21 An Easy Shoe Storage and Closet Organization Idea

An Easy Shoe Storage and Closet Organization Idea: Okay, this isn’t so much of a hack as it is a re-purposing idea — but it’s pretty brilliant, so we’re sharing it!

22 Mount a power strip container underneath your desk to eliminate floor clutter

Mount a power strip container underneath your desk to eliminate floor clutter: I was tired of looking at the nasty tangle of power cables and power strip under my desk. So after much deliberation I decided to mount as much as I could to the bottom of the desk. In a nutshell I found a regular wire basket, attached it to the bottom of my desk, and placed the power strip inside facing down so the outlets were still accessible along with all the power bricks I could get in there. Below is a little before and after, I’m quite pleased with the results. Also, just for clarification, that big box under my desk is the subwoofer for my speakers. DISCLAIMER: Use these instructions at your own risk. There is a risk of fire, electric shock, injury, and damage to your hardware. Be really careful. (via getgreg)

35 Use small tension rods to the make the most of tiny, blank spaces

Use small tension rods to the make the most of tiny, blank spaces: I may have a bit of a scarf addiction. With practically nonexistent closet space, they were taking over the hooks on my bedroom door. Not only was it an eyesore, it was impossible to grab a coat or scarf without creating an avalanche of accessories. This weekend, I found a solution that was quick, inexpensive, and visually interesting. Check out the after, after the jump! (via Apartment Therapy)
