1. A pack of shelf dividers for organizing your clothes into neat and distinct piles. These dividers provide stability for soft clothes that tend to fall over into one big pile of mess.
2. An expandable honeycomb drawer organizer because you know what's really cool? Being able to find a matching pair of socks.
Promising review: "I am a bit of an organization freak. I purchased two of these organizers (yes, you do need two PER drawer) to organize my underwear drawer. I agree that $20 seems like a lot to pay for a few pieces of plastic to organize a drawer no one else really sees, but...it's totally worth it. The gratification I got from being able to see exactly what I had, neatly organized, easy to find... Wow. I definitely recommend this product. And the actual dividers are well made and super easy to assemble. As a previous reviewer said, the number of times you will look at your drawer and be totally satisfied makes the price well worth it." —Brigette
Get it from Amazon for $15.99.
3. A vertical shoe tower so you can organize the pile of sneakers, sandals, and boots that's sitting in your entryway.
Promising review: "This little guy is great. Normally, my staircase has shoes all over it. Now, the shoes are in their tower by the staircase and it’s pretty awesome...maybe in part because my partner and I can now see who isn’t putting their shoes up! It’s a great, sleek design and takes up so little space. I can walk around with it if I need to because it’s durable and sturdy, and was ridiculously easy to put together. Yes, it’s more than many other shoe trees but it’s worth it for the footprint (or lack thereof!) and that it’s going to last for a really long time." —Skyrocketocelot
Get it from Amazon for $65 (available in black and white).
4. A KitchenAid attachment organizer that'll hold all the add-ons you've purchased for your stand mixer. Take advantage of vertical space and store them under your cabinets and within reach!
3D Home Solution is a small biz based in Frisco, Texas that makes really genius home organizers.
Promising review: "Just what I didn’t know I needed! My attachments didn’t have a good home. The whisk is too fat for my drawers, but I wanted to keep them together, and near the mixer, so they just sat on a shelf. Now they have a home, and they’re not blocking the canisters on the shelf!" —Noora
Get it from 3D Home Solution on Etsy for $12 (available in three colors and in two mounting styles).
5. An electrical outlet cover with a power strip to organize cluttered cords stat. It's also pretty great if you want to push your furniture right up against the wall but can't because your phone charger adapter is in the way.
Promising review: "I have an outlet above our mantel that’s meant for a wall-mounted TV. We have a large painting covering it. We wanted to use the plug to power two Wi-Fi speakers on the long mantle. The thinness of the plug is perfect behind the painting. The power strip is hidden by a mantle clock. So, we have our two speakers to either side and no visible wires. This product may not work for every application, but for us, it’s 10 stars." —Chashum
Get it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in eight styles).
6. A silverware sorter if you cringe every time you open the drawer and see your forks, knives, and spoons spilling out of their tray.
Promising review: "I bought two of these because I have a disgusting amount of toddler/baby silverware along with regular silverware. Since I put these in, WOW does my drawer look organized and empty. I get compliments all the time." —Melanie slinger
Get it from Amazon for $9.56.
7. A jewelry cabinet cleverly disguised as a mirror for anyone who's basically given up on wearing jewelry because detangling the pile of necklaces in your jewelry box is not something you have the time or desire to handle.
Promising review: "Why the heck didn't I get one of these years ago?? This is a quality product. Sturdy and well made. At first I thought the light was a little gimmicky but it totally helps me see what I'm doing in my dimly lit bedroom. This is soooo much better than a jewelry box or trying to figure out your own clever storage like I have for years (trying to put off splurging for a product like this). I totally regret not getting one sooner. A lot of earring capacity, ton of everything capacity and ease of use for someone as lazy as me is critical! If you're on the fence, get one, you won't regret it! So worth the money!" —PHILLIP G.
Get it from Amazon for $139.99+ (available in six colors).
8. A pan and lid organizer because it would actually be helpful to see where all your pots, pans, and lids are. Plus, this rack will prevent your cookware from scratching each other.
