33 Organization Solutions To Help With Clutter So You Can Finally Restore Some Inner Peace

1. A durable honeycomb drawer insert that’ll have an instant calming effect on your sock and undie drawer. If you know the feeling of hopelessly digging around for that one pair and comin’ up empty, you need this organizer in your life.

The pieces just *snap* together for easy assembly, and the design expands to fit whatever size drawer you have.

Promising review: “Okay, admittedly, 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 $7.99.

2. storage lid organizer to prevent that feeling of impending doom when it comes time to match a food container to a lid. Bonus points: A pile of lids won’t come tumbling down and smack you in the face when you open the cabinet. Perfection!!

Promising review: “I love, love, love this storage container. Sounds silly, but it changed my life. No longer do I have storage container Jenga! No more stuff falling out of the cabinet every time I open the cupboard. Now I can stack my lids in the organizer and my storage containers fit nicely on the shelf, and I have a lot of storage containers. I would definitely buy this again and again. Great product.” —Laura

P.S. the labels are included! 

Promising review: “These are actually cuter than I expected! They are a tad smaller than some I’ve seen, but they actually looked great and can hold plenty of Q-tips and cotton balls in the spare bathrooms. I have mine on a serving tray with a candle and vase, and they look great without taking up too much space!” —tara savage

5. Or Rubbermaid Brilliance containers when you’re desperate for a practical food storage setup that lives up to your *very* high expectations.

They’re also leakproof with built-in venting lids so you can reheat your lunch and enjoy it right from the container without dirtying yet another dish.

Amazon

BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer says: “And they’re microwave-, freezer-, and dishwasher-safe, too. These are my very favorite containers — I got the 22-piece set to fully stock my kitchen last year, and now I never use my old containers!”

Promising review: “These plastic storage containers are robust and well constructed. They can even be shaken vigorously with soup in them without risking a leak. For convenience, they are completely microwave and dishwasher safe and have held up to 50+ cycles by this point. The seal is significant in that it acts as a vapor barrier (you don’t smell what’s inside until you open it). Huge plus. Additionally, you can unlatch the handles while keeping the lid sealed on, exposing vent holes. This allows you to microwave the contents without having to cover the top or worry about splashing – ingenious design! They’re also gorgeous looking (and this aesthetic holds up, they don’t stain) to boot and stack well.” —Nicholas

Freed up floor space = more room for storage bins!!!!!

Promising review: “I have a small apartment, and the broom closet was always a mess, with the brooms hitting me in the face whenever I took the trash out. This saved me so much stress! The slots have little rollers and they move to fit just about any-size mop or broom. There are also little hooks that can drop down if you want to hold towels or the dustpan, which is what I use it for. This is a must-have organizational tool!” —Jacqui Nibbelin

Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in white or black and as a two-pack).

7. A retro-inspired acrylic beauty organizer you’ll look at lovingly whenever you sit down to do your skincare or makeup routine. Plus, you’ll be filled with a sense of peace knowing your stuff is neatly organized instead of existing in a messy pile that fills you with pure rage.

Amazon

My colleague Maitland Quitmeyer says: “I have this organizer and I love it! It holds a good amount of stuff, keeps the dust at bay, and looks much neater than my old organizer, which just had slots with no lid. Because I regularly try a ton of beauty products, I paired it with a set of stacking drawers from another seller, which aren’t a perfect match for the shade of green, but look good together on my vanity!”

Promising review: “Product arrived quickly and was well packaged. I love how this organizes my beauty products so it’s not all out in the open on my counter anymore. The glass brush holder is the best part, it looks so expensive! Highly satisfied with this purchase!” —SGD1978

Amazon

Promising review: “I have a tiny kitchen with only three drawers, so space is at a premium. My silverware organizer took up almost all of one drawer, so this organizer is a godsend. You can fit quite a few spoons, etc., in each slot. My beater attachments fit perfectly into the top two hollows. I will say I have to flip my forks over facedown in order to be able to shut and open my drawer, but then the drawer itself is kind of shallow. You NEED this if you have a small kitchen with few drawers!” —mialro

Get it from Amazon for $11.39 (available in two sizes and two styles).

PS: You can also get the matching knife organizer for $11.98!

9. A pair of rustproof shower caddy bathroom shelves — they can hold up to 15 lbs each, so you’ll be able to store all your bathroom supplies without a hitch. It also comes with removable hooks for hanging sponges and loofahs!

