This post is all about apartment organization hacks.
Now that I am moving into an apartment, one of my favorite things to think about is apartment organization hacks.
Almost always, apartments are on the small side and you really need to be smart about how you are organizing them.
This post is all about the best apartment organization hacks.
Apartment Organization Hacks
1. One Item Per Shelf
Recreate This Apartment:
This is a great organization hack for any kind of storage closet you have!
Dedicate shelves to one specific kind of item. So towels go on one space, toilet paper in another, if you've looked at this picture you get what I'm saying.
This might seem like common sense, but you'd be surprised how many people don't realize how much they actually have on storage shelves and how cluttered it makes it all seem!
2. FoldBlanketsand Keep Them in One Place
Recreate This Apartment:
This is an apartment organization hack that ensures you stay cozy while staying organized!
Keep all your blankets in one bin, and keep them folded. That makes your common spaces look so cozy and neat!
3. Labels... on Everything
Recreate This Apartment:
I think that the greatest organization hacks for any apartment are the ones that allow you to make it LOOK like you're organized, even if you're not really. Don't worry, it can be our little secret 
Labels are a genius hack that does just the trick. So when in doubt, label it out!

4. Containers inside of Drawers
Recreate This Apartment:
Drawers can get messy sooo quick!
Organizing drawers with different size containers gives everything a specific place. Instead of just throwing everything in the drawer, this guarantees that everything will stay organized.
5. Add Racks to the Inside of Cabinets
Recreate This Apartment:
Another great apartment organization hack is to make space where one would normally think that there isn't space.
One way to do this is by hanging things inside of cabinets and doors. This saves sooo much space and looks way more organized, and isn't that always the goal?
6. Use a Chalkboard for Roommate Reminders
Recreate This Apartment:
I love this apartment hack because it gives you somewhere to write notes and reminders so you'll never forget, and gives a cute decoration to any living space!
7. Use a Wine Rack to Store Towels
Towels honestly take up soo much space, so any way to minimize this is a great idea!
This is perfect because it keeps your towels from taking up closet space AND the rack can be used in a future home for wine!

8. Add Organizers To Your Closet!
Recreate This Apartment:
Ooooo the closet. Some hate it, and some love it (mostly because it gets messy so easily!) tbh I don't know where I stand on that, but I do know that it is a space that is often in need of some organization hacks!
This pin makes for some great closet inspiration for sure. Baskets, laundry organizers, etc. If you can get your closet looking like this, I'd keep the doors off of it too!
9. Organize Cans in a File Organizer
Recreate This Apartment:
This is such a GENIUS idea! It saves space and looks nice. Wow, that's an apartment organization hack if I've ever seen one!

Underneath my sink is just... honestly a black hole. But I think that this organization hack will totally help.
11. Maximize Corner Spaces
Another smart organization hack, especially in tiny apartments, is to make the most of the space you have.
Use the corners! They make corner furniture for a reason... It makes everything look nice and gives you a couple extra drawers and shelves and who wouldn't want that?
12. Organizers Under the Sink
Recreate This Apartment:
Underneath the sink is a place that gets messy so easily. By using different organizers, like these bins, there is no way that it can get cluttered.
Plus, you'll be able to store sooo many more things this way!
13. Use the Back of the Door Too!
Recreate This Apartment:
I talked about the insides of cabinets, but just to be sure that you get all the organization hacks for all of the apartment, I have to include the back of the door too!
A lot of people think that the backs of doors need to be used for only shoes. But just know that you can use them for so much more. Like this photo does with purses and shoes!
14. Pull. Out. Drawers.
Recreate This Apartment:
Pull out drawers are the KEY to an organized apartment. There. I said it.
And the greatest thing about these kinds of drawers is that you can now easily install them in basic cabinets. So, if you have a cabinet to spare, make some drawers in it to keep yourself and your space organized!
15. Utilize Containers in the Fridge
Recreate This Apartment:
This is especially important if you have roommates because the fridge can get crazzzy.
With limited space for food, it gets hard to find space for every roommate. Having the fridge as organized as possible is KEY to maximizing space for everyones food. I promise this will help you so much!
16. Use Racks for Plates
Recreate This Apartment:
This is a great apartment organization hack for smaller apartment that don't have as much storage in the kitchen as they need.
This gives you so much more space for plates or bowls that you wouldn't have if you just used the normal shelf space!
17. Use Bins in Your Closet
Recreate This Apartment:
Using bins is sooo helpful when organizing your closet. It keeps things in the right place as well as maximizing storage space.
You know how I feel about labeling already but labeling your bins makes everything even easier!
18. Use Turn Table Containers
Recreate This Apartment:
This is such a great apartment organization hack for those spaces that are harder to reach.
By using the turn table containers, you can easily find what your looking for without having to dig around underneath the sink.
19. Hang Blankets on a Ladder
Recreate This Apartment:
How many times have I talked about blanket ladders? I know it's a lot but their function is so incredibly versatile that they just keep poppin' up.
Blanket ladders are honestly super unique storage options and give a room a cool and different look while still being functional.
20. Organize Bathroom Supplies
Bathrooms are sometimes the place where I tend to be the least organized since I don't spend as much time as I do in other rooms in my apartment.
If you organize your bathroom supplies right away, you are definitely more likely to keep things in their place throughout the year.
21. Use Wall Space Over the Toilet for Storage
Recreate This Apartment:
Apartments are usually on the smaller side so it's important to utilize every space for storage as you can.
Using storage space over the toilet is so smart. You can store products there as well as add a few decorations to make it look more put together.
22. Organize Makeup by Category
Recreate This Apartment:
My makeup somehow always becomes a mess. By organizing your makeup by category in a nice container like this, it is a lot harder to mess it up and become disorganized.

This cart is a great way to have a side table while also store a few extra things in the bottom racks!
