The Container Store For Smart Containers

I just have to say I go all agog when I get to attend The Container Store. (We don't have one here in Utah). I understand it's sad but true. I take advantage of containers all the time in every room. I can go so far as to say I love containers. They are great to store things in, contain things in, make things get magically organized and stay that way. With that said listed here are two containers It is suggested not buying: (I is going to be bold and say, don't buy them or you will soon be sorry).

The shoe rack that seem like they're made from PVC pipe, quite simply, two thin pipes at the top and two on the bottom. This is because: the shoes just won't remain on, I finally identified by putting them on backwards they will stay. Even then they need to be placed gingerly on the rod to allow them to stay. Everyone in my own home finds that to be always a bother. They only want to slap the shoes down and be done. Don't get me wrong-I like shoe racks of all kinds. I just found one in The Container Store catalog that holds 30 set of footwear and fits on the rear of a door. There are other over the entranceway racks that hold fewer, you will find free standing ones that work great once the shoes fit flat to them as well as some that hang from the rod within the closet. A boot rack of some sort is crucial because the ground of the closet stays tidy and you'll find your shoes when you want them.

The other Container Store I say not to get is definitely an accordion file. Now these look wonderful and you are able to sort and file by month, date and alphabetically but they're a pain. Why? Since they take two hands and the chin or shoulder to get anything in or out of them. That's a waste of time if you ask me and I don't like wrestling with my containers.

In the February/March 2008 issue of Shop Smart magazine they list four NOT SO HOT organizing tools that just increase the clutter.

1. Accordion files. Enough said.
2. Space bags. As an expert organizer I discover the heavy black (cheaper) plastic bags work as well. Just use your vacuum to suck out the air and then tie tight. It's tons easier when two are working together. I don't recommend the space bags either as I am aware several individuals who have used them and they have split open.
3. Containers with rims. "They stand out either at the top or bottom-or both-waste space. Opt for the sort that sit flush against one another." Having read that I visited the store to get more containers for my storage room. The size I wanted had rims that stuck out. I stood there arguing with myself thinking I had to have the people without rims. I bought the people with rims. (I didn't want to see another store). Now the space they go in they work great due to the type of shelf they go on.
4. Cardboard Boxes. "Can weaken or be damaged with normal use, but especially in garages and other potentially damp areas ".Some actually say on the box just how long things may be stored in them. But if you are in an environment with humidity definite use heavy plastic containers for most things. If you're storing for a short while and with no humidity, cardboard boxes are fine. Just remember to label what's in them.

Take into account the containers you is likely to be using, the point, the area and the length of time before selecting what is right or wrong for you. You can find various containers for our different wants and needs. Buy what you need and what you prefer, don't just buy to get as then it becomes clutter as opposed to containers.
