Pinterest is addictive, but I love all the great ideas that can be found for organising the house without spending much money. Starting with items you already have or can find second hand, kerb side or at a garage sale can mean you end up with a totally unique piece in your home for a fraction of the cost of a new item.
Here are some of my current favourites.

binder clip as power cord holder

Cake stand to organise dish soap and sponge

CD racks to organise tupperware – love this!

Stacked cutlery holders as jewellery organisers

IKEA hack cutting board holder

magazine rack as pot lid holder




Find your simple,
Deb

It kind of makes me want top hold onto everything just in case.. but hubby would kill me for hoarding.

I really like these storage ideas! Our house is old and crappy, the cupboards are abysmal, storage is woeful. But we can’t afford to renovate yet, so I think making the best of it with some of these quirky ideas would be great. Thanks for sharing

Oh I love this post Deb!! So many fabulous ideas. I will be moving house in about six weeks and will be looking for some inventive ideas to organise our bits and pieces. Thanks for sharing! xx
this is the third one I have done – you should definitely check out the other 2 under household organisation category – so many ideas (and you could follow my board on pinterest and get them as soon as I pin them LOL)
