A great children's catchall is a favorite lunchbox. It can be used to store crayons, pencils and other supplies.
TIPical Mary Ellen host Mary Ellen Pinkham tells how to create organizational catchalls around your home.

  • Hang a plastic shoe bag in your broom closet to easily store your cleaning supplies.

  • Use a terra-cotta flowerpot to hold all your kitchen-cleaning tools. The terra cotta absorbs moisture.

  • Carry and store your garden tools in a small cooler. This keeps them together and will prevent rusting if the tools are kept outside.

  • Use a decorative napkin holder for storing mail.
