Everyone agrees that when it comes to organizing your home, one of the most fun parts is choosing the right bins, baskets, and containers. There is debate about what is best, either clear or colored organizing products. It is one decision of many you will need to make in purchasing products for your space. Both have their benefits and the best choice really depends on your space, your goals, and how your brain works. Here is how to break it down so you can find the best product for your<\/em> organizing style.<\/p>\n Clear bins, drawers, and containers are the best choice for many people for several reasons.<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons: <\/b>Clear bins require more effort to look neat since everything inside is visible.\u00a0 It can seem visually overwhelming to see a cluttered group of items stored together.<\/p>\n Colored bins, baskets, and boxes can be both beautiful and functional.\u00a0 These are best for people who don\u2019t want to see everything<\/em> all the time.<\/p>\n Pros:<\/strong><\/p>\n Cons:<\/strong> Keep your containers in uniform shapes to make the best use of space. All different shapes add to the chaos in your home.<\/p>\n The answer can be both! You don\u2019t have to pick only one option since many homes benefit from a mix. Use clear bins where you need visibility. These are also useful in drawers and cabinets to create order.\u00a0 Use colored bins where you want to keep color coordinated. Typically, I use 3 -5 different bins throughout the home to be able to switch up organizing products as needed.\u00a0 I interchange these as needed and nest them for storage. There is no one perfect, best-organizing product. Use what you love where you love it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Everyone agrees that when it comes to organizing your home, one of the most fun parts is choosing the right bins, baskets, and containers.
