This one touch close container is so easy to use — no fidgety clamps or hard-to-open screw lids. It has a silicone lining on the inside of the lid, making it ideal for keeping snacks fresh for longer — and fresher snacks mean less stale food destined for the bin.

Promising review: "There's this whole corner of Pinterest that is just organised pantries. I swear, it's the most soothing thing to behold and I was determined to make my pantry over the same way. The key to getting yours to look like the ones on Pinterest is using uniform, stackable containers. I love these ones from Kmart — rather than a bunch of half-eaten bags of snacks everywhere, I can stack them all neatly in a row. They also come in several larger sizes, so I can use the same design for my pasta, cereal and larger snacks."

7. This desk calendar, so that you can organise your daily tasks and watch your progress as you go.

Amazon

This desk organiser has a gorgeous floral design and lets you see your entire month at a glance. That way, you know what's coming up and what needs to be completed. And let me tell you, the act of ripping a week out as you begin a new one is borderline orgasmic.

Promising Review: "I've always been an incredibly disorganised person, but since using a desk calendar to map out my weeks, I have been productive as heck. When I started working from home, I wondered why it felt like I was all over the place. Then I remembered that I left this baby at work. After ordering a new one, I'm finally back on schedule."

8. This over-the-door shoe organiser, which will solve the problem of where to put the excessive number of shoes you own.

Mariela Summerhays / BuzzFeed

This one comes with 24 mesh pockets — thinner shoes, like ballet flats and sandals, can fit in the one pocket, while bigger pairs can be spread over two. If your door is more narrow, you can purchase a 12 pocket organiser.

Promising review: "I've always lined my shoes neatly in a row on my closet floor — but with my addiction, they were starting to take up more space than my husband was willing to give. Enter this shoe organiser. I have to admit, it's kinda brilliant. I can still display my fancy heels in my closet, but the shoes that get regular use go here at the end of the day, right next to our keys."

Buy it from Amazon Australia for $15.99.

9. And this over-the-door ironing board holder, because the behind-the-door method isn't working out too well for you or your floor space.

Amazon

Made from powder-coated metal, this over-the-door hook will clear space for you to actually open your laundry door the entire way.

Buy from Amazon Australia for $9.60.

10. This brilliant storage solution, which makes something of that random space between the fridge and wall.

Clare Aston / BuzzFeed

This slim shelf is fitted with wheels, so you can keep it tucked out of sight and bring it out when needed. It has four shelves perfect for storing spices, oils and canned food (and in my case, wine).

Promising review: "I moved in with my partner to a beautiful one bedroom apartment about six months ago. We only had one cupboard that wasn't filled by an exhaust fan or dishwasher etc, and that was quickly filled with our plates and glassware — we ended up appropriating a huge shelf of our linen cupboard for our dry goods!

Finally, I had enough and bought this rolling shelf to fit in the empty gap next to our fridge. It was super easy to assemble, had enough space to empty out our linen-turn-pantry shelf and ended up matching with our kitchen cupboards (go figure!). The only real down side is that the wheels aren't the best quality, I think they need to be just a touch bigger, but for the price point, I really can't complain!"

13. This sun visor-attached sunnies holder, because glasses cases are bulky and take up room and who needs them?

Amazon

Where have these been all my life? Honestly, whenever I open a glasses case — whether it be at home, in the car or elsewhere — my sunnies are never anywhere to be found. This sunnies holder not only holds up to two pairs of glasses, but can also be used to hold cards you always want within reaching grasp in the car — like parking tickets or your debit card for Macca's runs.

14. This magic double-sided tape, which you can use to free up workspace and can be washed and reused, time and time again.