Promising review: "It was better quality than I thought it would be. It worked perfect. It definitely helped me organize the cabinet of pots and pans and made a cluttered mess into an organized functional space. I would recommend it to anybody. Now I can just reach in and grab the fry pan I want and it left plenty of room for my pots to stay to the right. You could not even see the bottom of my cabinet before." —Careful shopper
Get it from Amazon for $18.97+ (available in three colors).
9. A cute velvet storage ottoman so you can create a little more storage in your tiny apartment *and* provide guests with an extra seat when all the room on your itty bitty couch is gone.
BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord swears by hers. In her own words:
"Another bonus? If you flip the lid over, it has a wooden base, so you can *also* use this as a teensy snack table. I recently got one of these for my new apartment to stash my candles and ~candle accessories~ in and it's pretty much become my favorite piece of furniture?? I use it to prop up my feet during work hours and sometimes if I want to eat on my couch I'll use it as a tray. It's also sturdy enough to sit on, if I ever wanted to have guests over and needed an extra chair. It was RIDICULOUSLY easy to set up — I had it done in less than 10 minutes, and probably didn't even need the directions. It also just looks so darn cute (and comes in so many colors that I'm tempted to buy another!)."
Promising review: "I was using a small foldable step stool in my bedroom to reach the top shelves of my wardrobe. But you know, those things aren’t pretty. It wasn’t be bringing me joy, just begrudging utility. This ottoman brings me joy. It’s pretty, it’s lightweight so I can move it easily to use it as a step stool, and the storage capacity is perfect for things like my nightly moisturizers, my Kindle and journals, and other little miscellaneous things." —Monica N
Get it from Amazon for $59.99 (available in eight colors).
10. A flexible silicone kitchen sink organizer that'll neatly hold your sponge, dish soap, hand soap, and more. (I can't be the only one who gets annoyed when my roommate leaves a wet sponge just sitting on the counter!) And it wipes clean since it's made of silicone so you don't have to worry about yucky mold and mildew.
Promising review: "I have been looking for something to put my dishwashing soap in and not worry about spills around my sink. Tried so many and then I finally found this. It's easy to wash, soft rubber, does not collect water underneath and keeps everything nice, clean and organized. I love it!" —karmen haik
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in three colors).
11. A set of adjustable shelves to fit your storage needs. This way you can prevent clutter from taking over every inch of space on your desk.
Promising review: "I have gone through many different desk organizers trying to find the right one and this is it. It is sturdy, adjustable, and stylish. I read that many people were disappointed by the fact that there were no covers for the screws but I purchased the light wood tone and I think the screws add to the aesthetic. It looks great and I love it. I would recommend this product to anyone who asked!" —Julia Harrison
Get them from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in four colors).
12. A set of TikTok-famous adjustable mug organizers if you're a sucker for cute mugs but are running low on precious cabinet space thanks to your ever-growing collection. This genius organizer creates a sturdy surface so you can stack your mugs and basically cut in half the amount of space they take up on your shelves.
Psst — if you want to see them in action, check out this viral TikTok of the mug organizers that's clocked millions of views.
Promising review: "I love these cup organizers. I have a small cabinet above where my coffeepot is and these have made it a pleasure to open that cabinet. All cups are organized and easy to get to. They stay right where they should be. No more stacking them inside one another and them falling over when I opened the cabinet. I also use these for some bowls in my dish set. Works great. I just order a couple more and I am going to use them for my china cabinet. I wondered when I first bought them because the price was a little high. Worth every penny and more. I can not say enough good about these." —ChefGirl
Get a set of six (to organize 12 mugs) from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three colors).
13. A wall-mounted retractable clothes rack for anyone who lacks a dryer or a lot of extra space. Each rack can hold up to 60 pounds, making it a great drying rack or extra storage for winter clothes in the garage.
Promising review: "MUCH better than the foldable floor type. It doesn't fold up and fall over like the other one we had did all the time. It stays out of the way and holds a lot of wet clothes for easy drying. VERY sturdy." —Elizabeth Duff
"I love it! I use it in my laundry room. It’s so much better than the conventional clothes rack!" —KAREN J.
