1. A set of drawer organizers that basically FORCE you to fold your socks and underwear. Your mom will be so impressed next time she visits, she won't even look under the bed!!!
This set includes four organizers: one with six long pockets, one with eight square pockets, one with seven pockets big enough for bras, and one with 24 small sock pockets.
Promising review: "This is a great organizer! No matter what else is going on in my life, at least my underwear drawer gives me the (false) sense that I have it all figured out. This organizer was just what I was looking for. The material is malleable, which makes it much easier to get in and out of my drawer, and it's also very easy to clean. I've been using it for five months now and haven't had an issue with wear and tear at all." —NAD

2. A simple-yet-brilliant lid organizer with adjustable dividers so 2024 will be the year you can finally, finally, FINALLY find the lid that actually fits the container you're using, instead of giving up and going with plastic wrap instead.
Promising review: "This product does exactly what it's supposed to and does it well. In under 15 minutes I took my nightmare lid drawer and turned it into a functional, convenient storage space. The dividers were simple to install and provided flexibility. Slowly but surely I am getting my tiny, chaotic kitchen under control, and this got me a huge leap closer." —S. Hawthorn
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in four styles).
3. A roomy, space-saving tea organizer so you can banish bulky boxes for good and actually see all your flavor options when you go to brew a cup.
Some reviewers drilled holes in it or used Command strips to mount it to the wall!
Promising review: "I have a ridiculous amount of tea (looseleaf and bagged). This product worked marvelously! It lives up to its promise of holding over 150 tea bags (if you utilize the bottom drawers as well)! It looks very nice on my counter. I've even been able to stack my little tins of loose-leaf tea on top and beside it to create a nice little tea corner." —The Browns
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three colors).
4. The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, the iconic Marie Kondo's bestselling book that will take even the most organized people to the next level of neatness. Just watching the Netflix show wasn't enough for you — you want to savor Marie's every word.
Promising review: "This sparks joy! I discussed this book years ago with a friend of mine when she purchased it as a new release. She told me how it would change everything, but at the time, I didn't really think I needed it. I've always had a bit of a minimalist attitude — I'd make trips to donate unused items and gifts and spend for need (not wants) mostly, and I am fairly organized. After watching the author on her most recent Netflix show, however, my interest was piqued. I read this book in one sitting and found her stories of how she became a consultant delightful. Inspired, I immediately went to work, implementing her suggestions, and honestly can't believe the difference. Tidying up has allowed me to reorganize my house into a space that I now actually like. Furthermore, it's reorganized my way of thinking. I would recommend this read to anyone. So many takeaways!" —SummerGal
Get it from Amazon for $8.17+, Target for $10.02, or Bookshop (to support local booksellers) for $15.80.
5. Trusty adhesive cable clips so a tangled mess of cords won't get in your way when you're working on a project and it's coming (*extremely Haim voice*) down to the wire.
They've got over 14,000 5-star ratings!
Promising review: "I needed this on my desk to keep my phone charger cord in place. My previous solution was to place a paperclip on the cord and position that between the two desk pieces. This works great for keeping my cord in place. A coworker was in town visiting my office and saw this, and said it was exactly what she needs too. I plan to use the others at home to help clean up the mess of cords behind the wall where my TV hangs. The open part (where the cord goes in) is bigger than I anticipated, so it can hold more than one cord. However, the Lightning end of an iPhone cord stays in it, and the top part where you put the cords in is soft yet springy, so it's easy to get cords in and out. It's also probably smaller in diameter than a quarter, so I have it on top of my desk just out of the way of my mouse pad, and it never gets in the way." —B-Dawg's Dad
Get a set of six from Amazon for $6.97.
6. Or an adhesive cable organizer you can just pop on the side of your desk, back of your TV stand, your car's center console, or wherever you just have a crap ton of cords.
It can fit pretty much any type of cord under 11 mm wide, and it's from a small business based in Winter Garden, Florida.
Promising review: "Everything this about this is great. It was an extremely good price for the amount you get and how much they can hold. It holds my thickest cable extremely well. If you're looking for a budget cable management option, buy this." —elgin
Get it from PrismOne on Etsy for $8.87+ (available in two colors and in packs of 3–12, and in more styles here).
7. A multipurpose organizer to hang by your front door so you'll never have to worry about forgetting anything in 2024 — be it physical (it can hold your keys, mask, mail, etc.) or mental (there's a dry-erase board to write to-dos).
It even comes with a dry-erase marker.
