This list is for those people who crave organization in their spaces.  If you are like me, you seem to exist better, think better, feel better, when everything has a place and is in its place.  This list includes recommendations for the main spaces in your home: kitchen, bath, bedroom, and kids' and family spaces.  I use ALL the items I am recommending in this list and will continue to add to it as I find and try more ways to get organized.

When I say I like every area of my kitchen organized, that includes under the sink.  I hated seeing bottles/items unorganized, toppled over, making it hard to find and access products easily when I needed them.  These pull out trays are awesome.  They save so much space and makes your under sink area look clean and pristine. For extreme organizers!  (I also have a set under my bathroom).

If you like your bathroom countertops clear and spacious, this toothpaste and toothbrush storage unit will do just that and it has so many features!  It mounts to your wall or your bathroom mirror (I mounted mine on my mirror).  The toothpaste tube dispenser keeps you from wasting toothpaste.  The tray on top lets you store mouthwash or other bottles.  It has a small pull-out drawer that you can store make-up, floss, etc.  It includes 2 removable cups that can be used to rinse after brushing.  Well worth the cost!

When it comes to storage and organization in kids spaces, I'm for anything that has pull out storage.  I thought this unit was great because it not only looks good as a furniture piece, it has storage cubes that can easily store toys and other items. The top shelf is good for books.  It comes in other colors besides gray: blue, pink, and purple.
