Use Clear Vinyl Shoe Holders for Storage

You can usually find plastic-pocket type "Shoe" holders at a dollar store. These are made from clear flexible vinyl pockets and are made to hang shoes on the wall or from a hanger in your closet. But you can also use them for many other things besides shoes: My daughter uses one in the bathroom to hold all of her hair-care supplies and liquid body-soaps. She hangs one on the back of her 5 year old daughter's bedroom door to hold all her hair ribbons, barrettes and scrunchies.

I hang one on the wall in my sewing/craft room to hold my jewelry making tools and crochet hooks. I hang several in the garage to store and separate my sockets, screws, bolts, S-hooks and other small tools. I bet they'd also be great hung on the back of a utility closet door, to store cleaning supplies. Or as a "Jewelry Organizer" to store bracelets, broaches and other jewelry!

They might also make a great "ribbon-on-a-roll" organizer and also make a handy place to store and catalog your knitting needles, or your sewing supplies like: elastic, velcro, thread and bias-tape.

I actually found one that I keep on the inside of a very narrow linen closet door called a hosery organizer (it even has two sides to it!). I keep bandages, aspirin, floss, and anything else that would otherwise clutter up a shelf (or two!) in the limited space I have in there.

I use one on the back of my daughters door for all her little stuffed animals and beanies.