Promising review: "I just received it and it's as described. It's beautiful, well made, good quality, and the perfect size. Not too big to take up too much wall space, but big enough to hold my mail and keys and to write notes on the board. It took me about five minutes to hang it on my wall and was very easy to install. I am completely satisfied and I highly recommend this." —A.D.
Get it from Amazon for $20.99.
8. A game-changing hanging wall organizer with six removable folders for holding every last one of your papers, plus a handy clear pocket for displaying must-see documents or a 2024 calendar.
Each folder can hold up to 25 sheets and the whole thing can be collapsed and secured with the attached cord for easy transport. It even comes with blank stickers for labeling the tabs. Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this organizer.
Promising review: "I've used one of these for several years, and when it got damaged, I ran right out to replace it. It's bright and easy to use. We use it as a way to communicate with our staff. Each person has their folder, and I have a place to put items I need to know they received. I have three of these for three different purposes. What I love best about this product is that when I'm in a hurry and on my way to a meeting, this file system has my back. I hang one by the door of my office so I can grab the file I need. It's colorful and has helped me color-code my projects as well. Now, I've begun to think of my needs in terms of colors and I can find them quickly and easily. The calendar pocket in the front is also helpful. I have another one of these for family hung by the back door of the mudroom at home." —Shelly Sidhu
Get it from Amazon for $10.59+ (available in four colors).
9. A simple yet revolutionary habit calendar designed to help you accomplish all the goals you've set for 2024 — and track your progress in a very satisfying way. It's got 12 months' worth of planning pages with space to organize daily, weekly, and monthly habits and goals to help you be your most badass self.
This bestselling wonder is by Free Period Press, a queer- and woman-owned business that makes adorable stickers and paper goods! It's also made from recycled paper to help you achieve your resolution of living a lil' more sustainably. There's even an activity at the beginning to help you brainstorm habits to track, and each month starts with a themed page (for example, "sleep," "gratitude," and "finances") with some words of wisdom and a suggested habit to try.
Promising review: "I wanted to reduce stress and nail down some habits, and I've always done better when I can see progress tangibly. I'd been eyeing this calendar for some time, but was unsure if it was worth the money. I decided to go for it. SO glad I did. It has some 'homework' pages at the beginning to help you focus in on your goals, but mostly it's the cleanness and ready-to-go nature of the monthly calendar pages that have worked for me. It's helped me be more disciplined AND narrow my focus so I'm not worrying about doing everything under the sun each day. I liked it so much that I bought a second one for a friend. Another friend saw me using it and also made a purchase. I'm really happy I made the leap." —Flight of Stars
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
10. A sleek and minimal-chic folding tabletop jewelry organizer with slots and hooks for tons of necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. It collapses into a cool triangle design that'll not only helps it fit on your dresser, but also turns it into a stylish piece of decor.
This Etsy shop specializes in cool wall decor and storage solutions!
Promising review: "This jewelry stand is exactly what I've been looking for for years!! So beautiful and minimalist, I love that it has spots for bracelets as well. John, the shop owner, was so helpful when my order was lost in the mail and sent me a replacement. Great shop and product!!" —Riley
Get it from EliteQShop on Etsy for $59.99.
11. Or a lockable, LED-lit jewelry storage mirror, which can be mounted or hung (at three adjustable heights!) over your door to give you a chic and compact getting-ready space. Just pop on a necklace, close the mirrored door to make sure it works with your outfit, and go!
I have a similar, freestanding one of these I got from Pottery Barn Teen years ago and it's genuinely one of my favorite pieces of furniture in my apartment.
Promising review: "This is probably the best purchase I have ever made on Amazon. This is very well made — like, incredibly well made. It stores soo much stuff!!! My daughter loved it and now I am eyeing one for myself. My daughter had jewelry and trinkets everywhere in her room. This put everything neatly in one space. It's elegant. Mirror + jewelry holder = game changer. Highly recommend." —Linnette
Get it from Amazon for $119.99+ (available in seven colors).
12. A genius meal planning pad to help with one of adulting's biggest challenges — actually figuring out what to eat and what you need to make it. It lets you map out your munchies for every day of the week, make your shopping list as you go, then tear off the list when you're ready to hit the store!
It's made by a small stationery biz and it's got magnets on the back so you can easily hang it on your fridge. I put one of these in my mom's stocking a couple years back, and since then they've been a repeat purchase!
Promising review: "This simple tool is just what I need to get dinner organized for each week. Deciding what to cook one night at a time can be stressful for me, and the added time of running to the store for the day's missing ingredients can really add up. Sometimes we'd just give up and go out for dinner. This product has saved me time and money." —minmom24
Get it from Amazon for $9.95 (available in five designs).
