Some unusual items to help you organize
1. Pizza boxes – provided they’re not too dirty, pizza boxes can serve as a portfolio for your kids’ work. By helping them decide which goes in the box, they’ll learn to prioritize better work and organize their things. This also helps eliminate so many scratch papers being scattered everywhere.
2. Shoe boxes – perfect for organizing photos and other stuff, like books or comic books you want to put into storage. Shoes boxes are also good general storage devices – just remember to label them so that you know what’s inside.
3. Ice cube trays – if you have an ice maker, then you probably don’t need ice trays anymore, but they can serve as a way for you to store and sort jewelry and other small items. This goes for kids too.
4. Plastic bags. You can use them to line your garbage cans for easier trash disposal.
