playpen, jump or climb on the box then jump over the “wall”.
Two of the “walls” are connected using locks instead of tie-wraps so I can open the playpen once the cage door is closed.
Cardboard boxes laid flat and taped together can be a cheaper, if temporary, alternative. If you can get free boxes from somewhere (like your job, if they order a lot of things in boxes) you can just replace the walls when they get dirty.
The toys (2.)
Toys depend of course on your rats’ tastes. My boys love to unmake the toys I make them with wooden dowels and beads, then they chew them (I make sure the wood is untreated or identified as safe for pets).
The accessories (3.)
While they like their baskets, lava ledges, felt tunnel and so on, my boys LOVE their sputnik (some people call it a space pod). I am actually considering getting a second one.
Tips (4.)
Well... that is a bit of a vague question. This subreddit is great for tips if you use the search feature or ask a specific question.
ShadowTheRat and Emiology on YouTube are pretty good for tips if you prefer videos.
Home is where the heart is
So since you already live in a house/duplex, these might be really self-explanatory for you, but they definitely weren't for me, so I'll throw them out there.
I made this. The dimensions aren’t perfect but might help see a different way. https://imgur.com/a/XHTquaV so just some thoughts. Move things up walls for space. The glass enclosed dresser doesn’t look easily used. Move the desk over into the corner and move the tall dresser were the glass front one is. The chest and case on it are rough and not very functional. I’d get them out at least while figuring everything out. If you can add shelves or cubes above your side table that would add space. They would need to be screwed in. If you can’t then skip that. Hanging laundry baskets or use a shelf with a couple storage bins to toss laundry in. Depending on measurements possibly something like this on the glass front furniture. C&AHOME Cube Storage Organizer, 8- Cube DIY Plastic Closet Cabinet, Modular Book Shelf Organizer Units, Storage Shelving Ideal for Bedroom Living Room Office with Doors, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XFHW6LK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_fX7RDbR8FS51M shelves with storage cubes, containers or such is another option. Add shelves above the desk. Again bins, tubs, cubes even paper organizers can be used. Dollar stores can give extra options. Don’t consider things exclusive. I needed a closed container to hold chopsticks. I bought a pasta container. Think about how to move things up. Think about how you like things for ease. I like doors but for example some cubes come with or without drawers. Under the bed- I’d consider it storage. It doesn’t look convenient day to day. Under there you want to put this.

