We drink cranberry juice. To fill in the empty spaces and build up the bottom of our chest freezer, I freeze water in the 64 ounce cranberry juice containers. They lay flat and fit perfectly between the dividers. This helps to keep the freezer full.

How to Organize and Store Confetti - containers of confetti
How to Organize and Store ConfettiAs someone who enjoys completing craft projects, I have accumulated tons of confetti over the years. Up until recently, I stored it all in baggies. Then someone gave me a medium size utility box and I found that it was a perfect fit for sorting all of my confetti.

Organizing Recipes This Coming FallThis is more a bit of information, a reality check if you will, rather than a tip. But then, should this post prompt you to buy the gadget of which it speaks, it could, loosely, be called a tip.

Glass gems organized inside a clear plastic egg carton.
Egg Carton as an OrganizerIf you have a clear egg carton - you can use it as an organizer for your crafts. For me, I have my accent gems organized in here (even by color). I wrapped a rubber band around the egg carton, just in case someone else picks it up and doesn't realize it's a bit heavy.

Several mushroom tubs on a wall containing different craft supplies.
Mushroom Tubs for Organizing Craft SuppliesI love mushrooms. But almost the best things about them are how versatile their containers are. Durable and cute, they make a chaotic kitchen, office, or craft room much better.

A freezer that has a chip clip placed to wedge the door open.
Use a Wedge to Hold Freezer Door OpenWe gave up our ice maker years ago. I have used ice trays ever since. All these years, I have been quickly swinging my body around, with my hands full of stacked ice trays filled with water, in time to catch the freezer door with my shoulder before it closed. Just a few minutes ago, the thought occurred to me that a wedge might work to hold that door open.

Date labels written on small post-it notes.
Label Purchase Dates on Personal/Beauty Care ItemsIn my free time, I enjoy to coupon or find deals for items that my family and I use, or items that I could gift. My little stockpile is building up so now, I label each item with the date I purchased so I know which one to grab first (the older date).

Organizing Food When MovingWhen I was getting ready to move, I did not want to get rid of all the food in my cabinets. But food items can be heavy and breakable. So I needed to come up with an idea that would keep my things together and to also contain anything that might break.
