Container store laundry room organization11/22/2023 ![]() I purchased it on Amazon and you can find it “here”. I like this hook because it is long enough to keep moisture away from the door if I hang dry a shirt. I use it to hang-dry items or to hang shirts while I fold the rest of the laundry so that they don’t wrinkle. I promise I am almost done but I have one more tip! I place a valet hook on the outside of the door. The machines are so close together that the baskets stay in place. I use foldable laundry baskets and I just place them in between the washer and dryer. The area above is large but not easy to access so these baskets hold: gallons of water for hurricane preparedness, empty containers that I have for future projects (blame Pinterest), and one of them is empty just in case I need it for something around the house. I also have a hook that holds a basket full of “clean-and-single-and-looking-for-a-mate” socks.Īt the very top I have three large laundry baskets. Above it I have a little pail that I throw pocket change into. In the very side, up against the wall (where it’s hardly visible because it is below the washing machine) I have a tiny garbage can where I throw all the dryer lint. I really don’t have a place for them in the kitchen and my laundry closet is close to the kitchen, so it works for me. I hooked this little basket to the back of the wire rack and I keep all my new sponges in there. Since I always purchase the same brand of cleaners I can just keep using the same labeled nozzle. That way I know what bottle I am pulling out. TIP: Since the second basket is not at eye-level, I decided to label the spray nozzles with the contents of the bottle. One holds miscellaneous laundry related products… On the other side of the laundry room I have two large wire baskets (from Target). I like that these bins are long and I can just pull them out and easily get what is in the very back. Next to the small bins, I have all my cleaning products separated by brand or function. In the first shelf I have these containers that I purchased at Walmart and they hold all the cleaning rags. Shaklee and Method products are my favorite since my goal is to slowly-but-surely go green in terms of nutrition and home care. Right above is a small shelf that holds my detergent and fabric softener. They seem to get uglier with every wash so I wanted them hidden, yet easily accessible since they get used daily. ![]() Next to it is the LAUNDRY tin, which actually hides all those ugly looking floor rags that we all have. I added the chalkboard label to the outside and wrote the contents in chalk. The jar is intended for kitchen use but I love how it looks in here and it adds charm to the space. ![]() I purchased the little mint jar from and it holds oxy powder. On top of the dryer I have stain removal powder, a Martha Stewart book that shows you how to clean anything and everything, a white tin that contains towels, and a little IKEA plant for no purpose other than cuteness. I like to leave some room on top of the washer and dryer to fold items right as they come out of the dryer. Since its a closet in a small hallway, I had to take pictures in segments so that I can share with you what I keep in there. My goal is to make it look good so that doing laundry doesn’t feel like such a chore, but the closet is definitely packed! I have so many things in there and it can be a challenge to make it look uber neat. My excuse: I don’t have a laundry room, I have a laundry closet. As organized as I am, I can never get my laundry closet to look that neat and if that little girl saw all the stuff I pack in my closet…she would surely keep running…in the opposite direction. In those adds, all that is stored in the laundry room is a lonely bottle of detergent and two perfectly folded white towels. I’m not sure if it’s the fresh white towels, the clean scented sheets, or the little girl running through the wheat field with her hair flowing. ![]() I love looking at organized laundry rooms in magazines and commercials. ![]()
