    1. Use a cutlery drawer organizer if you have plenty of flatware but not enough room to store it. Soooo many kitchens lack a sufficient amount of drawer space, so try this out if you need your silverware collection to share a drawer with other essentials.

    2. And if you've got a nice collection of knives but no countertop space to house them, try a in-drawer bamboo block that can hold up to 12 knives *plus* your sharpener! This is also a great get if you have little ones running around your kitchen and you'd prefer to keep your knives in a drawer instead of out in the open. Safety first!

    3. Preparing food and baked goods with a KitchenAid mixer is such a dream, but finding the space to store all the attachments is not. If you find yourself in this conundrum, these 3D-printed KitchenAid Tool holders mount right right under your upper cabinet so they're easily accessible but not taking up any cabinet or drawer space.

    4. Keep your fridge in tiptop shape with a six-piece pantry organization set. Now everything (even eggs!) will have a place and be easy accessible.

    5. Try a two-pack pantry organizer if you love nonperishables but don't have any place to put 'em. These conveniently hang on the inside of doors, so they utilize space that would otherwise go unused.

    6. Neatly store all your spices in a drawer thanks to these liners that you cut to size to fit any drawer. One roll can fit up to 30 spice bottles.

    7. Keep all your food storage lids in one place with this adjustable lid organizer. The lids are stored upright so it's obvious which is which, and that means you'll never again have to sift through a tower of lids trying to find the right one.

    21. Create additional organization and space thanks to these shelf dividers that turn those shelves above your closet rod into a way more efficient use of space. You can easily pile stacks of clothing and bedding without fear of them falling over, and the dividers' spacing is completely customizable.

    23. Make sure all your bras, socks, and undies are neatly stored with some removable inserts that fit into your drawer. The four-piece set comes with enough storage compartments for six large items like scarves or nighties, eight spots for underwear, seven spots for bras, and 24 spots for socks.

    24. If you have a lot of thin garments like camis and and summer dresses, use a special hanger that can hold eight tops total. This means you'll save a ton of horizontal closet space, because now the garments will hang vertically instead of side-by-side.

    25. Instead of keeping your jewelry in a heap in a drawer, try this two-sided jewelry carrier with 32 pockets and 18 hooks and loops. It also hangs, so you can keep it in your closet or on the back of your door — do whatever works for you!

    26. Traditional hangers take up a ton of space, so try some slim-fitting velvet ones if your closet is completely packed. The slimness of these will literally create up to 50% more horizontal rod space.

    27. And if you still need more closet rod space, use a second rack that connects and hangs down from the top one, therefore creating 100% MORE rod space!

    37. Make sure laundry day is a breeze with a rolling hamper that separates dirties into four categories. I personally have this, and use it to sort lights, darks, delicates, and gym clothes. Each bag can be individually picked up, or you can roll the whole hamper into your laundry room if you're doing all your laundry at once.

    39. A nest of cables can be a real eyesore, and one way to fix it is with a hub that hides it all away. Nestle a power strip in it and then run up to six cables and cords out of it.

    40. Or just use some cable clips if you have a few loose cables that you want to keep organized.