Get two racks from Amazon for $38.99+ (available in white and silver).
14. A lid organizer because your kitchen drawers are basically a black hole. This will keep the tops of your food storage containers neat and tidy.
Promising review: "I have forever had problems keeping my storage lids organized. I used to keep them in a large storage container that I only used a few times a year, but whenever I needed a lid, I had to dig through the pile inside that large container. Not a good solution! I found this by accident on Amazon, and I was intrigued. I looked at the reviews and decided that for the price, it was worth the risk. When I received it, it was very simple to assemble. Included are plastic separators that snap into little slots on the sides. It was a quick and easy setup. All of my storage container lids are now housed in the organizer and fits into a nice space in my storage container drawer. So much of my time has been saved from having to dig through lids, and inadvertently dropping things and generally being annoyed by my old system. This new organizer has helped so much!" —Jami Lynn
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in a variety of sizes and styles).
15. An over-the-tank TP holder so you never have to text your roommate in a panic and ask them to leave a spare roll outside the door. It's also better than toilet paper stands, which always seem to be an inch too far away whenever you reach for the roll.
Promising review: "The over-the-tank toilet paper holder is so much better than one that is on the floor. I love it." —Eileen Rios
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in four colors).
16. A pack of five desk drawer organizers that'll create a little home for all your stationery, makeup, or bathroom products. You can find the arrangement that works best for your drawers!
17. An under-cabinet drawer to hold your bottles of cleaners *and* to store smaller supplies like sponges, brushes, and cleaning cloths.
Promising review: "This turned out to be one of those 'great values' I can brag about to my friends (and always skeptical husband too!!). Expecting a flimsy, shaky-type unit, I was astonished to find it SOLID and STURDY. It assembled in a flash. The basket slides easily in the track and the wires don't bend or get crooked with heavier items. I have several powder type cleaners and bottles leaking fluids that were always falling over, making a mess to clean up. Because the basket pulls out smoothly, everything stays upright. I've tried several types of organizers in the bathroom cabinet, the revolving plastic unit, the tiered steps, the U-shaped shelves, and nothing has worked as well as this one. I may buy more for other 'storage needed' areas, e.g. linen closet, bedroom closet, and my office. Oh, it's also easy to take the unit out from under the sink and recessed floor to be able to clean under there." —Amazon Customer
Get it on Amazon for $28.97.
18. A food storage container if you need to keep your pets' kibble fresh and out of their greedy paws. The snap lock latches will prevent moisture and pests from creeping in.
Promising review: "I wasn't sure if I really needed this, but I have been really happy with the convenience and surprising sturdiness. It fits one bag of food and comes with a scoop. I use the smaller container for treats. Easy to open, close, lock, and unlock with one hand. The lid is very sturdy, the hinges are thick, and the lock is solid. It is a great size and doesn't take up too much room. The rollers are very nice, as well. The scoop is more useful than my measuring cup. I haven't tasted the food, but the seal seems like it really seals. The lid opens wide enough it doesn't interfere with the food while I'm pouring it in. Much better value than other pet food containers I've tried or looked at. Very pleased with the purchase." —L M
Get it from Amazon for $33.29+ (available in six colors).
19. A K-Cup organizer for arranging your coffee pods so you can grab the one you want and know when you need a restock. Plus, you can slide your coffee maker in front of the organizer if you'd prefer no one see it.
StorageTheory is a small business based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
Promising review: "This is a wonderful item to hold your K-Cups! It mounts super easily with your existing electric plug cover and it is soooo nice when you have limited counter space to have this on the wall by the Keurig! You can configure the holder to suit the wall area that you have available. Wonderful idea! It actually looks pretty and decorative. Very fast shipping too. Highly recommend!!!" —boogieman25
Get it from StorageTheory on Etsy for $17.87 (also available with 28-slot capacity).
