Organization Tips and Home Storage Ideas

Posted by: on January 29th, 2013 | One Comment

 

Almost every home has one: a scary closet, a little room of horrors, or the junk drawer from another planet filled with who knows what. There’s no time like right now to tackle your clutter problem. To lend a hand, we put together a few organization tips in this video to help you sort out the messy areas in your home.

Getting started is always the most difficult step in the process of reclaiming order from chaos. Just remember – you don’t have to do it all at once, nor should you even try. Whether it’s the closetgaragekitchen pantry, home office or the shed in desperate need of organization – jump in and get started somewhere.

We’ll show you some storage systems and options for organization that you can easily customize to get everything back into its proper place.

You’ll see wire shelving systems to tame unruly closets and pantries, modular and ceiling mounted storage for overrun garages, tracks systems that turn attic spaces into neat storage hideaways and our ever popular plastic totes for versatile everyday storage and organization. Plus, you can also take a look at cabinets, cubbiesshelves and a whole assortment of accessories that will enable you to turn underutilized space into functional storage.

And the best news is – once you do get organized, it’s much easier to stay organized.

We have more DIY and home improvement videos here on the Home Depot blog and on The Home Depot’s YouTube channel.

We’re not saying if you build one of these awesome craft tables you’ll become the next Martha Stewart. But they do provide plenty of room to work, and space to store for all your crafting supplies. Having a dedicated work station and excellent craft storage allows you to be at your creative best and complete projects with ease. And that most certainly will make you a queen (or king!) of crafts in your own right.

Martha wants to help.

In this short video she shares some of her favorite craft storage and organization ideas. She’ll show you how to build a simple craft table using a hollow core door and two of her 6-cube storage organizers. You will also see how convenient it is to store all your crafting supplies using colorful fabric storage bins that fit neatly inside the cubbies.

Whether it’s jewelry, sewing, needlework, holiday crafts or whatever projects you enjoy working on at home, here’s a way to create a functional, well-organized work space in no time.

And once Martha has you inspired, take a look at our online Storage and Organization department for everything you need to keep your home, garage and office organized.