Basically storage needs to go up. Bed drawers don’t work in large rooms so use for storage. Put damp rid out. Make sure no leaks. For me the idea is enclosed. Choose what works for you. Don’t forget if the idea of doors on storage cubes don’t work for you that you can use a curtain to cover it if you don’t want others to see. The idea is finding what works for you. If you move things and have a wall space open buy taller items. I’ve been redoing a smaller space so feel free to ask if you need some other suggestions.
Edit another idea is move that wood dresser to the window like in diagram, glass one next to it and cubes where the wood one is now.
You should get:
1.Black Flats -> You can match them up with literally EVERYTHING, and you'll wear them more than once.
2.Necklace -> These are SUPER matchable (if that's even a word.) They can make any plain old shirt pop and give it an extra fashionable kick. I'd go with orange and/or White
3.Scarf -->Fall is coming and then Winter, this is SUCH a good acessory to make you warmer and look better, you can wear it around your neck or as a headband It's a cream color so It's super easy to wear with anything; you could even wear your flats ;)
4.Food Chopper -->Think of how easy it would be to make some salsa or guacamole with this! (Now my mouth's watering)
5.Tie Hanger--> You can so use it to hang headbands and belts and scarfs, not just ties! Mess be gone!
6.Shot Glasses--> These ensure a fun night, and who doesn't need shot glasses? There's never enough!
7.Too Faced Matte Collection--> I know for myself I always think, oh I don't want to pay that much for makeup but you know what? It's worth it. Too Faced is such a good brand and the combinations are endless, they're very well pigmented and work so good.
Total: $99.44
I have an extra tip for you! Don't buy elf products from here, they're 50% more expensive and if you buy them on their webpage and spend 25 or more, you get free shipping and they ALWAYS have special offers.
Go Ben!
Lots of good tips here already! My personal ones are;
Other than that, keep an eye on the clothes you have and what you wear. Even if at first assessment you think you need to keep things, if you never wear them you can put them in storage to see if they're missed before donating. Also vacuum bags are great for storing off-season clothes. I just packed the last of my bulky winter wear up last weekend.
It sounds like your kids are craving more attention/interaction, which they probably get when they terrorize or destroy the house. I work with special needs kids that have some pretty extreme problem behaviors--tantrums, aggression to other kids and adults, destructive behavior, etc. I had a kid who would make herself throw up if she didn't get her way. This is how you get it to stop:
Example: Kids want something, get mad and tantrum when mom removes it from reach or says no.
What to do: No eye contact. It's okay to tell the kids, "You can't have [whatever it is] right now. When you have a quiet voice and nice hands we can play with (something they like and can safely play with)." Then let them cry or tantrum. Crying never killed anyone. This is hard because the first several times you use this method on the kids they will be pissed. Acting a fool has been working for them their whole lives, so they'll probably tantrum themselves to sleep/exhaustion several times trying to get what they want. Let them. If you can't confine them to a baby proofed area or your house is set up in a way that they can climb or hurt themselves, you will need to be on your shit until you gain a little instructional control over the kids. (There really isn't a way to baby gate one room and take out the stuff you don't want them to touch?) This means that if they're doing something physically dangerous, like climbing, you block this behavior every time they try without giving them any attention for it--no eye contact, no talking to them, just pick them up from whatever they're attempting to do and move them away from it. They will run back to it and try again. Repeat, repeat, repeat. They'll get tired and give up eventually. If you let them get away with it, or give in after initially blocking the behavior, it will keep happening. And it will be harder to get them to stop in the long run. If your kids are just having a run of the mill tantrum, let them lay there and tantrum. It's not hurting or inconveniencing anyone but them.
I know this sounds like a lot. And it will feel like it isn't working for a while, because their behavior will get worse before it gets better (Google "extinction burst" to see what I mean). But you're a good dad for recognizing what's going on and wanting to improve it instead of just trying to avoid letting the behaviors happen.
BIG NOTE If your child is 2 and not talking, have you looked into referrals for an assessment of any speech or developmental delays? In most states children with a delay of any kind are entitled to a certain amount of free therapy services. Giving your child a way to communicate, whether it's speech or signing if he's not at the speech level just yet, will reduce so much frustration. Ask your pediatrician, it can't hurt! If you do qualify for therapy services that would also give your wife a break from constant childcare--ABA services are often available in-home, and while your wife would need to be home, the therapist would be working with your son so your wife would get a break (at least as much of a break as you can get with just one kid instead of 2). PLEASE look into this--if you qualify for any kind of services it will make all of your lives so much easier, and it shouldn't cost too much if they find that there's a developmental delay of some kind.
Good luck, man! Parenting is HARD!
