My Favorite Holiday Storage Tip
Is “Extra Storage Space” on your holiday wish list? Look no further! My absolute favorite way to instantly create
more storage space is the elfa door and wall rack. http://www.containerstore.com/s?q=elfa+wall+%26+door+rack&submit=
You will think a brilliant Elf created this
goodie, however, the Swedish company is called elfa (lower case e) owned by The Container Store. I use this product ALL the time with my
clients to give them additional storage space on the back of a door or small
wall space.
TIP: Go
vertical to maximize all available space in an area
Add pantry space by hanging the rack on a kitchen door. You
instantly (takes 10 minutes to set up) have 80” of storage! Three different
sized baskets let you customize your new found space.
TIP: Choose
organizing solutions that are adjustable
When the snow begins to fall, put gloves, hats and scarves
in the baskets for easy grab and go. When
the warmer days return, move the baskets around and add your flip flop
collection, sunscreen and beach towels to the baskets.
Changed your mind about which door to hang the rack on? Simply loosen the hardware with the allen
wrench provided and move the rack – couldn’t be easier! Better yet, buy two racks during the elfa sale beginning December 26!
TIP: Store your
items close to where you use them
I have two of these racks in my kitchen. One is on the pantry door and the second rack
holds all of my gift wrap supplies.
Since I like to wrap gifts on the kitchen island, the rack is on the
door leading to the basement – an arm’s reach from the island.
Ways I have used this wonderful rack with my clients:
Office supplies in a mini home office
Small toys in a playroom
Craft room storage
Laundry soaps and cleaning supplies
Mudroom storage for hats, scarves and mittens
Bathroom make up storage
Happy
Holiday Storage to you!
