I've been doing a lot of organizing as I set up new systems for the new school year. Here are the items I'm loving at my house and around the school library.

I love these large format acrylic square bins! They are 12x12x8 and I use them everywhere. Most recently I overhauled our "Costco" shelf and used these for all of the pantry items and bottom shelves. I love how cleanly they display everything and mak...

These skinny acrylic bins are another must. They fit great between the larger bins on a shelf and are the perfect size for packets and boxes of pasta. I most recently bought a bunch to use in our school library, where they make it each for students t...

These shelves are so easy to put together but also so sturdy! They’re a great bang for your buck and hold two of the 12x12 bins side by side pretty well!

I love these bins for snack foods (my kids can reach in and get what they need without taking them off the shelf). They are also great in our school library, where I use them to organize biographies by topic! Sturdy and easy to fill/arrange.

I love how these organizers feel. They’re durable but also flexible so it’s easy to arrange them in your drawers to keep everything tidy. We also use them in our Lego cabinet for small pieces that need a home between projects.

There are lots of label makers available these days, but Dymo will always be my go to. There's nothing better than organizing the bin, picking up the Dymo and finishing the job by adding the label.

Ok you don't NEED a cricut cutter for organizing...in fact it will cause you to have more stuff to organize, but sometimes the bigger bins crave bigger labels than the DYMO can give and that's when I like to cut my vinyl labels.

I resisted this caddy for so long because it felt silly to spend $20 on something that holds my sponge, but I finally splurged. I’m so glad I did. No more yucky sponges or bottle brushes lying all over the place. It all fits and looks nice and neat. ...

I love how these deep bins fit my freezer drawers! I feel like I doubled my space just by using these to keep it tidy/getting rid of the boxes.

3M hooks have come a long way! These are actually pretty cute and I stick them up anywhere my kids have the habit of leaving things lying around (swim goggles by the basement door, baseball gloves by the back door, etc).

These are so sturdy and durable! The size of the bins is big enough to be helpful without them getting in the way on the back of the door. I use one on our basement door for the boys’ sport gear and one in the laundry room for laundry and cleaning su...

Getting the cords off my counter and creating a tidy area for charging honestly helped my mental health. The visual clutter and constantly touching/moving cords was actually driving me insane.