20. A hanging file organizer because your WFH station (aka the dining room table) is currently littered with what feels like 50 million pieces of paper. This'll help you take advantage of vertical space and create a home for all your clutter.
Promising review: "It’s quite sturdy and durable. Looks great! Pockets are deep enough to hold the papers. It doesn’t move when you open and close the door. It saves space and solves the problem of paper clutter. I am happy with this purchase and will purchase more in the future as needed." —adamandeve
Get a 10-slot organizer from Amazon for $15.99 (available in four styles).
21. A set of refrigerator storage bins so you actually know what you have (and what you don't have!) instead of opening the fridge to see a jumbled mess and saying, "Welp, I guess I'm ordering takeout again!"
This six-piece set includes two wide and two narrow drawers, one can dispenser drawer, and one egg drawer.
Promising review: "The containers are sturdy and work great! Before my fridge looked like a mess you'd find on an episode of Hoarders — now we're ready for a photo shoot with Martha Stewart! Perhaps that is a slight exaggeration, but truly, I couldn't get a bottle of salad dressing out before without putting three jars of jelly on the counter, knocking over a bottle of ketchup, and stepping on the dog. Now I just open the fridge, pull out the drawer, and take what I need. The dog never even has time to get underfoot!" —hari sharma
Get them from Amazon for $36.99.
22. A two-tier expandable shelf that'll bring order to your bathroom cabinet. There's even an opening in the center so it can fit around the sink pipes. Genius!
Promising review: "I found this shelf to be extremely sturdy and handy! I loved how it works around my pipes and how it looks like a perfectly clean and organized cabinet and not cluttered. I tried everything from baskets and bins to wire shelves but they did not work. This under sink shelf lets you see everything. The metal is plenty sturdy for bath and beauty items. I love how it extends very wide! Love this shelf!!!" —Nicole Myers
Get it from Amazon for $24.97 (available in three colors).
23. A shower curtain liner with mesh pockets to save your toes from an avalanche of heavy shampoo and conditioner bottles that fall from your itty bitty ledge every time you shower.
Promising review: "This is the perfect storage solution for our tiny NYC bathroom and so much better than a shower head hook caddy. It's great that the pockets are mesh so as not to hold water/get gross." —Emily Tozer
Get it from Amazon for $22.15.
24. Some space-saving vacuum storage bags if you're already dreading having to store all your bulky sweaters come March. With these bags, you can vacuum all the air out so they take up a fraction of your closet space. And you can do this while they're on the hanger instead of trying to fold and smush them in a regular vacuum bag.
Promising review: "These are the best storage bags ever. Nothing else works as well or is as effectively. I've tried them all and these are by far my favorite." —CCD
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four sizes and in a variety pack).
Check out my coworker's Spacesaver vacuum storage bags review for more deets!
25. A tea bag organizer for helping you finally — finally! — organize your tea bag collection. This won't just help you hide the clutter of half-full boxes, but it'll help you actually get rid of the clutter!
Promising review: "This holds so much tea! I organized a shelf full of tea boxes into this sleek holder, which takes up a third of the space. It holds any standard size bag and I was able to shove a couple larger ones in to, although they are crammed in. The side edge is shaped in a way that makes it easy and comfortable to grab and it is very sturdy. I keep it on a high shelf and haven't had any issues pulling it down daily. I keep herbal teas on one side and caffeinated tea on the other. Don't underestimate how nice it is to see all your tea at the same time. No more digging through a dozens boxes to find exactly what you want." —Krise
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in two sizes).
26. A set of stainless-steel S-shaped hangers because you can basically only fit like three pairs of pants in your drawer before there's no room left. These'll maximize hanging space so you can store all your pants neatly in the closet and use the valuable drawer space for other clothes.
27. A broom and mop organizer so the precariously balanced pile of cleaning supplies don't come tumbling down the minute you grab your Swiffer.
