Give the Gift of Organization

The annual gift-giving season is upon us and, if you’re like me, you’re racking your brain to choose the perfect gift for everyone on your list. Being an organization lover myself, I put together a list of gift ideas centered on organization. 

Whether you’re buying for someone who is highly organized already or someone who may need a little help in the organizing department, any of these items would make great gifts. Here they are in no particular order:

1. File Folder Organizer

Things are not only what they seem! I actually picked up one of these at a garage sale this past summer and I love it. While its original intent is to keep file folders organized, it has many other uses. I am currently using mine to store baking sheets in a cupboard. It keeps them separated and easy to access. No more digging through a horizontal pile of baking sheets looking for the one you need! It could also be used to store pot lids, Tupperware lids, or cutting boards. The list is endless!

2. Label Maker

A label maker is an organizer’s best friend. Use it to label shelves, storage totes, file folders, wires, cables, clothing, uniforms, food storage containers, etc. The laminated tapes that this model uses can be used in hot and cold environments as well as indoors or outdoors.

3. Gift Wrap Station

I found this item at The Container Store and I fell in love. Currently, my gift wrapping station consists of a tote box filled with gift bags, ribbons, tissue paper, and wrapping paper most of which is crinkled and bent from such poor storage. It’s a pain to find anything and I often end up buying unnecessary items because the item I’m looking for is buried in the tote. This portable gift wrap station stands up on its own when in use so you can easily find everything you’re looking for. And when you’re finished, it hangs neatly in a closet until next time. Worth every penny I’d say!

4. Oxo Good Grips POP Food Storage Containers

I love, love, love these containers. They are BPA free and provide an airtight seal. They stack nicely and come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They are an exceptional item for organizing a pantry. My set currently holds our coffee, pasta, dog treats, and baking supplies like flour and sugar. The only problem I have with them is that I don’t have enough! They are not dishwasher safe, but if you’re using them to store pantry staples, they don’t need to be washed very often.

5. Plastic Bag Holder

These days, reusable bags are the way to go. But sometimes you end up with a slew of those plastic bags flying around your closet any way. This handy wall mount bag holder corrals all those bags and allows easy access when you need to recycle or reuse one. Genius!

6. Shoe Organizer

What lovely lady doesn’t need a way to organize all her shoes?! This model hangs over the door so there is no need to drill holes in a wall or closet door. Have shoe storage under control? This handy organizer can be used to store cleaning supplies, toys, stuffed animals, jewelry, scarves and other accessories, pantry items, etc. I think I’d like four please!

7. Measuring Cups and Spoon

How cute is this? Better yet, how functional is this?! This measuring cup and spoon set not only eliminates the need for a large amount of storage space but also ensures you won’t lose that pesky little ¼ teaspoon. The measuring cups all fit together into the shape of one mug and the measuring spoon has all your measurements on one spoon! Two thumbs up for this gift!

8. Custom Drawer Organizer

I know what you’re thinking… Who wants a drawer organizer for Christmas? This deluxe drawer organizer is the exception. The kit comes with a non-slip base mat that you can cut to fit any drawer. Then you get “divitz” which keep utensils, cords, pens, etc in their place. It comes in six different colors and will revolutionize the way you organize those drawers.

9. Holiday Greeting Tree

About this time, those wonderful holiday greeting cards start showing up in the mailbox. Some are traditional cards with beautiful pictures and well wishes and others are shiny new photos of family and friends. Either way, those beauties shouldn’t end up piled on a shelf somewhere. After all, how can you enjoy them day after day when they’re scattered or stacked? This holiday greeting tree solves that problem. Keep your cards on display for as long as you like without them getting in your way or lost in the holiday shuffle.

10. Owl Bin

Last, but certainly not least, especially in the cute department, is this adorable owl bin from The Container Store. Is there a cuter way to store toys in the play room or corral them at Grandma’s house? It could hold laundry, or Legos, or building blocks. It could be used in a craft room to hold fabrics or books. There is no limit to this cuteness. It also comes in a raccoon, elephant, and monkey version.
