wrapped gifts

What do you give someone who has everything? How about somewhere to store it all?

We’ve pulled together storage gift ideas for your favorite baker, shoe lover, kids and others on your list this holiday season.

Home Cook or Baker

No one likes a disorganized kitchen, especially people who enjoy baking and cooking. It’s a lot more fun to whip up a souffle or prepare a feast when it doesn’t involve hunting for ingredients or utensils.

A pantry makeover might not fit your budget, but you can maximize the existing space. A door and wall rack adds shelving to the inside of a cabinet or an open wall with minimal installation required. For an even easier way to increase pantry capacity, give your loved one a Hanging Hideaway Shelf 3-Pack. It hooks onto any wire shelf to take advantage of vertical openings between shelves.

An 8-tier wall rack adapts to accommodate items of different heights, from small fruit to bottles of olive oil.

Bonus idea: Load the rack or hanging shelf with extra gifts like homemade treats, specialty spices, jars of jam or other favorites for a more personalized gift.

Remote Worker

Does anyone on your gift list work from home? Improve the efficiency and attractiveness of their office this holiday.

A messy desk creates chaos and embarrassment, so give those piles of papers and files a hidden spot all their own. A cube organizer with adjustable shelves can hold binders, books and boxes. For your work-from-home loved one whose office is in a multipurpose room, choose a unit with doors.

This Modular Closet kit gives off professional vibes and blends right into almost any decor scheme.

Bonus idea: A new wall or desk calendar will help them keep an organized work schedule all year long.

First-time Homeowner

If someone special in your life has recently moved into a new house, help them outfit one of the closets with a new system. A ShelfTrack organizer kit can be modified to fit the space and to suit changing needs, depending on the season or the person using the closet.

A ShelfTrack kit makes a reach-in closet more efficient.

Want a more affordable idea? Make their existing closet work harder with accessories like hanging baskets and drawer kits.

Bonus idea: Package your gift with an article of clothing you think they’ll like.

Shoe Lover

Whether they collect stilettos or sneakers, your shoe lover could always use more organization.

A shoe organizer displays beloved pairs and can be used in the closet or the mudroom.

To decide on the type of storage, think about where their shoes tend to accumulate. Do you see stray footwear by the front door? A freestanding organizer might make the most sense. If it’s their closet that has shoes strewn everywhere, look at solutions that can be incorporated into their current system.

Bonus idea: Include a gift card to their favorite shoe store.

Kids (or Their Parents)

Dolls, stuffies, games and puzzles can quickly take over a room or an entire house. It doesn’t have to be that way. Simple storage products can do the trick (and perhaps teach the kids to straighten up after themselves!).

For a gift idea that does double duty, look at kid-sized storage furniture. It decorates the playroom or bedroom while creating places for books and toys to live.

A mobile toy chest is almost like another toy itself but it also quickens the clean-up process.

If you want to give a present that has long-lasting potential, go with cube organizers. They can coordinate with any scheme and change purposes as the child grows up.

Bonus idea: Add a new toy to their collection.

Show your loved ones how much you care by choosing thoughtful gifts that keep on giving throughout the year.