13. An ingenious clear shower curtain liner that's got roomy mesh pockets to keep all your personal-care products within arm's reach, without cluttering the tiny corners of your tub.
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly has to say about this wonder: "I couldn’t be happier with my purchase, which seems expensive for a shower curtain liner but is totally worth the price. Its mesh pockets are incredibly sturdy and even *I* can fit all my shower stuff in there. (FYI, I often keep three or four bodywashes and conditioners each in the shower at all times.) There’s lots of reinforcement where each pocket meets the liner and at the top of the liner, so dropping a weighty bottle of shampoo in a pocket is NBD. Obviously, you want to try for even weight distribution between the pockets and toiletries, but it doesn’t seem to be an issue. And these smooth-gliding hooks I also bought for my new digs make opening and closing my shower curtain as smooth as buttah." Check out her full review here, #7.
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in three colors).
14. Waterproof vacuum-sealed space-saving bags for anyone who's ever wanted to literally shrink their clutter. Pop your stuff inside and use your hose-ended vacuum cleaner to remove all the extra air, then ooh and ahh about how small your storage problems now seem.
It also comes with a travel pump, so you can use the bags for packing and reseal them when it's time to head home! Not sure which size to get? For context, the medium size claims to fit 8–10 sweaters and the jumbo size can hold up to four pillows.
Promising review: "I’ve been having a hard time finding space to put away my winter clothes to make room for summer and decided to try this space saver. I’ve never tried vacuum storage before, and am very pleased and now I can’t imagine another way to put away off-season clothes. I used my own vacuum cleaner as I didn’t think the pump that it comes with would be as effective, and it was super easy and quick. The hardest part was folding the clothes LOL." —Giselle
Get a pack of five medium-sized bags from Amazon for $28.99 (available in four sizes).
15. The Panda Planner, which has over 7,000 5-star ratings and might not just be a planner, but rather a way of life. It allows plenty of room to organize all the details of your day so you can close a few (or a few hundred) of the tabs that feel like they're open in your brain at all times and be the best version of yourself this year.
This 90-day planner has monthly, weekly, and daily sections that each have plenty of space to write down goals and plans at the beginning and wins and ways to improve at the end. There are also spaces for extra notes, places to write daily affirmations, what you're looking forward to, and what exercise you're planning to get each day.
Promising review: "I'm a huge fan of planners. I love to stay organized but I have a hard time remaining positive in my environment. I found this and ordered it RIGHT AWAY! Taking time to write about what you're grateful/excited for changes your whole life. This is my word to anyone considering this book. If you are depressed (like I was), apathetic (like I was), and just not living to your potential, BUY THIS BOOK! The first day I used it, I made more sales that day than in the whole prior month. I was SUPER motivated. I kept looking at it to not only take care of my tasks but to continuously see that positivity. I could go ON AND ON about this planner. This is the best thing you can do for your mental and physical health that is drug free and works immediately!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in eight colors and three styles).
16. Or a daily planning pad of 50 tear-off sheets you can use to map out your day. It's got space for what you're grateful for, priorities you must do today, a to-do list, appointments, achievements, meal planning, logging exercise, and notes and doodles, plus a water intake tracker and a blank clock to fill in if you do better with images than words. They truly thought of everything, and this pretty pad will help you feel so accomplished!
It's made by a family-owned, Wisconsin-based small stationery biz.
Promising review: "So glad I bought this! This is a great little notepad! Cute, practical, and with just enough writing space to capture the most important things. Well worth the price!" —Nikki Grillo
Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (also available in nine other styles).
17. A wall-mounted mop and broom holder, because you must have your life together if even your cleaning tools are organized (even if you rarely use them).
This organizer has five clamps for holding longer items (mops, brooms, or rakes and other gardening tools) plus six collapsible hooks.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this product! I cleaned my laundry room last week and wanted to organize all my brooms, mops, and even my mini vacuum. This handled the job and then some! It can be installed in minutes and is very strong. I feel comfortable with it holding an item that's moderately heavy compared to the rest. I love the extra hooks as well." —Judyque
Get it from Amazon for $14.97+ (available in four colors).
18. A genuinely genius color-coded keyboard cover illustrating all the shortcuts for Adobe Photoshop, for anyone who uses that app about as much as they use their email. And here you thought your keyboard wasn't something you could organize — ha!
Chic Geeks is a Black woman–owned business specializing in gorgeous tech accessories and clever keyboard covers!
