If you’re unable to keep your home organized, these projects can help, with solutions for nearly every room in your house.
Keep items tidy and organized with these easy DIY storage projects. You can look at ideas for the kitchen, office, mud room, craft room, laundry room and more. The best thing, tackle one of these projects in a weekend.
Baking Station
There are easy DIY ways to upgrade basic organization items to gain even more usefulness. Bookshelves or an old TV cabinet, for example, take on whole new layers of practicality when outfitted with inserts and add-ons — here, pegboard to keep pots and pans in sight, a bar for towels and pipes to hold wine bottles. Add baskets and hooks on the sides for additional spots to stash necessities.
Rolling Rack Mudroom
A few special touches dress up an ordinary rolling rack, eliminating the need for pricey built-ins in favor of DIY organization solutions. Choose one for your entry or mudroom that’s about half the width of the space. Include fabric bins for corralling and dividing supplies. In the rest of the space, add a seat (bonus points for a small bench with hidden storage) and baskets that can be easily moved and stashed elsewhere if necessary.
Open Kitchen Storage
Open DIY organization is great for those items used often or daily. Especially in a kitchen, a shelf, and a few hooks can keep glasses, bowls, and other essential pieces in view (added bonus: open storage discourages clutter). Try a combo like this one above a rolling island or next to an eat-in table or banquette.
