Whether it’s your stress-reducing practice of choice or the first thing you’re likely to procrastinate on, organization is necessary if you want to make use of your space — no matter how spacious or cramped your living quarters are.
Even if it’s not about saving space, having a reliable organizational system allows you a practical, working knowledge of where all the things you need and like are so they can be found when you want them at home.
I am by no means the most naturally organized person I know, which my friends and family would be happy to tell anyone, so I spend a lot of time thinking about ways to cut corners on organization and still reap the benefits of an orderly life.
Products like the ones below are a few that really help — I don’t have to depend on my own vigorous cleaning pattern, I can just rely on these guys doing their jobs and keeping my counter, sower, and bedroom space optimized and decluttered, so I can actually enjoy myself when I’m home and find the things I need, when I need them.
Below are 13 products that will help you be and stay organized, without the energy of perpetual attention.
An outlet shelf that will mount speakers and minimize cord visibility.
If you're sick of taping cords or having things look less streamlined than possible, grab one of these for a cheap and easy fix. It's perfect for Alexa-enabled devices, but it'll work for anything under 10 lbs.

A mounted desk with tons of storage.
Your desk is one spot that seems to accumulate debris on its own will. Do yourself a huge favor and grab this floating desk at a discount — you'll have access to the space below it still and tons of leveraged storage space for knickknacks or work papers.
Prepac Wall Mounted Floating Desk with Storage, $129
A hanging pot rack for your most-used pots and pans.
Make some room in your kitchen cabinets by actually taking advantage of all the dead space above you. Just by transferring your most-used pots and pans to a hanging rack you'll save yourself a lot of wiggle room. Plus, it looks really nice.