Okay, I know this might sound weird, but hide-away shoe organizers could be helpful for this dilemma. If you got one or two of these ones, you could hang it on the back of your bedroom door or the outside of your closet door and organize the lipsticks in the pockets in rows, with all similar colors in each four-pocket row. And if you got this 4-pack right here, you could organize all of your lipsticks, shadows, etc. into pockets by color and hide it all away under your bed/dresser/wherever it will fit, and just pull it out when you need it! I know these two ideas aren't adorable or decorative, but I thought they might tidy things up a bit.
For things other than lipstick, you might also benefit from making one of these boards :) I've always wanted to make one, they look so cute.
b-a-n-a-n-a-s! Thanks for hosting :)
Not sure what your budget is or what type of cage you have but I used these type of wire cubes to built a bigger home for my bun. For ideas on how to make a door/entrance take a look at this thread from a few weeks ago.
You can also try to put mats against the wires so he doesn't chew the wires and gets a snack instead. If he doesn't pay much attention to the mats you can try what I do at times, I get the treats (see link below) and rub it against the mats so it's more a more appetizing snack.
A few other suggestions when you move and have bigger space:
Treats (recommended by her vet)
I also agree with a lot of the suggestions here, I have the Living World Teach treat toy and my bun just loves it, though doesn't care for other toys but lives for cardboard boxes. Hope this helps!
If you have a small closet, these hangers save a lot of space. The velvet on them keeps clothes from slipping, but they are super thin compared to regular plastic hangers and save space. There are also hangers where you can hang like 5 pair of pants on 1 hanger which is a great space saver.
I WANNA GO TO BURNING MAN SOO BADDDDDD.
They're 3' by 3' and I just think they're awesome for organization.
For Burning Man:
Facemasks are always good and get a bunch of these to give to people. Great to not be dehydrated in the desert. And tasty to boot!
BONUS: Have a fantastic time, take pictures, and remember to share everything that happens.
Ok I see. Yes, I would definitely hang them up. A pegboard would work fine but it's also a huge pain to hang an entire pegboard. If you are allowed, I have two ideas for you. My favorite is this over the door shoe holder. We keep a lot of our cords and electronics like video game controllers in one of these. It works wonderfully. I would label each one with labels alphabetically by manufacturer.
https://smile.amazon.com/Simple-Houseware-Pockets-Hanging-Organizer/dp/B07CG2R9ST/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?crid=3S8HMCIWSC1SR&keywords=over+the+door+shoe+organizer&qid=1550929509&s=gateway&sprefix=over%2Caps%2C177&sr=8-2-spons&psc=1
If you don't have a door you can hang it over, I believe you can buy this same type of thing and hang it on a wall.
The second idea I have is to just buy a box of hooks with screws on the one end and put lots of hooks up. It would leave little holes in your wall but so would putting up a pegboard, and it would be easier and cheaper. Labels should again be added above each hook alphabetically by manufacturer.
The last resort would be buying a large container with cubby holes and labeling each one, but the container would likely be large, clunky and take up more room than wall hooks.
If this is a business you own, having it look nice might also be a factor if it's view of the public.
​
First off, you need a battlestation. A nice desk set up with your computer for gaming or Redditing.
A flat screen on the wall.
A shelf organizer to put your books, games, video game consoles and have them organized. Maybe even one of these cool wall storage things.
Possible causes:
I once was at my wits end and made a scratching post by stapling a material my cat liked to the sides and back of a wood shoe stand, like this one but half the size: https://www.amazon.com/ClosetMaid-8983-Stackable-15-Unit-Organizer/dp/B002IT6E6A/ Worked great, saved our carpet.
Last but not least, Prozac is available for cats. Also calming pheremones like Feliway and other over the counter things you can try without going to the vet. Mental health issues aren't confined to just humans.
I got one of those hanging storage things for my dorm and it worked like a charm! Since we had zero space this was the perfect solution- my roommate loved it so much she ended up getting one too! haha
http://www.amazon.com/Household-Essentials-80-Pocket-Accessories-Organizer/dp/B0010XX7ZQ/ref=zg_bs_3744511_1
I definitely second getting rid of unused stuff. I try to do that every 6 months or so.
Maybe form a compromise with your boyfriend and turn the office into an office/dressing room. It would benefit him as well by helping keep your room cleaner. You can have a wardrobe in there or build a cubby type thing in there. Or go to ikea and pick up one of these:
http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10196431/#/20255590
It's affordable and really useful for organizing. You can get bins that fit in each cubby. That way you can have a bin for each accessory. a few for bags, one for scarves, etc. You can organize each purse bin by color or by the type of bag. That way you will know where to look for something specific.
http://www.amazon.com/ClosetMaid-15-Cubby-Shoe-Organizer-White/dp/B002IT6E6A
You can pick up something like that for your shoes and stash it in a closet or in the dressing room. It organizes and you can still stack things on it or hang things over it.
My closet looks something like [this] (http://www.vissbiz.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Amazing-Elfa-Closet-System.jpg). Clearly this one is significantly better organized than mine (and also larger) but I've found the elfa system to be quite good at the price point. I put mine together for ~$900 with the nice wood veneered shelves, as opposed to wire ones.
I decided against going for the significantly cheaper Rubbermaid version which appeared to be a good, less expensive alternative.
I'm actually considering buying someplace to put my headphones [when I eventually get the money for a good pair].
So far I am considering these:

