Trunk Organizer

Having bought a new small car, I was frustrated that the trunk cargo net only held about four bags of groceries. Everything that was placed behind the net rolled around in the trunk on the way home from the grocery store. I bought 4 back-to-school plastic crates to hold my groceries. No more items getting lost! I added a cheap foam cooler for cold items too. No more melted butter and ice cream!

Vacation Watering for Plants

When you're going on vacation, fill the bottom of your bathtub with a small amount of water. Let your household plants sit in the water, then take off on vacation and don't worry about your plants drying out. It really works!!

Cotton Swab Tip

We save our old adhesive bandage tins to store cotton swabs at home and when we travel. We can fit quite a few in a tin, and then we just put stickers on them so we know which is adhesive bandages & which are cotton swabs.

Shoe Holders

After you empty a roll of SCOTT paper towels, instead of throwing away the cardboard roll, insert it in your boots. This will keep them straight and organized in your closet and you won't have those boots folding over.

Traveling Toothbrush

When traveling, I hate having to pack a wet toothbrush, since you leave right after brushing your teeth. Use your hairdryer to quickly blowdry your toothbrush. It takes a few seconds, and you have a dry toothbrush to pack!

Sorting Panties & Socks

Ikea sells a plastic bag holder that comes in clear or pink. It's plastic and hangs on the wall. I bought 4 pink ones and hung them on the wall in my closet. I put white socks in one, black/misc. socks in another, everyday work panties in one, and cute panties in the last one. It's easy to pull out the pair you want through the dispenser and you can see them all to choose the one you want. Plus it is super quick when putting away clean laundry.

Plastic Milk Jugs

I use gallon plastic milk jugs to store plastic grocery bags by cutting a hole in the side and stuffing the bags inside. (I use these bags to toss cat litter clumps.) I also keep a jug filled with bags in the car to have bags handy to throw away take-out food trash.

Toothbrush Storage While Traveling

Sometimes when I am traveling, I forget to bring a case for my toothbrush. I don't like to get everything wet in my bag on my return trip home, so I use the shower cap they give you in the room to wrap it up for my return trip.
