An often forgotten about space for storage is the back of doors.  The Elfa Door Rack takes advantage of that space with adjustable bins and overdoor hooks (no tools required!).  This product is  an easy addition to any kitchen, pantry or utilitiy room.

I suggested this product to a client with a large family.  As efficient use of space is critical when accomodating many people, it was necessary to store items where they will be used.  This recommendation actually came to be after I learned that my client was storing her Swiffer sweeper in one location, and the cleaning pads in another.  I know I’d be less inclined to clean if the extra steps to assemble my cleaning tool had to take place before cleaning (call me lazy, but it’s the truth!).  When evaluating where the cleaning supplies were located, it became clear that other items such as dietary supplements and over the counter medications needed to be relocated.  Small items such as medication bottles and cleanign supplies fit perfectly on the door rack.  This system also enabled us to keep the items close to the kitchen where they were previously.

Don’t forget the back of your doors.  They are a hidden gem!