YAY! :D let me think.... I'll add things to this post as I think of them.
Bed Caddy

Storage
Dry Erase Calendar
Small Room Safe
Dorm Security
Command Strips
This amazing food/beverage station
A freaking PURPLE fridge

Make pooping in a shared bathroom less embarrassing
This photo display
An electric kettle
Also a planner! I like to make my own and use different colored pens to differentiate between my classes! If you want the template I use for my planner, I can send you a link to it! :D
Get a cheap hanging shoe organizer and hang it from your easy up, you can store your snacks and stuff in it!
If you have the funds get a utility battery that can jump a car, I use one to keep 10+ phones topped up for the majority of the weekend. This is a newer model of the one I have.
Firefly lights a great way to illuminate the camp at night and one use of the batteries should last all weekend as long as you turn them off during the day.
Easy ups are usually 40-50 bucks at Dick’s sporting goods. Although my one regret is getting one with a larger footprint than the covered area (legs are angled outward). The ones that have the same covered area as the foot print (legs go straight up and down) are much better, especially when combining a few easy ups together!
All I got for now
This is awesome for storage under beds and other raised furniture.
My mother swears by these. They are also good for under-bed storage as well as for use in closets.
Pair this and this with this to save closet space.
This doesn't just have to be used in a closet! It can be hung as a display unit in a dining or living room!
Sure thing!

I highly recommend purchasing zip ties to help strengthen the intersections between each side. An amazon reviewer suggested it in their product video and it seemed to help a lot!
Consider hiring a bi-weekly or monthly maid. I did and it is helpful, as my husband and I disagree on cleaning and this keeps the peace. I hate spending money on things that I can just do myself, but, again, the peace is really worth it.
What I do for my son is that he takes off everything at the main-level coat closet. I have a shoe stand in there for everyone's daily shoes (special occasion shoes go in the individual's bedroom closet), and backpacks go here too (though my son is only in preschool so doesn't have homework.) There's a table right next to the closet for lunch bags. I also utilize this closet organizer which has been fantastic! You can easily put lunch bags here as well if you don't have room for a table. I designate one 'box' for each person in our family, for gloves, hats, etc.
Regarding the seat belt, you need to observe him to find out exactly what is taking him forever to put it on. I don't understand what the sneaking game is, but if its just something merely annoying, then just ignore it and he'll eventually tire of it and move on.
Details and links:
Just sent a box of 100 wire hangers to OH Gov Mike DeWine. This was a campaign that comes from back when Kasich was in office, and the bill was on his desk. He vetoed it. Unfortunately this time the bill is already signed, but DeWine still needs a dose of reality.
The hangers were $21.95 on Amazon.
I wiped out his address so I don’t get banned for doxxing, even though it’s publicly available. 🤷🏼♀️ Just search “Governor Mike DeWine office address” - it’s on the contact page at the bottom. Be sure to mark it as a gift so you can tell him how you feel! Sadly there’s a character limit - damn you, Amazon!
My gift message:
> Governor, I can’t safely carry to term due to a mental condition. Thanks for signing my death warrant, along with the rest of your vulnerable female constituents. Here’s a gift of our only remaining option. With love, (name and zip)
Have at it, folks! Especially you, Ohio constituents. Make your voice heard!
Koss ProDJ100s. I really like them so far. Comfortable and they sound great.
If anyone is interested, the stand is actually a Kamenstein Banana Hanger where I heat-shrinked the exposed metal hangers for better grip and less chance of ruining the headphones.
Thanks! I will look into the hangers and links but had some quick questions...
http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Velvet-Suit-Hangers-Pack/dp/B00FXNAAW2
Would those types of just velvet hangers help any?
And yeah I figured the slimming could be done easy but I cant seem to find any info or how-to videos all I find is full tailoring of button ups with cutting involved. Is there a name for this type of alteration? I plan to go to a local seamstress and see what they say but thought I would try to research first...