Promising review: "This Adobe Photoshop shortcut keyboard is sooooo dope...I am buying another one. I love it. Gives my MacBook so much personality." —Bree Moore
Get it from Chic Geeks for $16 (originally $20; available for seven different MacBook models).
19. A 13-pocket purse organizer so two of your most fundamental needs — being able to carry everything you could ever need in your life in your bag and actually being able to find said things in said bag — can be met at the same dang time. And here you thought it couldn't be done.
Promising review: "I travel a lot and like to use totes rather than a handbag. The challenge is keeping that open space organized — everything falls to the bottom of the tote! This organizer is perfect. A firm felt fabric holds my phone, papers, cosmetics, pen, notebook, etc,. without any issues retrieving any of them. It also has a clip-on strap that attaches to my keys, and it's long enough to reach from inside my tote to unlock the door! So clever and very handy. The center section of the organizer is a removable zippered pouch that could be used as a smaller organizer in another bag or can be removed if I have a larger item to carry in the center of the bag. The organizer also works great for moving from tote to tote. It's the right size and height. All in all, I'm very happy with the purchase!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $22.88+ (available in seven sizes and 19 colors).
20. A two-piece wooden desk shelf to turn your desk from a mess of books, papers, and knickknacks into a Pinterest-worthy example of organization porn.
The part on the left, with the tall wall and perpendicular rectangular compartment is one piece, while the low shelf and open bookcase part on the right is another. You can separate them or squeeze them together however you want! Plus, it comes with everything you need for assembly, including a screwdriver.
Promising review: "I got this to put on my desk in my dorm to provide more storage and I was blown away by the quality. It held all my notebooks and textbooks no problem. I've had a full-size fern in a terra-cotta pot on it and it hasn't buckled. It has many different slots so I could keep all my sticky notes, note cards, paper clips, etc. in arm's reach. It was very easy to assemble and even came with the screwdriver to put it together. I highly recommend it especially if you're a college student or work at a desk frequently." —Breanna Jones
Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in six colors).
21. A three-tiered organizer, because taking ~steps~ to stay organized this year doesn't have to mean stashing your products away in a cluttered cabinet where you can never find them.
Three ~tiers~ for this versatile baby, which in addition to toiletries, some reviewers also used to store spices or display collectibles!
Promising review: "I love this shelf! I have used them to completely organize my bathroom closet and plan on using it to organize even more spaces around the house." —Robert
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sizes and nine colors).
22. A set of water-resistant, space-saving packing cubes over 18,000 (!!!) people swear by for maximizing their suitcase space. Besides, on this year's big trip you're going to want to show your vacation clothes a little more respect than just shoving them chaotically into your bag.
Promising review: "I'm officially sold on packing cubes! These things are amazing! I can't believe I've been packing without them my whole life. These are great quality and come in fun colors. I appreciate the mesh lining that allows you to peek inside. They're also a great value. I packed my clothes, shoes, and toiletry bag for a 10-day trip to Europe as I normally would first, and then packed them in the packing cubes. There was so much more room after packing in the cubes! The items I fit in the cubes and bag were: two jackets, a jean vest, four pairs of pants, two pairs of shorts, a romper, four dresses, a maxi skirt, seven tank tops, four shirts, three camisoles, three pajama sets, 15 pairs of undies, six pairs of socks, and four pairs of shoes. Why are you still reading?? Go buy these cubes!" —Tiffany
Get a set of four plus a laundry bag from Amazon for $20.99 (available in 10 colors).
23. A sturdy shoe rack that can hold up to 30 pounds of fabulous footwear instead of letting it all getting squished at the back of your closet. After all, your shoe collection deserves to be put on a pedi-stal.
The levels can also be removed if you want to leave more room above one shelf for tall boots.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Sam Wieder swears by this baby, writing: "I actually don't remember how I managed to find shoes in my closet before getting this shoe rack (I say as if didn't literally just set this up three weeks ago, but oh well). I kept my shoes neatly lined up at the bottom of my closet, but time and time again, would find myself going on a treasure hunt to find a pair I was looking for, because they somehow got buried underneath a sea of other random belongings I would throw into my closet for easy storage. This looks really neat after you set it up and place shoes on it, and I highly recommend it. I will say, this is much easier to set up if two people can do it together, but, it's not impossible to set up alone. It may take a bit more time, but it can be done with a bit of patience!"
Get it from Amazon for $19.44+ (available in four sizes and three colors).
24. Majorly space-saving hangers to transform your tiny closet into something you can work with, even if you've got an extensive wardrobe. They also come with the added benefit of helping you convince your mom that no, you do not have too many T-shirts/jean jackets/floral dresses, because look, they all fit in one corner of the closet!!!
