Kmart 2 Drawer Mesh Organiser

These two-drawer organisers are a hit with me and my place. They've allowed me to tidy up my kitchen under-sink cupboards, my bathroom vanity, my laundry and my pantry. They're a bit pricey, but they're stackable, are very roomy and I can put tons of things inside. They stand quite a lot of weight and are easily movable and modular.  In all honesty they save so much space and all my spaces look tidy and organised. 

 

The main downside is the rolling in-rolling out system, as the rails on which the baskets roll over are not shaped properly, so the baskets tend  to derail and get stuck and I have to manually lift them and then put them back on track. 

 

They're a bit pricey for the quality, but they work for so many spaces and are durable.

RISATORP Square Basket (White, 25x26x18 cm)

This is the first Risatorp basket that came to the market and the first one I bought. I have several already and they are a must at home. This basket looks small but accommodates tons of stuff, and it's easy to store anywhere. If you want to keep it outside,  looks great and stylish. I've given this basket different uses, from my office to my laundry, from my kitchen to my bedroom and currently sit in my bathroom.  The mesh body makes it light, and the bamboo handle makes carrying stuff inside a breeze. This is an Ikea classic  design, easily recognizable, and has has been imitated by big stores (Target and Kmart for example).

RISATORP Rectangular Basket (White, 27x42x23 cm)

I love the Risatorp baskets line, and this model is the most useful of the many models I have. This has proven to be the most versatile, the one with most capacity and the easiest one to store. I've moved this around my place many times and and I've given it different uses. As  storage for my laundry cleaning products on top of my washing machine. I've used it as shower "caddy" to put all my most used daily toiletries. I've used it as sockets and stockings 'drawer'. I've used it as stationary storage.  

This basket is great. It looks good in my studio/office, laundry, bathroom and kitchen. It hasn't broken or deteriorated despite the weight I've put inside. It's easy to move around thanks to the sturdy handles. It's easy to clean. The rectangular narrow shape makes it easy to use in small spaces, and it's easy to stack too. I've had it for several years and still looks as new. In one word, this is a must at home and I have a couple o them.

KNALLA B&W Bag (40x25x47cm, 47 L)

This is a very good looking XL weightless plastic storage bag, that I use to put away my winter lining and mattress covers. The bag can be used to store laundry, or to put your recycled plastics, or when packing towels and linen if you move houses.  I love the cool geometric B&W pattern. It can be washed by hand. Maximum load is 10 kg, which is remarkable for such a light bag. The zips are secure and are still intact after 2-3 years of use.

Bzocio Store 20-Bar Wooden Tie Hanger

This is a good quality hanger perfect for ties, belts or small silk-like female neckties. Average scarves won't fit as the slots are really tiny and I had difficulty positioning my thinnest scarves. If I had known this, I would have purchased something else. However, if you're really looking for a necktie/tie hanger this is perfect.