rack is super modular and customizable and light, super would recommend for space and budget peeps who spent all their money on shoes instead
i like to store my letters in a plastic shoe/spice holder that hangs on the wall. something like this!
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CG2R9ST
its good because i have multiple penpals and it saves space :)
:(
I had an awesome one back in the day that dropped into the spare tire well. It had a couple of compartments that had plastic lids to organize things. With the CV being phased out everywhere, they're available at state surplus sites for pennies on the dollar.
OK, so since that's not an option, here's what I'd suggest.
First, get yourself a couple of tackle boxes. One for your basic crime scene stuff (powders, tape, brushes, etc), one for your first aid stuff, one for odds and ends.
Next, invest in an under-bed storage tote. The long one. Measure your trunk first, then find one that's the right length. That will hold your bulkier stuff. Make sure to get one that hinges in the middle.
Then, it's all about the bags. Active shooter bag, bag for stuff you need but don't keep in the cabin, etc. If you're as paper dependent as we were back in the day, consider one of those hard-sided hanging file holders.
Take homes for the win!
A good cup of tea!, a tie/belt organizer, and an L-shaped desk! (I love my L-shaped desk and I could never do without one!)
found it amazon plenty sturdy but I dojnt trust the shlves to put any heavy figures like tracer as it uses thick stretched vinyl

This is what I bought: https://smile.amazon.com/Rubbermaid-Configurations-8-Foot-Organizer-Titanium/dp/B0009WG328/ref=pd_bxgy_201_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0009WG328&pd_rd_r=D9XRQZHZ4YH585K49YXD&pd_rd_w=j5pLN&pd_rd_wg=eDuvr&refRID=D9XRQZHZ4YH585K49YXD&th=1
It's attached to the wall though, not freestanding. You should be able to find free standing systems as well.
Cube organizers/shelves can be nice ways to add storage as well: https://smile.amazon.com/ClosetMaid-Cubeicals-Organizer-6-Cube-White/dp/B002IT6E9C/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1500490832&sr=8-2&keywords=storage+cube+organizer
I’ve only seen it for plants too and I can never find it on Amazon. 😭
Edit: I just searched with VERY SPECIFIC descriptions and found it!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Edit 2: Your wish is my command
Probably not what you're looking for but I figure the more contributions the better.
You can put your more valuable shoes on the top shelves to avoid the pup going to town on them.

Congrats on the new flat, even if it is tiny. :)
One of these can double as small item storage as well as a window covering.
You can also use one of these to store more than just shoes!
I keep this white mini bowl from Target in our bedroom (it's hard to see but it has a pretty lace pattern), and an elephant ring holder in the bathroom. I just need to find a cute one for the kitchen now.
Not sure if you're looking for something like these but I really love them:

