Ep 039: Outside-the-Box Organization

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">After a quick recap of the episodes from the November Thankfulness Series, I suggested ways to think outside the box when organizing and styling your space. Here are some of the examples that came up in this episode, plus a few extras. </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I’ve used kitchen drawer dividers for arts and crafts, makeup organizers for a desktop display, over-the-door shoe rack in our kids’ activity closet, a large party ice bucket for a laundry hamper, an art cart for a podcast station, and a divided turntable (lazy susan) in just about every room of the house! </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Just because you need an organizer for your bedroom or closet, doesn’t mean you’re limited to shopping only in that department. I found a clothing organizer for my daughter’s room in the bathroom section of Bed, Bath & Beyond. Don’t forget your 20% off coupon before you place your order! </span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shopping the kids section for your organization and home decor can have great benefits too. These days the kids department can offer great design choices totally suitable for an adult space, but for a fraction of the cost. Next time you need a basic sheet set for your queen size guest bed or a couple of blackout panels for the windows in your master bedroom, checkout Pottery Barn Kids! You’ll get a great quality product but for less since it’s from the kids’ store. </span></p> <p><br /> <br /></p> <p><strong>Highlights from this episode:</strong></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{2:51} Recap of previous November episodes</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{7:35} Celebrating milestone moments on Instagram and the podcast</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{11:08} Shopping for items in unexpected areas of the store</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">{15:38} Buying from the kids section for a budget-friendly price</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight:
