This week’s ‘Works For Me Wednesday’ is a themed edition.
Participants are asked to share an Organization tip.
I am the most organized person I know.
Well, maybe with the exception being my sweet mother-in-law. She and I are two peas in a pod when it comes to organization and our desire for all things to be in freaky, neat, color coded, alphabetical, symmetrical, labeled order.
What can I say? I am one quirky gal!
That’s not to say, I am always organzied. That simply means, I like to be organized. My world is a brighter place when everything is in its place and there’s a place for everything.
With that in mind, you can imagine how my crazy meter exploded everytime I opened my kitchen cabinet to find this hot mess.
This hot mess makes me crazy!
Then, when I was aimlessly walking around SAMS last week pigging out on 427 samples, I ran onto these.
I immediately pictured a nice, tidy storage conatiner cabinet. I sighed and smiled and grabbed the box and threw the suckers in my buggy.
And lookie here….
The bowls and the lids snap together and nest inside of one another. No more rummaging through that container looking for a lid that fits. And that makes me all kinds of happy!
Rubbermaid Easy Find Set.
They work for me!

LOL…I am the same way…I LIKE to be organized, but that doesn’t mean I always am. And I’ve got that *exact same* set of Rubbermaid from Sam’s! They rock!

That makes me happy…really, it put me in my happy place just to look at it. I guess I won’t be taking home leftovers from your house. There is no way you’ll let those puppies out of your sight.
I have a set very similar to that and it does make finding the lids so much easier!

I love these! Even the veggie storing ones lock with these, and that can make a huge difference in storability!

My mom bought those and LOVES them! I can’t justify the expense right at this moment since my other rubbermaid boxes are perfectly okay still… but when they need to be replaced I’m going to be getting these!

Ooooohhhh….I’m so envious! Those containers look pretty awesome, and it looks like none of them are round. I hate round containers…they just seem like a bad use of space to me. I love being organized, but I’m terrible at doing it!

Julie,
The first picture of your cabinet looks JUST LIKE MINE! Have you been to my house secretly photographing my cabinets?