Ya g930s. I'm using this banana holder http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00310KPRY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00
The part in the back is a banana slicer but I think it looks more interesting with that on the back so I just left it there lol.
My current solution is working perfectly. I bought a lockable box and asked my sister to put all bingeable foods inside. Only she can open it and only she can take foods out. So instead of binging on a 5 lb bag of pecans, I ask my sister to weigh out an ounce. I'm kind of like a pet now but who cares. Try it!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00002N9F9/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
This is what I do too. I have this cute little ring holder that works great!
I use shoe racks like this to store my long boxes. Works out pretty well, each "nook" can hold two 660 count boxes.
What can't you get her that's under $50?!
Hope those ideas help!
Yes except walls on the sides too (except for an opening/gate to enter) to prevent the blanket from falling off. And since my TV is right in front of the bed, I wouldn't want the wall where the feet are (blocks lower part of TV). I think my best bet may be to put cheap pieces of furniture on the sides that are just above the bed's height like maybe this https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Houseware-Shelves-Hanging-Organizer/dp/B01DJJ8HGM/ref=sr_1_27?keywords=drawer&qid=1555232547&s=home-garden&sr=1-27 but I'm trying to find an even cheaper option. I'm currently considering some really janky options like how to get a piece of posterboard to stand upright
I got something like this from ikea. It's a hanging shoe rack. It may not work for you if you have a small closet. But I love it.
Whitmor Hanging Shoe Shelves-Grey, 8 Open Shelves https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K5NBQGO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_I-VMzb1TEN04C
I don't use one myself (yet) but a hanging jewelry organizer would be great for this, particularly if you're mostly dealing with small sized products.
Here's an example of what I mean.
Depends on where you live and your income. If you're low income and in NYS you can get an abortion for free. I haven't done the legwork, but I feel it's safe to assume they don't run that deal in Texas.
Or you can get 100 abortions on Amazon for $21.94.
On the shelf above the clothes on the right?
Are all your clothes floor-length! Mine aren’t. If you have tops or folded-over slacks, put them all together and put a shoe rack underneath them.
There are shoe pockets that hang from a clothes rod that will work with a closet system like this.
JUST found this same pic and was about to post it. haha
To any interested I found them on Amazon: (not an AF link)
https://www.amazon.com/Rubbermaid-ActionPacker-Lockable-Storage-1949040/dp/B00002N9F9
Those that are actively being used for D&D, Frostgrave, Gloomhaven, or whatever current game we're playing I keep them in Letter Trays except the taller ones go on Spice Racks on a shelf all near the gaming table for easy access. The rest go on this Shoe Rack in a seperate room until they are needed.
More great clothes rails if anyone else is looking:

This would be cool
You could store them length wise and get quite a good amount in there, and it should be big enough to store controllers, cables, the system if need be, etc.
I have a hanging drawer thing like https://www.amazon.com/SimpleHouseware-Shelves-Hanging-Closet-Organizer/dp/B01DJJ8HGM/ref=sr_1_31?s=storageorganization&ie=UTF8&qid=1520542821&sr=1-31&keywords=hanging+drawer
Each shelf carries scarves from the same color family. It lives in my kids bedroom ;)
I wear abaya and shela in my daily life so I usually hang the ironed matching (polyester) shela on the same hanger as the abaya. However, I do get tempted to investigate wearing scarves instead of shelas as I have very fine hair and the polyester shelas do a lot of slipping and sliding and I use an unfashionable number of (visible) pins to keep it in place!
Personally I think if you want more storage space and want to use under your bed you are far better off with something like this
A bit more on the expensive side, but I just installed this Rubbermaid adjustable unit in my girlfriend's condo and its working fantastic so far: http://www.amazon.com/Rubbermaid-Configurations-Organizer-Titanium-FG3H89DWTITNM/dp/B0009WG328/ref=sr_1_1?s=storageorganization&ie=UTF8&qid=1426173384&sr=1-1

Pretty sure it still works post-natal
You can use an over the door organizer for easy access to medicines. like this one

I love it.

