When I went to Vidcon this year, I stayed with Charlie’s Aunt Karen. She has such an organized home (as you will soon see), and in an effort to equip you with ideas to get organized, I wanted to share this footage with you! It’s fun to see real systems that work in a real house: I definitely learned a thing or two. While some of these ideas are very budget friendly, some are high-end, too. Below I’ve given you budget friendly options if you are looking to achieve the same look. Custom organizing on a realistic budget.
- PULL-OUT CUSTOM CABINETS: Under $40 per shelf option
(If you need a super budget friendly option also try using dish wash bins from the dollar store as drawers!) - KNIFE BLOCK FOR DRAWER: $20 option
- DOUBLE UTENSIL DRAWER (if you really need the extra space would be worth it!):
$30 option
Otherwise, for a super budget friendly option get junk drawer organizers at the dollar tree and if room allows, stack them - PLATTER DIVIDERS FOR CABINET: Under $20
- DRAWER DIVIDERS: $20 option
- CANVAS BINS: Dollar Tree (seasonal)
- RIBBON/WRAPPING BOX: $15 option
- PLASTIC DRAWERS FOR TOYS: Available in-store at Target and Walmart
- OVER THE DOOR ORGANIZER: Under $10
- SMALL TOOL ORGANIZER: $15 option
- FREE-STANDING GARAGE ORGANIZER Under $40
I hope you enjoyed!

I just LOVE all of your organizing ideas. And I need to remember to comment on every single one. This one was especially great because, as you say, it is being USED in a regular home on a regular basis.
Thanks!
I’m so glad you enjoyed, JB! 🙂 Thank you for taking the time to comment and have a great rest of the week!
I need an Aunt Karen at my place!
Random question, my husband and I were out on a walk, passing our neighborhood school and talking about teachers. I mentioned you teach and we wondered what grade and what you teach. My other question is how do you do that from a cart????
We just put our house up for sale and plan to live in a house on wheels or a house without a basement and about 800 sq. ft.. This means that any ideas to find storage space and how to maximize this space will be crucial to living well and comfortably.
Your Aunt Karen has obviously viewed each space in detail and put good thoughts into practice. So, hey Aunt Karen! Thank you for the inspiration! And thank you Kathryn for sharing!
Thanks, Sheila! Glad you enjoyed and good luck with your move 🙂