Promising review: "Holds better than any rack I've had. Nothing falls off and the hooks are a welcome addition for holding the small items. This is my second one, as I liked the first one so well." —Jami Wallis
"Sturdy and strong. I tried other brands but they are not strong enough to hold brooms. This one really works. I wish there was more space between each holder, but otherwise I'm very satisfied." —eb
Get it from Amazon for $14.97 (available in three colors).
28. An over-the-cabinet storage system to hold all your heat-styling tools...which up until now have been sitting in a tangled mess in the drawer. It's too bad no one will see how nicely and neatly you stored them once you shut the cabinet door.
Promising review: "This product did exactly what I needed it to. Before, all my items were in a drawer and the cords were a pain, but this metal basket minimized clutter, kept things organized and separate, and also looks nice. It fits two of my blow-dryers, a flat iron, and curling wand. The bars are adjustable as well, but the basket fit perfectly to my cabinet. Worth the buy." —Alyssa Jewell
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two finishes).
29. A narrow cart that'll take full advantage of every bit of storage space in your apartment — like between your washer and dryer. It's sturdy enough to hold heavy bottles and only requires a few inches of empty space.
Promising review: "I'll be honest, I thought the price was ridiculous for a little plastic cart. But let me tell you, it's worth it. It pays for itself the minute you load everything onto it and you see how much space it saves. I got half of my laundry room shelf back! And that's a big deal in a small apartment. I'd absolutely recommend this cart. It's durable and made of plastic so if any chemicals leak, it won't ruin anything or leak onto the floor. Couldn't be happier with it!" —Diana Krupa
Get it from Amazon for $44.99.
30. A sturdy organizer if the snacks, water bottles, and toys strewn across your car need a home that's not the floor.
Promising review: "I ordered this with the plan of summer road trips for my kids. While we haven’t taken many trips this summer, the organizers are working great to keep my car mess free. My two teens have their seats organized to their liking, so they have their items at hands reach. The pockets are thick and made of strong material. The pocket for the tablet works great and still allows for touch screen while watching movies, games, etc. The mess pockets fit a nicely size water bottle. It’s a great feature to have now for a backup mask to be safely put in the car so it will it be forgotten, keeping their cell phone chargers, ear buds etc, in place without the mess or tangle of items. For someone with small children, preteens, or teens or anyone who road trips this is a great item. The straps are thick and the snaps are strong. The entire system looks like it will hold up for a while." —Nicole Capuzzi
Get two from Amazon for $17.99+ (also available in gray).
31. A 15-piece set of airtight food containers for helping you achieve a pantry that looks like Clea and Joanna from The Home Edit stopped by. Sure, pasta is great and all but aren't you tired of buying boxes of spaghetti only to realize you had an unopened box shoved in the back of your cupboard? This'll help you figure out what you do and don't have at a glance.
Promising review: "I have tried other brands of containers for airtight storage but they are a hassle to clean. This system is fantastic for an airtight seal yet easy to clean. I like the variety of sizes, the cute labels, and the chalk marker. I will be ordering more!" —mds2006
Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in three colors).
32. A space-saving hanger organizer because you're an adult and you 100% cannot have a jumbled bin of hangers.
Promising review: "I didn't know that I had needed this all of my life until I got one for my husband out of desperation. His hangers were all over the house, so I got this to try. I assembled it for him while he was at work and immediately ordered one for myself. It doesn't take up much floor space but holds a ton of my velvet hangers. Much better than any other method I've tried to contain hangers in the past, and it looks really nice. Sturdy and high quality. Easy to assemble." —SavvyShopper
Get it from Amazon for $23.51 (also available in multipacks).
33. A entryway organizer so Mochi's treats, leash, and harness are all in one spot. As soon as she hears that magic four-letter word (the one that rhymes with talk), she'll go bananas, so you better have all her outdoor gear ready to go. And there's also room for your umbrella, mail, car keys, and more!
Vascito is a family-owned small business based in Lowell, Michigan, and they've been creating beautiful custom pieces for over 30 years.