There are a lot of things like that, and they vary a lot in terms of price and visual style: closet organizer, closet shelving system, closet kit, shelf cube storage... Hopefully one of those is along the lines of what you were looking for.
man i have a s-load of clothes compared to most of you it seems. my wife would love if i got rid of a lot of it. i just bought this rubbermaid closet for $89 last week and will be installing it this weekend. can't believe how fast the price went up.
I've done this as well. I would actually reccomend getting a long, underbed storage bin like this. It fits perfectly on the back seat so the bunnies can move around, but since it's plastic you can avoid getting pee/poop on your seats and you can clean it.
I just bought 50 literature mailers and a roll of bubble wrap to organize and store my backlog. I wrote the contents of each on the side and they fit tidily into my cube organizer. Smaller quantities and more sizes are available at postal supply stores, like Mailboxes Express or the UPS Store. Something similar may work for you.
The bed looks like the biggest issue. It just takes up too much space, but I have a few ideas.
If you don't care about not having access to door on the right, move the desk so that's its against that door and push it in the corner. Get something like this and a tension rod to put in that weird awkward corner next to the window to store your handbags and other items that are hanging from both your doors. Remove the grey shelf that's on door left and replace with the mirror. The plant can be moved to the other side of the closet. Maybe display your lanyards and medals above your bed instead like this. It will look more organized and can be part of the decoration.
And if you can, downsize the bed and get a tall bed frame that can fit storage underneath the bed.
Here's a cheap one: https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Houseware-Pockets-Hanging-Organizer/dp/B07CG2R9ST
Doesn't seem like it'd be great for hightops tho
I hang all my tops and dress pants. Jeans, chinos, shorts, underwear, and socks are folded in drawers.
I have this tie and belt rack and three of these shoe racks.
It's those panels used to make storage cubes.
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B007ELAS9G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It's all assembled with zip ties, including the levels :) There's lots of tutorials online!
We use an over-the-door shoe storage thing. It has 24 pockets that we can store different types of cables in. It's really easy to access and keeps things more or less organized -- and it's really cheap! Here's the model we have.
Banana holder. Its cheap and easy.
edit: here is the one I use
Funny thing is my wife hung it on the bedroom door to store all my baseball hats. I just reorganized it to open up about 6 of the slots to hold running gear. Totally handy.
This is very similar to what I have, except the compartments are mesh instead of plastic.
I use this [amazon] (http://www.amazon.com/Household-Essentials-80-Pocket-Accessories-Organizer/dp/B0010XX7ZQ/ref=sr_1_1?s=storageorganization&ie=UTF8&qid=1407948790&sr=1-1&keywords=hanging+pocket+organizer) it's a lot easier than winding the thread on bobbins. I put a diff color in each pocket.
Nope, plan C is on Amazon as well.
I second the over-the-door shoe hanger, but also suggest looking at the jewelry ones too with smaller pockets. My battlestation is in one of our guest rooms and is just a drawer in a dresser. I have a few different sized baskets like these and organize my makeup in those. When I'm putting my makeup on I just take the baskets out of the drawer. I have a ghetto folding chair I sit on and a lighted mirror that stays on top of the dresser.
Since you're not looking to strap down heavy loads, and you probably don't want to start popping rivet or screw holes in your car, or hot weld things, (what the hell, in a car trunk,) JB Weld has a large line of adhesives, one of which will do you just fine. If you have extreme temperatures where you live, they have ones meant to perform in extreme hot or cold conditions.
You'll be able to liquid weld whatever type of anchor point you want to the inside of the trunk. Another method, (if you're just trying to keep a gear box/bin from sliding around,) is to put anti-slip tape on the bottom of the bin.
I use an 8 gal. Rubbermaid ActionPacker, (which holds a shit-ton of gear, probably 30 lbs.,) in the back of my Honda Pilot. I have one strip of that tape on the bottom of it, and it doesn't move an inch. And the more weight you have in it, the better it will work. I have a load blanket spread out to protect my carpet, anyway, and it sits on that just fine.
I really think this is all you need
A lot of people get those closet organizers that have a rod and sometimes shelving, something like this. You can hang a bunch of plants from the rod.
Something like this would work well
I store all my t-shirts on slim hangers in my closet.
I also converted my closet to double rods, like this: https://www.yafangouwu.com/wp-content/uploads/m/m-frugal-closet-rod-under-stairs.jpg
Now I have more closet rod space than clothes.
A lot of people get something like this.
I recently got a tie rack. hangs up in my closet so I can see the ties and it doesn't take up much space. Something like this will work for belts too.
Another approach - leave a storage container - like the type that you might store yard tools in - on your porch
and include an open combination or padlock lock - ask the UPS driver to put the package in the container - and simply close the lock, locking the container with the package inside.

