1. What are your favorite storage containers like? I really love those big storage totes with lids for storing everything. They rock!
2. What seems to require more time and energy to store than it’s worth? Nothing. I’m a cheap pack rat and although I’m organized, I’ll take time to store and save kids clothes for hand me downs, kids artwork and more.
3. What unusual container are you storing something in? We have a now infamous big red bowl that is used for storage on the bar counter. It’s a gorgeous bowl and it is red, so it goes with my decor perfectly. Still, it’s storage.
4. What packaged product has a container you really like? This is a tough one because I like a lot of brand packaging. Off the top of my head I think of the classics. Victoria’s Secret, Tiffany’s, and those rad honey jars shaped like the infamous bear.
5. If you suddenly had some new storage space in your home, what would likely go there? I’d love a bigger pantry more than anything. I’d also love one more closet and one more bookcase. Given those three wants, I’m sure it’s obvious what I’d do with more space!

I love reusing boxes for storage, and we use anything pretty much, like old wipes boxes for crayons!
I like using glass jars, wooden boxes, etc. -
I reuse lots of stuff for storage!
I’m big on storing, and I use everything (to organize)…I’m also big on decluttering though, I like to throw things out, so it either gets tossed or organized.
I have a storage obsession!!
I need a better way to store all those kitchen gadgets you only use sometimes…
I love storage boxes and bins. The prettier the better and they add so much to the decor sometimes.
I have a gorgeous bowl that I store stuff in too! Fruit mostly and sometimes some miscellaneous items
Have you ever been to the container store? I could live there..
I haven’t but I certainly want to check it out now!!
I used to store everything but know I am a changed woman and love it. If we aren’t using it we get rid of it. My house is becoming a simpler less stressful home. I have been a de-cluttering fool this year and it has felt so empowering and “free”-ing to start chunking stuff.

If I could add more room to my house I would definitely add more closet space the rooms are big enough but I want a closet as big as my room LOL.
I like the big tub for cat food and a handled plastic bottle for dishing it out.
I used baskets for everything.
I like using small containers with lids to store my daughter’s small toys.
I love those big huge plastic storage bins.
I really need a pantry too! The storage in this house is awful!
My coffee containers get reused a lot.
I am pretty organized (okay, my daughter is two and has been organizing things for months!). I love peanut butter containers because they’re clear, (generally) unbreakable, just the right size to hold a bunch of stuff (buttons) and the kids CAN get them open.