There are hanger hooks on both ends, so you can attach either one (like in the pics above for maximum space-saving) or both (to hang easily wrinkled clothes a little farther apart) sides to your closet rod. Each one has five slots for more hangers, so one set can store up to 50 pieces.
Promising review: "TEARS OF JOY. OK, I know that's dramatic, but I cannot say enough about how these hangers have transformed my tiny, odd-shaped closet. I was so desperate for more space, I was considering spending big bucks to have a professional come in and redesign the space. Then I found these and it's like my hanging space quadrupled! It feels downright luxurious in my closet now. I can see all my clothes and nothing is squished together like it used to be. I can also comfortably add a substantial amount of clothing and would still have room to grow. BUY THESE IMMEDIATELY!" —milanina77

25. A roomy can organizing rack that over 39,000 people have to thank for finally getting their pantry clutter under control once and for all. You ~can~ do it.
&media=https%3A%2F%2Fimg-mkr.buzzfeed.com%2Fbuzzfeed-static%2Fstatic%2F2023-12%2F8%2F22%2Ftmp%2F6f5ae425a355%2Ftmp-name-3-1500-1702074302-6_dblbig.jpg%3Ftemplate%3Dpinterest-vertical-halftone-v1%26title%3DMjggUHJvZHVjdHMgVGhhdCdsbCBIZWxwIFR1cm4gWW91IEludG8gQW4gT3JnYW5pemVkIFBlcnNvbiBJbiAyMDI0IChZZXMsIEV2ZW4gKllvdSop%26color1%3Dpurple){kind=link}
It can hold up to 36 cans or jars and comes with six adjustable dividers so you can fit different sized items in different sections. Plus, you can choose between two heights for each shelf!
Promising review: "After extensive research, I decided on this can organizer. I really needed one because with two dogs and a cat, I have so many cans that I've been using the space under a tall, narrow table in my kitchen in addition to floor space and counter space for them. As soon as it was delivered this morning I put it together. It was very simple and only took a few minutes. The instructions are very easy to figure out. I was very pleased! No more boxes on the floor, no more valuable counter space taken up. It seems well-made." —G. Nevius
Get it from Amazon for $22.97 (available in four colors).
26. An over-the-cabinet hair tool organizer to keep all your must-have styling supplies right at your fingertips, without turning your getting-ready space into a tangled mess of wires.
Promising review: "This is a great design! My hairstyling tools are hidden when I'm not using them and are very organized so it's so easy to grab them whenever I need to. Before this, I'd bought something similar that didn't have the dividers. It hid my hair tools, but they were on top of each other, so I had to pull them all out when I wanted to use just one of them. That's not the case with this. I get out what I need to use in the morning before I go to work, while the others stay in place. I'm so glad I found this." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in six colors).
27. A five-pan organizing rack for anyone who is 137% DONE with the cacophony that usually results from pulling a pan out of their stack. Cooking bacon and eggs while your S.O. sleeps off that NYE hangover? You can do it now.
It has a hole and comes with hardware to allow you to screw it into one place to keep it secure if you want!
Promising review: "This organizer works beautifully! No more cluttered cabinets! When I need a skillet, I pull one out in a matter of seconds versus digging through hazardously piled pans that my family carelessly threw back in after they were clean. I did not have any issues with any of my pans fitting in the slot, and even my extra-large pan (used for sautéing large quantities of veggies) fit into the slot, but does stick out ever so slightly. The ONLY pan that does not fit into an actual slot is my deep pan skillet, the one I use for making stews. I was entirely expecting that and instead use the very top rack for it to sit on top of. So counting the top space, this rack fits UP to five skillets. You do have to put the racks together upon unboxing, but its simply putting the two pieces together and putting in two screws to tighten the two rack pieces. The product (once assembled) is VERY sturdy. There is the option to actually screw it down in your cabinets, but I have not found the need to use it. —Ally
Get it from Amazon for $14.87+ (available in three colors).
28. A cute and clever fruit and veggie hammock that's a win-win because it'll save space in your kitchen *and* let your produce lounge in style. 😎
It comes with four hooks four hanging, and it's from a San Diego–based small business specializing in macramé goods!
Promising review: "This (larger size) hammock holds so much! Large onions, 6 lbs of potatoes, etc.; its footprint in our kitchen is small and the amount this hammock holds is large. This hammock replaced a two-tiered stackable plastic bin, which took up so much space on our small countertop." —VA
Get it from Knapp's Knots on Etsy for $27.90+ (available in two sizes and 12 colors).
