I went looking for dupes this morning because you made them seem so necessary! Walmart has some like the x-large ones! They're by Mainstays and are called "Mainstays Plastic Utility Storage Organizer Bin, Clear, 15" x 10" x 9.5" " for those of us who don't live near a Container Store! They're only $5.78usd compared to TCS bin at $8.99usd! I can't say anything to how they hold up in comparison or how they feel in hand as I've not seen one from TCS in person. I already put them in my pantry and my girls bathroom closet. They're so big and I love that they're clear and have handles! Thanks for making this video!
I used these for a client who loved making quilts. It stored everything and she could see all her fabrics. Another client of mine uses them in the fridge among other places. I am sure she is using them 50 different ways as I write this!
Great video! I think these are also Cas"s favorites (Cas from Clutterbug). My Ikea Pax shelving units are just over 11" deep but my wardrobe units are much deeper. I can see using these for socks and underwear as well as Kondo-folded jeans and tees!
BINGO, Laura! In your generous tour of storage spots, you opened the dreaded under-the-sink cabinet... Mine is at critical mass and I have a troublesome back. When I need a product down there, and I do frequently...its dark and a JUMBLE...the nicest word I could think of. Your bins-a-lot video opened my eyes to possibilities that will become realities...soon! THANK YOU SO MUCH! : )
This is very helpful! My son has to see everything, so clear mind of various widths is wonderful! Also. I am desperate to organize canned goods without any de went pantry location. Thanks!❤
These look nice for a pantry or an inside area that has doors. Based on the dimensions I looked up for those. But I use 12x12 cardstock. And I don't want dust on my things inside an open bin since I live in a desert area and when the wind blows, most things gets dusty in the house. For those reasons, I'll keep looking. Thank you for sharing! Again, they would work well inside a pantry.
I love these bins, I had not thought of using them in some of the ways you did! Do you have a link for the Amazon label things? I didn't see one in the description - thanks
Since the Container Store is now over 2 hours away I went looking for a similar product. Someone mentioned Walmart's dup, how about the Brightroom collection from Target? Maybe you could compare them to see how they hold up. thanks for all your videos Laura!! I've put a lot of your ideas to good use.
I use these all the time. I have them in my pantry for canned goods. They are in my craft room and 12x12 paper or slabs fit in there perfectly. My husband uses them in the garage for his supplies and tools. So good. Only at Container Store!!
Hi, I’m Laura’s mom😀 I used the Large bins for the fabric. And I used the medium bins for patterns. I also use the bins in my pantry, bathroom, game closet, etc.
Hi! The embroidery thread organizers are something I purchased about 12 years ago. I’m pretty sure they were a Martha Stewart product, but I don’t think they are available anymore.