​
There should be enough extras for future 'oopsies' as well.
Ehh on the wire hangers. I use them for my silk camisoles and cotton button ups since the camisoles don't have much fabric on the shoulders to mess them up, and the cotton shirts are less likely to get damaged as well from them. As long as you aren't hanging up knits, it's not that big of a deal.
That said, I have several types of hangers in my closet. AmazonBasics Velvet Suit Hangers - 50 Pack, Black, ate what u have the most of and ive never had a problem with them. The other type is the super padded stuffed hangers and those are for my delicate dresses but idk if they're worth it.

s/o to u/addyct for the original shelf pic/recommendation
I bought an elephant ring holder after we got engaged to hold my ring, but I had to keep moving it from room to room. For Christmas, my fiance got me two more, the cat and the bunny from that set, and his mom got me a ring dish. Now I have to look for places I need to take my ring off just so I can use all four!
Well if your girlfriend does get pregnant this will help

My service uses them for bls and airway stuff on some of our rigs. not for everything just one or two of each. If you label all the compartments it’s really easy to restock since you can see what’s missing. No way to securely lock narcs up though so I don’t think it would help you with your als drugs, but maybe you could get a med bag and just strap it to the netting with a caribeaner or something when you need to

I didn't want any dressers in our bedroom so we made the closet big enough to hold them.

It sounds to me like you want some sort of cubby so you can roll the dresses and have each in its own spot so you can take one out without the others toppling over.
A few ideas:
Here's an 8 gallon box on amazon. It has a predrilled hole for a padlock. Even if you are moving out after the semester, I'm sure this will be very useful in the future. You may have the occasional well-meaning visitor accidentally contaminate your cooking supplies.
Sorry your extended family sometimes behave like a bunch of insensitive jerks :(
I bought this shoe rack from Amazon.
I organize from top to bottom: boots, heels, wedges, flats, sneakers.
I try to only fill up at least five shelves because years ago I was a shoe addict and I realized that was such a waste of money for me.
Not having the rack filled to capacity means I can put my shoes wherever I want if I'm feeling lazy and organizing it nicely later on isn't a daunting task.

This, under the bed, with towels lining it and keeping the toys separate from each other.
I used these. It comes with 23 grids, so you might need more than one pack depending on what your plans are. I used the included connectors plus zip ties to hold it all together. The base on the upper level is corrugated plastic covered in self adhesive carpet tiles.

Hang this on the back of a door to hold odd items or cleaning supplies. It's great in a bathroom if you don't have a lot of cabinet space. You can put hair products, straighteners, blow dryer, whatever in the pockets. It saves a ton of space and makes finding things a hell of a lot easier.

Sorry bro. It was 40. I’m way off
I was eyeing this rack for a long time and I finally bit the bullet after seeing this post!
(Please forgive the mess in the kitchen; I was going to crop it out but I had to include my doggo for scale 🐺.)
Copy and pasting this from another post of mine:
Target, Walmart, or Amazon. Same brand and about $30 shipped from all three. For Walmart and Target specifically, there's no shipping charge if you choose the in-store delivery option. Or check if they sell them in-store directly, mine don't.
The coroplast should be available for about $23 + tax at Home Depot (enter your zip to check availability) for a 48x96 sheet, or alternatively check with local sign shops or plastics distributors, they may be slightly cheaper and have other colors. Home Depot only has it in white.
We just tore out cheap, clumsy shelving in our small walk-through closet (5’ x 6’), pulled up the carpet and put down hardwood, painted over the buttercup yellow to a cool grey, put two 50” wide dressers on each side (one side for me, one for my SO), and installed a simple rod and single overhead shelf system on each side. I just received a box of 100 Amazon basics velvet hangers and little 5” deep bins for konmari-ing the dresser and top shelf. I ordered a minimalist ceiling light from Ikea and I’m picking out a tiny little rug for the space too.
It’s still small, with very little space for shoes, no space for handbags, but holy hell. It’s crazy how enamored I feel with just a NORMAL closet. I guess it’s been years and years since I’ve had access to a closet like this — no weird cubbies or awkward attic type spaces, no annoying bifold doors, no making-do with a freestanding clothing rack in the corner of the bedroom. It’s absolute heaven. I’m going to start hanging and folding clothes this weekend and I’m so excited.
This is the only before photo I have: https://imgur.com/a/L07u4tZ
We’re still not totally “after” and don’t have a decent photo to show off the new flooring, but this is where we are now in the process. It’s wild how a few small changes make a world of difference: https://imgur.com/a/QMRR8y1
