Amazon Items for Home Organization

Everyone knows the benefits of living in an organized home. You spend less time and have less frustration searching for items you need.

You don’t have to move piles of things from one place to another or try to make them fit in a space far too small for them. Your home looks better–no one ever saw a cluttered, disorganized house on a magazine cover!

And, perhaps most importantly, you free up your own mental space to do the things you love. An organized home is the starting place that leads to an organized life.

But when you look at your space, it can be hard to know where to start to get it organized. We’ve got you covered.

We’ve curated a list of some of the best organizational tools and items on Amazon–and in a few other places as well. You can have an organized home! Read on to learn how.

Home Organization Steps

Before you jump in and spend a bunch of money buying organizers you should do a little preparation first. 

Step One: Declutter

Before you start your home organization , remove the things you don’t need. Why spend time trying to figure out the best way to organize twenty-five sweaters when you only need eight? Or find the space to store two sets of dishes when you never use one set and don’t have a particular attachment to it? 

Step Two: Clean

Now that your space is pared down, give it a good cleaning. Wipe out cabinets and drawers, dust and vacuum. Starting with a clean house will help you enjoy the process even more, as well as give you the best end result: a tidy, clean, organized space.

Step Three: See What You Need

Organizational solutions are everywhere, and we’re going to help you find the best ones. Don’t worry about locating the perfectly sized basket or spice rack yet. At this point, just make a list of the types of things you need: a basket to hold hand towels, a storage solution for food storage containers, etc. If you need some ideas for kitchen organization specifically, check out this blog.

Step Four: Start Shopping

Now that you know what you need, the fun begins. Start shopping for the perfect organizational solutions for the spaces and items you identified. We have a great list of twelve (plus!) Amazon items that will make your organizing easier than ever.

If you spend some time decluttering, you’ll see what you do need to organize: the items you choose to keep. Donate or sell the rest and enjoy the extra space in your home. It will be so much easier to organize your home after you’ve gotten rid of the excess.

Decluttering first also lets you see what hot spots you have–areas that really aren’t working well and need some extra thought and attention. Make a list of your hot spots and get ready to move on to step two.

Home Organization Finds on Amazon

We’ve been helping people in Tallahassee organize their kitchens, baths and homes for more than a decade. Here are some of our favorite organizers that can be found on Amazon. 

Urban Deco Acrylic Spice Rack Wall Mount

This sturdy, clear spice rack is minimalistic and easy to use. It mounts directly onto the wall with screws (provided) or onto the fridge side with suction cups. Use it for spices in the kitchen or in the bathroom for smaller toiletries. If you’d rather keep your spices in a drawer, this YouCopia Spice Liner adjustable spice drawer liner keeps them from rolling around. Or if you prefer a stair-step design, try this Vaehold Spice Rack Organizer.

Bambüsi Adjustable Bamboo Drawer Dividers

Drawer dividers are a must for keeping your kitchen drawers, dresser drawers, and bathroom vanity drawers neat and organized. These beautiful dividers can adapt to fit most drawers–no more poorly-sized dividers. Use these bamboo dividers to make the most of every inch of your drawer space. If you like the idea of drawer dividers but prefer clear acrylic over bamboo, check out these iDesign Plastic Adjustable Deep Drawer Dividers.

1. Nadz Storage Ziploc Bag Organizer

Keep your food storage bags neat and tidy with this wooden organizer. It fits in most drawers or can hang on the pantry wall, and dispenses bags easily. It has space for gallon, quart, sandwich, and snack bags. Pair it with this YouCopia StoraRoll drawer food wrap dispenser.

Pot Rack Organizer

Pots and pans–and their lids–take up a lot of cabinet real estate. This adjustable organizer keeps them all neatly in line. The rubber-coated iron keeps your pots from being scratched but is strong enough to hold even heavy ones in place. You can set it on your countertop or in a cabinet and can use it as two separate racks or one longer one.

