there’s no need to get all hung up about your storage dilemmas when the answer is quite literally, right in front of you. i am all about storing some of my signature wares in plain sight, and i even like the look – a lot! what others might consider eyesores, i consider putting just a bit of your personality and personal style on display. i hang all my favorite mesh and rattan shopping totes, for instance, and not only are they at the ready, i think they look rather swell. so if you’re short on storage space, you might consider going vertical, and hanging your favorite bits and bobs right out in front of everyone! there are so many creative looking hooks, pegs and racks of all kinds nowadays, the possibilities are endless — from vintage finds to DIY tree branches, the idea is to keep your options open. here are a few ideas to get you started, and out of the closet!

We live in a downtown apartment with high ceilings but not much square footage. My ‘real estate’ is vertical. Lots of shelves and double-purpose storage.
I loved these suggestions as well and will be pinning many of them. Thank you for your constant inspiration!
I love this post. Not only handy, but a fun rack gives a home such depth and movement. Lovely to look at.
