I love to use empty shoe boxes for all kinds of storage. They are a perfect little size, fairly sturdy, and a great way to recycle! I mainly use them to help organize my kid’s bedroom drawers. Socks, underpants, and even dance clothes all fit perfectly inside these handy dandy shoe boxes.

They just make everything a little bit more organized, rather than tossing the socks in randomly.

What recycled type items are you using to help organize your home?
