This Door Hanging Laundry Basket Is A Great Space-Saver

  via Amazon  

Four people share our small bathroom, so laundry baskets that can hold all our dirty laundry take up a lot of valuable floor space. This lightweight door hanging laundry basket is a great space-saver  and simply hooks onto the top of the door to install. There’s a handy zipper in back when it’s time to empty the dirty laundry so it’s a cinch to use. Plus, telling kids they can play ‘basketball’ with their stinky socks ups the odds that dirty clothes won’t end up discarded on the floor!

This Mini Garment Steamer Is Perfect For Travel

  via Amazon  

Whether you want to make a good impression at work or have to look professional on business trips, this mini travel garment steamer has your back. I abhor ironing but those rare times I need to wear something that’s not lycra or fleece, I pull out this little steamer and it zaps wrinkles in a snap. It’s smaller than an iPad so you can easily fit it in your suitcase or store it even in small spaces – ours is tucked in the super narrow shelf inside our laundry closet.

This Gorgeous Water Bottle Is Hydration Goals

  via Amazon  

My water bottle’s pretty much a permanent fixture on my desk, so why not make it a really pretty one? This KOR water bottle fits the bill with its gorgeous modern design. It comes in  seven cool colors (my fave is the rose gold) and the sleek BPA-free vessel won’t get swampy-gross like metal bottles tend to do. The carrying handle and silicone sealed locking lid mean it won’t spill all over your purse or gym bag so it’s perfect for hydrating on the go, too!

This Silver Toilet Brush Looks Like Modern Art

  via Amazon  

Cleaning toilets is my least favorite household chore so I avoid probably longer than I should. This modern toilet brush actually looks pleasant to use and instantly elevates bathroom style! The sleek stainless steel design not only looks great but the umbrella shape of the handle prevents yucky toilet water from splashing up onto your hand. Even better news is that the brush is easy to replace and the holder comes apart for easy cleaning so it’ll stay looking new for a long time.

This Hanging Home Organizer Keeps Everything In Its Place

  via Amazon  

The reason our kitchen counters end up covered in stuff is there’s often not a good place to store all the little items we use during the week, random papers the kids bring home or mail we need to sort. Problem solved: this hanging home organizer has five generously-sized pockets for all your bits and bobs and the thick fabric is sturdy enough to hold heavier items like tablets and water bottles. My favorite part is the cute patterns – the blue or tan stripes will go with most decor and the neutral polka dots look great in kids’ spaces.

This Foldable Duffel Bag Is A Travel And Gym Superstar

  via Amazon  

I can’t believe how affordable this generously-sized foldable duffel bag is! It’s durable nylon, so it’ll take a beating and it packs down into itself so it’s easy to take anywhere – “I forgot my gym bag” is no longer a valid excuse! If you use it as a carryon, it has a special strap that slides over upright luggage handles for easy transport. The bag comes in 18 various colors and patterns from subtle to neon and has hundreds of rave reviews!

This Flexible Shower Caddy Is A Versatile Organizer

  via Amazon  

A disgusting layer of slimy mildew builds up pretty fast under all the bottles packed onto our tiny shower shelves and since downsizing my shampoo collection isn’t an option, I’m calling this flexible shower caddy in for organizing help! You can mount it in several configurations like over the shower head or on the shower curtain rod depending on your bathroom layout and the extra-wide shelves have a built-in drainage system. My favorite part is the “bottle collars” that let you store bottles upside down so you can use up every last drop!

This Pencil Case Keeps Your Gel Pens In Order

  via Amazon  

This multi-layer pencil case is obviously good for holding colored pencils and other school supplies, but I’m using it to organize my gel pen collection! I treated myself to a few new adult coloring books and the plastic box my gel pens came in is getting a bit worse for the wear. Each of the four layers in this durable case holds 10 pens, plus it has larger loops for any other items you want to store so there’s plenty of room for all your art supplies!

These Reusable Produce Bags Keep Fruit & Veggies Fresher, Longer

  via Amazon  

One of my goals this year is reducing food waste, which requires getting better about using up fresh fruit and veggies before they go bad in the fridge. These Keep It Fresh produce bags extend the usable life of fresh produce and flowers up to 10 times longer and reduce the foods’ vitamin loss by up to 50%! They work by absorbing the ethylene gas emitted by ripe produce that speeds up decomposition and each of the 30 one-gallon sized bags can be washed and reused up to 10 times so they’ll pay for themselves many times over.

This Digital Coin Counting Bank Makes Saving Fun

  via Amazon  

We’ve got piles of loose change squirreled away all over the house by our magpie kids and I’ve been meaning to round it all up one of these days.

This Spice Drawer Organizer Is An Organizing Miracle

  via Amazon / Kate  

I feel like your spice drawer’s level of organization mirrors how much you have your ‘poop in a group’ in other areas of life. Unsurprisingly, mine’s a hodge podge of random jars stuffed into a drawer that’s too full to close, so it’d hugely benefit from this flexible plastic spice drawer organizer you can cut to custom fit your cabinets. The reviewer images on Amazon giving an inside look at strangers’ kitchen drawers are oddly compelling and I’m experiencing major storage space envy!

This Portable Razor Lets You Shave Anytime, Anywhere

  via Amazon  

Maybe grooming goals are a weird thing to aim for, but I think it has more to do with feeling confident and put together. If shaving your legs makes you feel that way, then this Sphynx portable razor will be a constant companion in your handbag, gym bag, beach tote and carry on luggage. It’s great for last minute touch-ups or full on shaving sessions since it includes a mini water spray bottle, moisturizing shave bar and razor with refillable blades. It’s basically the sexier, more functional next-gen version of the classic Flicker razor, for those of us who can remember that far back!

These Powerful Cleaning Wipes Quickly Get Your House Sparkling

  via Amazon  

Our contractor introduced me to these Tub O Towels Heavy Duty Cleaning Wipes and they’ve been my go-to for keeping the house respectable ever since. Kids’ handprints of unknown substance all over the bathroom walls, homemade slime experiments and paint spills on wood floors are no match for this tub of 90 thick, oversized wipes. Even though they’re heavy duty cleaners, the fresh-smelling citrus formula is gentle enough on my hands that that I don’t have to wear gloves and the tub lasts forever.

This Cute, Modern Countertop Composting Bin Is Display-Worthy

  via Amazon  

Eco-friendly products tend to lean beige or utilitarian, but this countertop composting bin is attractive enough to keep on display since the durable plastic comes in decor-friendly colors like mint and gray or a fun bright yellow! And if it’s in your line of sight every day, you’re much more likely to remember to recycle your food scraps. The compact bin’s tight-fitting lid that keeps odors in and unique interior system that keeps bags from slipping down win major points with the many satisfied reviewers.

This Perpetual Calendar Is A Cool Way To Track Time

  via Amazon  

A key component of goal-setting and getting is a time constraint, so if you’re going to use a calendar anyway, it might as well be one designed for MoMA. This modern perpetual calendar doubles as desk decor as it elegantly marks the days and months. I like how the months are tracked – as a procrastinator, it’s a nice visual of exactly how much time is left in the year to complete everything I want to! Best part?

This Yumbox Keeps School Lunch Fresh & Fun

  via Amazon  

Packing my kid a lunch from home that includes healthier stuff feels a lot better and is much less expensive than school lunch, but I’m competing against kid faves like hot dogs and pizza. I needed a way to sell her on homemade lunch and make it fun. She mentioned her friends’ cool Yumbox lunch containers and after Googling to find out what the heck she was talking about, I also fell in love with the cute tray illustrations and easy to clean design with no tiny pieces to lose!
