How to Get the (Organized!) Look

1. One Type of Coat Hanger to Rule Them AllUltra-thin, ultra-affordable hangers are the perfect way to store your everyday essentials or your favourite LBD. One uniform style of hanger makes things look more streamlined and chic.

3. A Well Designed Umbrella Stand Goes a Long WayWho says umbrella stands have to be utilitarian and boring?

5. Elevate the DishesBlessed with a cavernous kitchen cupboard? This sturdy dish stand is designed to organize your shelves and make the most of that vertical space—and they’ve sturdy enough to hold heavy plates, glasses and pantry essentials. Metal mesh expandable cabinet shelves, $25, bedbathandbeyond.ca
