29 Organizers For Your Closets And Cabinets
Clear, hardshell pouches perfect for cosmetics, toys, and craft supplies. You can stack them or throw 'em in a bag for easy traveling. They're basically go-bags, but for colored pencils and makeup. A two-tier desk hutch with plenty of shelf space and a metal grid you can hang notes, headphones, tape, and other necessities on. With all the important stuff neatly organized, there will be even more room for cute desk decor. An adjustable hanging rod that hangs onto the one in your closet so you can double your closet space. You'll finally have room for the millions of baby outfits your in-laws keep buying. A stackable shelf to help you utilize more space in your cabinets, bathroom, bedroom closet, or office. You can let them overlap or even stack them on top of each other, depending on your needs. Rainbow nesting storage containers that will make a hue-ge difference in your cabinet space. No more free-floating containers and mysterious lids! A hanging closet-organizer to neatly stow items like purses, scarves, ties, and other odds and ends that might be cluttering your bedroom. Knowing exactly where your favorite scarf is at all times? Truly priceless. A set of magnetic spice jar dispensers if you have spices falling out of cabinets, clogging up your counter, and coming out your ears. These can sit on your stove or stick to your fridge, meaning — oh my god — there's room to buy more spices! Game board storage cases so you can ditch the cardboard boxes in favor of slim, easy-to-stack organizers. The transparent plastic and built-in handle make it easy to take multiple games while traveling — now you can pack Codenames *and* Monopoly. A pair of transparent dividers bringing a level of order previously never seen in your closet. Your sweaters, bags, towels, and sheets can all have their designated areas. No more looking for a hand towel and only finding pillowcases. Please tell me this isn't just a me problem. A set of storage bags to make proper use out of your under-bed space. They're ideal for out-of-season clothing, books, extra shoes, or anything else you don't need now but might need soonish. An under-cabinet drawer that'll bring order to whatever cabinet you've been avoiding lately. Grabbing a sponge will now be a two-second activity instead of a 15-minute scavenger hunt. A set of airtight food storage containers so you can ditch all the ripped cardboard and leaky flour bags you have in the cabinet right now. Speaking as someone who recently dealt with a pantry moth problem, airtight storage is the way to go. A wallet holder that hooks under your closet shelf and provides a structured place for your favorite pouches to live. While this is made for wallets, there's no need to limit yourself! Use it for snacks, stationery, accessories, sandwich bag boxes, etc. A bamboo cabinet in two styles (counter and wall mount) more than happy to obscure your kitchen clutter from prying eyes. The fluted glass is just opaque enough to hide your collection of mason jar tops and mostly forgotten kitchen tools. A tea bag organizer for avid tea drinkers who are sick of getting hit with an avalanche of boxes every time they open their cupboard. This slim device can fit up to 120 standard-sized bags. Suction cup knobs kind enough to give you some extra hanging space for towels, loofahs, and scalp massagers. They're waterproof and can hold up to 15 pounds, so even your massive oversize robe can have a place to hang. A thin rolling shelf to slip in that weird space between your fridge and cabinets. Or between your laundry machine and the wall. Or in the garage next to your car. Wherever you have a tiny sliver of unused space for organizing. A silverware sorter that takes up very little space in your drawer but can fit up to 24 pieces of cutlery. With the extra space, the possibilities are endless. Maybe it's time for a novelty monstera slotted spoon? An over-the-cabinet-door holder so you can fit even more cooking sheets, cutting boards, and other flat kitchen items in your kitchen. An interlocking storage organization set that lets you harness the power of CUBES. Assemble them in whatever grid works best for your closet. The set comes with a little rubber mallet so you can feel like Bob the Builder while creating your ideal storage unit. A plastic bag dispenser that neatly fits in your drawer so you don't have to battle with five crushed cardboard boxes. You can store this horizontally in a drawer or get fancy and mount it vertically in a cabinet. Clear drawer organizers to turn your junk drawer into just a normal drawer where you actually find stuff. Oh, you need a rubber band? Here you go. A bottle opener? No problem. A four-tier stair organizer perfect for perfume bottles, figurines, snow globes, or whatever else is currently in need of a permanent home. Whatever you display, it'll look a lot better like this than strewn across your dresser. A set of Command spray bottle hangers to stick to the inside of a cabinet door for easy storage, so you can grab the multi-cleaner *the second* you hear food hit the floor. Clear, stackable drawers providing a transparent organization system that lets you find things way faster and with far fewer curses. Also, the lucite just looks really cool. *resists urge to decorate the inside with window clings* An elaborate jewelry organizer with rotating branches so you can flip through your extensive necklace collection like a beautiful book. The glammed-out tree sticks to the wall with included Command strips and comes with 120 holes for at least a good chunk of your earring collection. A set of Shoe Slotz that lets you stack shoes on top of each other, meaning you can DOUBLE your storage space. In the words of Kelly, let's get some shoes. An expanding file folder you can fill with up to 200 pieces of paper and free up soo much desk space. Receipts, restaurant menus, love letters — all this and more can be properly stored. A hanger organizer to solve your horrible hanger-nest problem you've been suffering through in silence all these years. It holds up to 50 hangers so you can finally find one instead of draping your clothes over the pole and hoping for the best.

Saudi Arabia's Riyadh Gets Its Own Monopoly Board
There's a new Monopoly board coming to market – and it's got all the happening places in Riyadh, the Saudi metropolis. The 'Riyadh Monopoly' will be up at stores in September after being announced on June 26 at the King Abdullah Financial District Conference Centre. The board is 'designed to reflect Riyadh's rich culture, notable landmarks and dynamic spirit'. Riyadh is going through a major transformation, including the creation of a swanky Downtown. In late 2019, the Dubai version of the Monopoly board was launched. (Monopoly is owned by the toy company Hasbro.) 'Riyadh Monopoly reflects our goal of making big, strategic projects accessible and engaging to all ages,' Mazroua Al-Mazroua, Chief Marketing and Experience Officer, at King Abdullah Financial District Development and Management Company. 'As the leading destination for international and local businesses in Saudi Arabia, we are creating new opportunities for the next generation to thrive. 'We want the new generation to recognize the names and places shaping their future. What better way than through play?' Over half of Riyadh's residents are under 20 years. 'Riyadh Monopoly is crafted to unite generations in friendly rivalry, whether strategizing over historic streets or modern skyscrapers,' said a statement. The Monopoly board game has been in existence for 90 years and has sold over 275 million. It has the Guinness World Record as the 'best-selling board game in history'. 'In a celebration of iconic landmarks and modern identity, the Riyadh Monopoly board itself is a cultural artefact,' said Sharif Hamad bin Majed Alowaishiq, Founder & Chairman of Saudi Youth Society. And the new board is about 'mapping the capital's evolution from historic quarters to striking skyscrapers, world-class districts, and new urban infrastructure and facilities'.
