Describe an organizing product, resource, book, video, or other solution that you bought but never used—at least not for the purpose for which you purchased it.Cutlery trays--too short for serving spoons & pancake turners. Used them elsewhere.
For which collections or categories of stuff do you find it difficult to obtain or employ organizing and storage solutions, and why?FABRIC! I own too much yardage to display on the wall of shelves. Keeping them in storage totes prevents seeing them & being inspired to use it. I keep making/using some, and sorting out "duds" to donate. Not there yet.
What’s your personal favorite inexpensive or free organizing solution? We’d love to hear about furniture, shipping boxes, food containers, craft supplies, or other unlikely items that you’ve ingeniously repurposed to hold your stuff.Those cutlery trays mentioned in "orphan" section. Now, I use them in desk drawer for pens, rulers, stamps, etc. Junk drawer tray is for batteries, flashlights, votive candles, and matches for emergencies.
