Laura, do you have any ideas for a Toyota, Matrix? I have a ten yr. old son and 6 yr. old daughter. I love your ideas, but we no longer have a van. Thanks!

Just found these for my car. frigedoor.com – “Dots Anywhere” TT-23103$7.50 for 4 (2.95 sh) 1 3/4″ round dots that have adhesive backs + a magnet. Great for all my little hunks of paper in car!

What about a small bulletin board for reminders, mail and other paper items? I was thinking of putting it on the seat. This wouldn’t work if you have a passenger.

I am so glad I found your site…..I am a mother of two sets of twins and I have the same freak like obsession, oops I mean love of baskets (ha ha) as you do…..my only problem is I do not put them to use as you do, they seem to collect along with my great ideas that I never follow through on. My goal is to actually follow through and use these baskets as you do! Thanks for inspiring me!

Just found your website, LOVE IT! I definitely need the between the seats organizing on my van. One thing I have done was purchase some clear totes w/ clear lids for my van. They live in the stow and go compartments under the middle seats. I keep blankets, diapers, wipes, juice and water in them. I came up with the idea not because I’m organized (I truly wish I was!) but because the grime from everyone’s shoes was filling the storage area and getting the stuff all dirty and messy. I’m not organized, but I hate dirty! I have a couple of small zip boxes from IKEA and recently saw some car organizers at Sears that I think I’ll be off to check out….

Great ideas!!

I love your site,thank you. I have a 13yo boy and 8yo identical triplets and am getting ready to move to a new home. I will be doing most of the move myself and am so happy with so many of your suggestions that I just cannot pick a favorite. As a single mom running a “growing” berry business, thus the reason for the move, more land, my time is limited. In the past year many things have gone hog wild, I was caring for my dad and kids, got hurt at work and started my business from what was a hobby. I may just send you some jams just to say thank you.

As a Real Estate Professional I live out of my car!

Papers! Files!, and Signs, any tips for those of us who need to have things with us to work with. (My children are grown) but I still need organizing…:)

[...] When I first saw the display I was surprised because I haven’t seen these bins around my neck of the woods in quite some time and I’ve been wanting more for awhile now. There wasn’t a price sign near them so I grabbed two. When the cashier was ringing them up she told me they were only a $1.00 each so I charged quickly went back and grabbed four more. I love them for storing my CD’s and DVD’s. Some of you will remember that I use them to organize the CD’s in my van. [...]