Promising review: "We love having all of Mabel's supplies close at hand. The two jars are great for managing her treats coming and going. Easy one hand operation, great design. The company's customer service was fantastic; I asked if they could send an unfinished top so I could customize and they made it happen! Overall a very well-built product." —Mark
Get it from Vascito on Etsy for $79+ (available in 10 styles).
34. Some under-bed storage containers that'll maximize storage space and conceal all the bits and bobs that need hiding. You could probably even use it under your couch depending on how much space there is between the base and the floor.
You can use these for so much more than clothing! Think craft supplies, extra toiletries, shoes...basically whatever you have too much of.
Promising review: "I have a full size bed and two of these fit perfectly underneath! They are a good size and hold a lot of stuff! They are easy to pull out and I like that the zippers open up the all the way unlike some other brands I’ve tried! They seem like they will last a long time which is great!" —Kaurin
Get it from Amazon for $12.97+ (available in six colors).
35. A plastic bag organizer to rein in the chaos of your ziplock bag drawer. Now when you're packing a lunch and you grab a bag for your pretzels, you can be sure it's a snack-size bag and not a gallon size bag (unless the plan was to eat a gallon of pretzels, and in that case, you do you!).
Promising review: "My drawer is no longer a mess of mismatched boxes. Love that’s it’s streamlined and labeled for easy access. Easy design and comes with all the labels! As a professional organizer, I will be recommending and installing this product in many of my clients’ homes!" —Pam D
Get it from Amazon for $47.98.
36. A rolling laundry sorter if you've definitely given up halfway through separating your towels from your delicates and just tossed the whole load into the washer. *looks around nervously* Heh heh! Not me! I would never!
Some genius reviewers had the idea of labeling each bag to make it clear what's what. To do that, you'll need some letter stencils and a permanent marker.
Promising review: "It will make sorting and doing laundry much easier. The cart has locking wheels to keep it in place. Also, each section is separate and can be lifted out on its own. Will work out much better than some previous versions I've had where compartments where stitched together. I'm excited to use this. Was pretty easy and straightforward to put together." —Cassandra Samuels
Get it from Amazon for $40.97+ (available in four colors).
37. Sheet Keeper, an elastic band labeled with a sheet size for preventing any confusion the next time you go to the linen closet looking for the sheets for the guest bedroom. You'll be able to quickly and clearly see which sheets are the full set — aka the guest bedroom sheets — and which ones are the queen sheets — aka your bed sheets.
Sheet Keeper is a small business based in Los Angeles.
Promising review: "Great product. Came quickly and they work great! Such a great idea to keep sheets organized and together while being able to tell what size bedding it is. Will order again for sure!" —devonhansen1
Get two from Sheet Keeper on Etsy for $15.99 (available in five sizes).
38. A genius T-shirt roll holder because it'll hold your massive T-shirt collection without complaint. Sure, it's not glamorous but someone's gotta do it.
The Roll Kepper is a small biz based in Kelso, Washington that's run by Traci, who has over 40 years of crafting experience.
BuzzFeed writer Mal Mower has one and loves it. In her own words:
"Before getting this I was driving myself up the wall with my bad folding habits. I basically shoved all my shirts into the storage drawers under my bed, because I have a teeny tiny closet (the picture above gives you a solid idea of how small it is). This has given me a massive amount of clothing storage I didn't have before. The quality is stellar and Traci is 10/10 the most thoughtful person I've purchased an Etsy product from!"
Get it from The Roll Keeper on Amazon Handmade for $12.99+ (available in two sizes and two colors).
39. A makeup sponge organizer so your clean sponges aren't contaminated by your dirty bathroom counter. It's also great for holding sponges as they dry.
Promising review: "This little guy is everything I didn't know I needed. I was surprised by how useful this was. It fit my Real Techniques sponges and the minis perfectly as well as the Beautyblender and I have some medium-sized sponges that fit perfectly. If you have a lot of sponges and you use them on the daily this is great. If you have a larger bathroom, I think it would be perfect to set it up in there. You could store them and when you go to do your makeup grab your sponge(s), wet them or wash them and go." —DSheehama
Get it from Amazon for $12.49.
