Instead of thinking of ways, you can afford to pay for a wardrobe system Ikea's full coat. You can then use cheap white bookshelves and white plastic organizer bins instead. Each carton has a different type of item. One is full of wires and chargers, while the other has ink for my printer. This way, you can easily find something when you need it. And when you walk into the room, it looks sleek and tidy, instead of a massive pile of trash.
