    We use the Lazy Susan when we play boardgames in my home. That way everyone can see the scrabble board the right way when it’s their turn. And all the pieces stay put (unless you spin it too fast) ;)

    Wine boxes from the liquor store have the interior cross section in them to protect wine bottles from hitting each other.....they are also the BEST for organizing flip flops and they are free! I spray painted mine and turned them on their side, stacked two and use various cubbies in the boxes to hold tennis shoes as well. Super organized and free. Just thought I’d add that but that’s the only thing out of your vid I could add to, everything else is just fab thinking! Brilliant ideas!

    I just don’t understand how this could get so many thumbs down. I’m a forever messy guy but trying to get better at organising so your videos have been very helpful. I can’t wait to go to Ikea and buy the shoe organisers and the extension rod. You have such great space-saving ideas! I also love how you focus on rentals. So many tools/devices/contraptions are only suitable if you own a home and your videos seem to be inclusive to the many people who have to rent. Looking forward to saving-space and having my spaces looking neater. Such a great series of videos!

    Olive oil should always be stored in a dark glass container. Sunlight changes the structure of the oil causing it to go bad.

    • @monal3650
      @monal3650 5 років тому +24

      yes, I agree, as they do say that! I had a small glass bottle (dark), which I decanted mine into! works well! CAN GET ON AMAZON!

    • @seemaprasad1383
      @seemaprasad1383 5 років тому +37

      Also pouring oil into another container gets it in touch with air. That makes the oil not safe to eat after a little while. Oil should never be decanted. Always buy small bottles of oil and use them up. Once opened the oil should be used up.

    • @beot-kkot
      @beot-kkot 5 років тому +101

      I'm sorry to burst your bubble, most people in Spain and Italy, which are the biggest producers of olive oil in the world, use clear bottles like that one to pour oil from a bigger container. (Many of us are lucky to enjoy real extra virgin olive oil, which is thick and dark and a little bitter on your throat. It's delicious!! Often times, we buy it directly from local traditional olive oil mills). In any case, we just make sure to keep the bottle away from direct sunlight, maybe in the cupboard. Also, we use olive oil every day, in almost every meal, so we go really fast through such a small bottle, and there is no chance for our oil to go bad. I think we know better. Cheers! :)

    • @piau1798
      @piau1798 4 роки тому +28

      Amalia you both are right. It depends on the quality of your olive oil. Most of the olive oil you can buy at stores is mixed with other seed oil (the "extra virgine" whatever print is often a scam, sadly), what makes it spoil easily, therefore the dark bottle is necessary. If you have high quality olive oil , a light bottle in a dark pantry will be totally fine :)

  • @dolsiemercado3140
    @dolsiemercado3140 3 роки тому +10

    That is a great idea for the cat food. I would use a glad freezer bag inside the container just in case an insect gets in. Dollar Tree has the clear hanging shoe vinyl rack so you can see your bathing suits easier. It only cost a dollar. You can also get bathroom shelf with the suction cup as a hanging hard plastic two tier. You can hang it over the shower door or rod. Also cost a dollar. For additional spect the suction cups shelves are nice as well.

  • @annatrevy3306
    @annatrevy3306 5 років тому +534

    Hi!! I'm Italian and I'm sorry, but that olive oil doesn't look good: it should be dark yellow, like liquid gold. Plus, direct light isn't good for oils, so you should keep it in a dark bottle or inside a cabin.
    Hope it was useful ❤

    • @lilrustee
      @lilrustee 5 років тому +33

      Anna Trevy yes! There is a reason most olive oils come in dark or green bottles. Even cheap olive oil can go bad much faster when exposed to light, and cheap isn’t really cheap anymore.

      Susanne Kramer olive oil purchased this way isn't actual olive oil. The olive oil I purchase is expensive and tastes so good that I can actually top my vanilla ice cream with a full tablespoon of my Lemon EVOO! (ABSOLUTELY SCRUMPTIOUS). . If you can do this, you've got authentic olive oil!

    Best shoe organizer: the billy bookcase if your shoe size is 9 or under. It fits over 80-90 pairs of shoes, you can add glass or full doors, leave it in the hallway or in the closet or in the room. Much better than the shoe organizer as you see everything, very neat!

  • @mariepeterson7250

    This was a very nice make over. It was not necessary to install the doors so that they would be proud of the piece, as long as the doors were flush with the front, the mouldings would be able to be attached and you would have fewer visible gaps. This was an inspired makeover, I am just telling you this in case you should ever want to do this again.

We have slots for different types of cables/chargers, batteries, extra mobilestuff, travel essentials, headsets, small speakers and so on.

    Also like your ideas for using it in different ways.

    I loved your idea using magazine storage containers for storing potatoes and towels. Would love to see your ideas in organizing and storing children's belongings, especially those large items like Thomas Trains and tracks, Paw Patrol tower and accessories galore, stuffed animals, , Hot wheels, puzzles, Books galore. How would you use a 8 foot closet to store children's clothes and toys such as were mentioned above. We would love to keep the floor space of a 12x12 room clear. I hate to throw out quality toys that are being used so your ideas are really needed today.

    I really liked a couple of your ideas. But good quality olive oil should be kept in a cool, dark place to maintain its quality. There is a reason it comes in a dark bottle. Another good way to organize your shoes and swim suits would be to give away 75% of them.

      My daughters and I hang them behind our bathroom doors to hold toiletries, skin care and hair care products. We don't have the ones from Ikea though, as ours are clear. Not as pleasing to the eye, but it's so practical being able to see everything! And they are better to look at then all the stuff they hold in a cluttered mess somewhere else! :)

    1st-allow limited amount of plates so make sure you are minimalist.
    2nd-Lazy Susan are amazing but the ikea one is good wood but very large.
    3rd-look for darker glass to keep your olive oil, it last fresh longer.
    4th-the hanging drawers are amazing.
    5th-hanging shoe organiser is uber versatile. Great pick.
    6th-magazine organiser made of paper is cheaper and also easier to recycle. The metal ones are good for wet places.
    7th-the suction cups are strong. They really work. Clean properly before installing.

    Leaving the olive oil out on the counter will make it go rancid after a while because of the sunlight. Leave it in a Cupboard.

      @michelesimpson4817 5 років тому +5

      Looking at these in the store, the way the Ikea 365 holders are built it looks to me like they will seal the items somewhat if not totally. Probably the cat treats wouldn’t be in there long enough to get stale anyway.

    • @namesalltaken159
      @namesalltaken159 4 роки тому

      It seemed like a good idea but I thought the same thing. It would probably go stale as its not sealed. My cat LOVES her food but won't go near it if it's stale, so effectively it would all go to waste.

    It doesn't count if your "after" photos have way less stuff than your "before" photos. The plate rack only held 6 plates, yet you had 8 or 9 plates in your cabinet. And your shower organizer only held 7 items, yet you had 12-15 items on the bench. You've got to do same numbers in order to be valid comparisons.

    • @mikishealy2849
      @mikishealy2849 5 років тому +81

      You can easily put more than one plate together. And if it were me with the shower organization i would be decluttering. She is just showing how you can use these items and i found it extremely helpful. I think yor comment was rude and unnecessary. Loved this video and ideas.

The ideal 4 the shoes is genius! Cking that out as well..also with the plates. I have a plate organizer but yes, i can not stand the sliding noise! Last but not least, the suction organizer will come in handy. Great items!! 💖💖💃

      This is not good olive oil, maybe it’s mixed with other oils. Color and texture is not good.
      It should be darker and not so transparent.
