I absolutely hate when the the bottom of the soap dish is covered with a gooey, unpleasant layer of … well, soap. These funky and great looking Bubble Soap Dishes should solve the problem (and brighten up my bathroom at the same time.)

Mom’s Must Haves: Pefectly Sized Travel Jewelry Case

I’ve just come back from a business trip where I wished I’d brought a few more pieces of jewelry with me. I like wearing earrings and funky rings but I didn’t have a great way to carry them with me, so just brought two in a plastic bag. This jewelry case has multiple compartments so your necklaces won’t get tangled up with the earrings and it’s still small enough for travel.

I am on a constant fight with clutter in our kitchen. Most random pieces of paper are now under control thanks to a huge cork board we’ve recently put up but random pens, pencils, scissors, and pins continue to haunt me. I like this funky Tea Cup Hook idea, especially for the kitchen area, as a way to get ahead of the clutter.

Coghlan’s flint striker is a must-have for anyone reorganizing and restocking their family’s emergency kit. This low-tech gadget allows you to light a fire without matches (Read the review at Gear Diary for a great demonstration of how to use it). As long as your tinder is dry, you can use the rod and striker to start a fire even in wet conditions, and it lasts for years.

$4.98 at Pine Creek Outdoors (via Amazon).

(Wondering what else your emergency kit should have? Here’s a handy checklist for you to print and take to the store.)

Organized Living: Keep It Together Mini Charging Station

Categories: Organized Living

No Comments

We’ve tried all sorts of solutions at home to keep our electronics (phone, iPod, Blackberry) organized and charged and I’m still not 100% happy with the result. Specific issue: I often forget my cell phone in the charging station that is in our home office and would love to have it closer to the door. This Mini Charging Station is portable and you can attach it anywhere you like.