Promising review: “If you are looking for some shower space and you don’t want to tear out your shower to build in the nitches…grab these babies. They stick great, and hold a ton of stuff! It took our shower from looking cluttered and always having stuff fall underfoot to looking put together, and having everything be right where you need it to get to it. I use liter bottles of shampoo and conditioner and these babies hold both in one basket. Pick up a set, you won’t be disappointed. Also, if you have two showers and only need one basket in each you can split them and get storage in both showers that match perfectly!!” —Chris

Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in four colors).

Check out a TikTok of the cord organizer in action. 

Promising review: “I got this for my minimalist husband who hates getting ‘things’ for gifts, almost as much as he hates clutter. He was practically giddy after we installed several of these on various kitchen appliances. It’s not just storage — but moving the appliance around from its storage location to the countertop is a nicer experience. He was seriously swinging around a food processor with one hand saying ‘this is so much neater!’ To each their own I suppose. For us normies, it does exactly what it’s supposed to. Easy to stick on, I like that it holds the plug neatly as well. I would love if it came in white, but the gray is a nice neutral.” —Elizabeth L. 

Get a two-pack from Amazon for $10.95 (also available as a four-pack. 

11. Super-slim velvet hangers if your cluttered closet situation is out of hand and needs some serious help. The thin design lets you store many more hangers in your closet, so you’ll have even more room to make your organization dreams come true!

Because of the velvet coating, spaghetti straps and slippery fabrics won’t keep falling off. And unlike similar options, reviewers promise the flocking does *not* come off of these and all over your clothes.

Promising review: “These hangers do all the work for me. I was finally inspired to rid myself of flimsy tacky dry cleaner hangers and bulky plastic ones — I’d have to size up my clothes in order to determine which ones wouldn’t slide off the plastic. With these hangers, everything works, and the velvet is like an easy-to-use magnet for my clothes. Nothing slips. The space-saving design makes a surprising difference. I share a small master closet and thanks to these hangers my side is roomy and organized now.” —E. Marshall

I never buy the same spice twice, since you can see every row and every spice… a great solution to for the open concept kitchen! Totally worth it. They don’t slip or move around as long as you measure and cut to drawer size. The color is neutral and clean super easy clean up too.” —Annabely

Promising review: “Ordered this to motivate myself to cook a bit more, and I have to say, this thing does help. Love that it comes with a bunch of labels that are ready to use, which makes navigating the spice aisle a bit less daunting to me for some reason. It also feels very sturdy, and is a handy space saver if you have a smaller kitchen like I do.” —Jim

It’s super easy to use and my clothes are perfectly folded every time. As weird as it sounds, I actually look forward to folding my laundry now. I wish I had purchased this sooner! I like the design it has and I love how compact it is. After I’m finished folding my laundry, I just fold up the folding board and tuck it away! It’s lightweight and seems durable. I recommend this to everyone, even those who hate folding clothes. I was skeptical at first, but after trying it out, I am 100% satisfied with my purchase and this product!

Amazon

Promising review: “EXACTLY what we were looking for. Oak color blends right into [the] interior of cabinets and white supports match our dishes. Going to, for sure, buy more for every cabinet in the house. Instantly gained twice the storage. No longer have to pick up a stack of dishes to grab a tray, etc. Bargain as well. Looks way better and supports so much more than old wire shelves… Solid wood/metal. Easy to install each shelf with nothing but the four screws included and a Phillips head screwdriver. Had all four “built” in less than five minutes. 100% recommend! —Rebecca Lynn

Promising review: “This was perfect for organizing under my bathroom cabinet. I used one each for (1) facial and dental, (2) hair, (3) makeup, and (4) “medicine cabinet” type randomness including sanitary care. I just pull a whole bin out for whatever I’m doing and put it back when I finish. Bye-bye countertop clutter and under-cabinet disaster area.” —Tee H.

Just imagine a dusty mess with shoes thrown all over each other in a sad attempt at giving some appearance of order, and you will have a good idea of why buying this shoe organizer was one of the best ideas I’ve had this year.

Since they were going to be out in the open, I wanted something that was functional yet decorative. This fit the bill perfectly! We have towels from Ikea, and even tightly rolled, the rack was a bit tight, so I just used my hands and gently pulled each hook out a bit and now the towels fit perfectly.