Lifewit Stackable Water Bottle Organizer

Sometimes it seems like water bottles and travel coffee mugs multiply in the cabinet! Keep them corralled and easy to find with this stackable organizer. You can even keep it in your fridge if you want reusable, ready-to-go water bottles filled and waiting. Each clear plastic shelf holds four water bottles; you can stack as many shelves as you have space for. They come in sets of two shelves.

mDesign Wooden Stackable Storage Shelf

Sometimes you have the storage space you need–you just can’t access it. With these wooden shelves, you can double your cabinet space by stacking items under and on top of them. Use them in kitchen or bathroom cabinets, pantry shelves, the laundry room–anywhere you need to maximize storage space. They’re attractive and sturdy, made of bamboo.

Yumkfoi Bamboo Can Rack Organizer

Another stackable organizer, this one holds cans on their sides, for visibility and easy access. It even comes with labels so you can organize it further. Keep the can rack in your pantry or in the fridge holding soda cans. The tilted design causes the cans to roll toward the front.

Pomeat 10-Pack Fridge Organizer

When the fridge is clean and organized, the whole kitchen feels better. Try this organizer to keep your fridge looking great. It’s stackable, BPA-free, and has a drainage system to keep produce fresh. This OXO Good Grips GreenSaver Produce Keeper is another helpful tool for keeping your food fresh and your fridge tidy, as is this Egg Holder.

Storage Works Wicker Baskets

Great for closet shelves, under the bed, or in the bathroom, these baskets look good enough to have out and visible but will store whatever you need and keep it from view. Use them for scarves and belts, out-of-season gear like winter gloves, toiletries, extra toilet paper– or anything you want.

NAC HOOH Drawer Organizers

Similarly, these fabric drawer organizers will allow you to keep your smaller items in place and easy to access. They’re great for dressers–yours or your kids’. You could get used to being able to see everything you need in your drawers without having to dig and hunt.

MyGift Modern Wall-Mounted Sunglasses Rack

If you’re always misplacing your sunglasses, consider hanging one of these racks near your door or in your bedroom. If you’d rather use counter space, this stackable version is a great one. Corral your glasses and other little extras in one place, ready to go.

Spacekeeper Under Sink Organizer

Make the most of underused storage space in your bathroom by using these pull-out shelves under the sink. They’re great for storing cleaning products, extra bottles of shampoo, and the like. You can also use them under the kitchen sink. These drawers are similar, but you could also use them on the counters or on your dresser.

Beyond Amazon for Home Organization

Amazon isn’t the only place to shop for great home organization items. If you like to support smaller, women-owned businesses, consider Salt by Sabrina. They offer custom acrylic drawer inserts that are specific to your drawers, and deep enough that not an inch of space is wasted. They also sell beautiful baskets and boxes that look great on bookshelves, by the couch with blankets, and more. And their home accessories are well-made, minimalistic, and lovely.

We always love Blum drawer systems and install them in many of our kitchen remodels. These custom drawer dividers are made of stainless steel and nylon for a modern, industrial look. They are dishwasher-safe, flexible, and come with a lifetime guarantee.

Hardware Resources sells a beautiful felt-lined jewelry organizer drawer. It comes in two finishes (black or gray) and it has enough compartments to keep your jewelry safe and organized. The felt is soft and gentle to keep your pieces from being scratched and helps prevent tarnishing.

For another custom drawer perfect for the coffee aficionado, check out Hardware Resources’ double coffee drawer. The top tier holds coffee pods and the bottom has space for sugar packets, tea bags, and more. It’s perfect for a coffee bar area and makes it easy for everyone to serve themselves the perfect cup in the morning. 

If Organizing Isn’t Enough

With a little looking, you can find an organizational solution for any of the issues you run into in your home.

But sometimes organizing alone doesn’t result in the perfect, peaceful, decluttered house of your dreams. If you’re always running out of storage space, your counter space is lacking, or your house just feels too small even after you organize it, it might be time for a remodel.

Consider remodeling your kitchen, bathrooms, closets, bedroom–whatever space isn’t working for you and your family.
