We are all organizing closets right now, right??

I am one of those people who literally can’t think straight if things feel out of order, and keeping things organized is one of the ways I stay sane in this house.

So today, I’m sharing my top Amazon organization finds that I can’t live without.

1. Kitchen Frying Pan Organizer

I love my frying pan organizer! It’s one of my favorite kitchen finds. It holds five frying pans and takes advantage of the vertical space in your cabinet.

You can screw it into the cabinet, but I haven’t attached mine, and it still functions properly. The best part is that this organizer holds my heavy-duty cast iron frying pans. I highly recommend this.

2. Over the Door Stuffed Animal Organizer

My daughter’s stuffed animals were taking over the room, and this over-the-door stuffed animal holder has been a lifesaver. It’s something that she can actually stick to.

These stretchy pockets hold a ton of stuffed animals. I keep them on the inside of the closet door so I can shut the door and keep the clutter hidden. Once we are out of the stuffed animal phase, she can use the pockets for something else. Here are some more stuffed animal storage ideas.

3. Lazy Susan

This lazy susan neatly organizes all my cooking oils, vinegar, and sauces in my cabinet. I like that it is divided, but you can also find them without the dividers.

But this has so many uses beyond the kitchen. You can use it to store bathroom toiletries, office supplies, and cleaning products. I would buy this again in a heartbeat.

4. Cleaning Tools Wall Organizer (Mop Grippers)

No more falling mops, clanging against the back of a door every time you open and close it, or taking up precious floor space in your closets. These mop grippers utilize vertical space (aka your wall) and can be hung with a sticky tab and a simple push. I have these to hold my swiffer and my favorite mop for cleaning baseboards (an Ocedar mop!).

While we are on the subject, don’t forget to grab this Dyson docking station organizer for your wall, too. All of this mess is hidden inside a laundry cabinet that I hacked by taking out the back on one side.

5. Clear Plastic Bins

These clear bins are incredibly useful and look stylish and modern. I use them mostly in the kitchen and pantry, where they keep rice and seasoning packets neat and tidy.

But they also keep cleaning supplies organized under the kitchen sink. We even keep one in the fridge to hold defrosting meat and fish. But the sky’s the limit on how to use these for organizing.

While technically not the same as a bin, these clear caddy bins are basically the same idea and stick to the inside of your cabinets. I can’t live without them. I’m currently using them to hold kid cup straws and lids, and I swear they have kept me from going insane. Is it just me, or do kid cup accessories seem to magically multiply?

6. Zipper Pocket Organizers

These zipper pouches have been a game-changer for our board game storage—pun intended. I store puzzles, card games, and board games in these pouches and then label them.

These are water-resistant and have clear mesh so you can see through them. They’re much better than using a ziplock bag, which will get messy.

7. Expanding File Folder

If you have kids, I highly recommend one of these expanding file folders. I attached mine to the inside of the cabinet with sticky tabs (because I hate ugly stuff out in the open).

There are several pockets, so you keep each child’s things separate and even have one for yourself and the mail! It’s easy to keep things organized this way, and it keeps our junk drawer free of paper clutter. It also avoids that dreaded mile pile on the kitchen counter.

8. Under the Bed Bins

While you can use these under-the-bed storage bins to hold pretty much anything (bed sheets/seasonal clothes), I love to use them for legos. Because kids want to throw crap in bins. Should I put that on a T-shirt? We will never be one of those color-coded Lego bin houses. It looks great, but that’s not sustainable in this house.

This under-the-bed Lego storage method is a quick and dirty way to keep things neat. The bins hold a ton of Legos, including those big flat pieces. My son can pull out his bins when he wants to play and just push them back under when he’s done.

You might be thinking: How do they find the right pieces to build things? I have no idea, but my son has never complained. Maybe digging around for Lego pieces is part of the fun? We have a bookcase in my son’s room for displaying the fancy Lego creations he wants to keep. The rest are taken apart and thrown in the Lego bin. Mic drop.

9. Belly Baskets

I know, it’s a basket, but I use them everywhere! In general, baskets are always a safe bet. They look good out in the open, add texture and warmth to a room, and are one of the easiest ways to keep things looking neat and tidy. Plus, these belly baskets are cheap.

Amazon is not the only place that sells them (and sometimes, they are not the cheapest). You can also buy these from IKEA, H&M, Walmart, and the Container Store, to name a few.

I keep them at our back door bench area to hold kid socks, gloves, and mittens. I got tired of kids whining and missing the bus because they forgot to bring down socks. Now they are right next to the shoes! So off you go, kids. We’ve been doing this for years, and it works like a charm.

10. Sticky Cord Organizers

I tried these sticky cord organizers on a whim (Instagram got me), and I’m pleasantly surprised how much I love them. They stick to the back of small appliances (like your air fryer and Instant Pot), and you can wind the cord around them and store them away neatly.

There are no more loose cords everywhere, and I haven’t had an issue with heat. These cord organizers stay put despite having used the appliances multiple times.

11. Kitchen Utensil Drawer Organizer

I love the way this utensil organizer is laid out. It makes putting away clean silverware from the dishwasher a breeze.

It’s easy to clean and fits nicely in my utensil drawer. I’ll never return to using the bamboo ones that seem to break easily.

12. Travel Packing Cubes

When I go visit my mom, I like to travel light. As in “book bag only” light.

These travel cubes can hold a lot, compress to save space, and even hold wet items or dirty laundry items separately. They make packing easier and more organized.

13. BagSmart Toiletry Organizer

I bring this organizer on every big trip. It holds everything from makeup, medicines, travel shampoo, hair accessories, and jewelry.

And the best part is you can unfold it and hang it from a hook when you get to where you’re going.

14. Spice Drawer Insert Organizer

I previously made a wooden spice rack, which worked well. However, I needed a larger space-saving solution as my spice collection grew. So, during Prime Day, I bought a set of spice drawer organizers, and I’m thrilled with the result! Since my drawers are a bit large for the organizers, I used quake putty to keep them from sliding around. Now, my spices look so much nicer!
