Storage & the Modern Pioneer

yes, it involves martha stewart

I know what you’re all thinking. How could I possibly promote a closet organizer designed by an ex-convict? Let me tell you a secret: there is no other way.

Not in my life, and perhaps not in yours. No other options exist. If you are living out of a shoe closet or bunking in someone’s pantry, you really are at the mercy of whatever life throws your way. In fact, you will probably be overjoyed to receive anything at all. So this piece of wisdom I offer to you: when it comes to the world of small space habitation, vertical living is the key.

Around the time that China was building islands in the South China Sea, I was wandering lonely as a cloud through Home Depot. Overwhelmed by the variety and volume of home organization decor, I grabbed the closest item in a sheer panic and ran. When I got home I discovered it was a six-cubed Martha Stewart Living home organizer. Curiously, I’d also taken several collapsible fabric bins, which upon closer inspection fit perfectly in the compartments.

Unfortunately I can’t say much for the colour selection of Martha’s designs, but I’m sure it’s tricky designing things online when you have other inmates impatiently awaiting their 15-minute internet slot.

Seriously, this is ugly right? Green is okay; beige is okay; but there’s a TIME AND A PLACE FOR BOTH

Luckily for me, the organizer only fits in my closet. Which I keep closed. Always. As you can see, I have utilized every compartment to its maximum potential:

My belongings are my birds’ belongings; therefore my belongings are merely expensive bird toys

Unfortunately you can see the lack of space creates some organizational issues, but I am a person who loves challenges.

  1. Oh my gosh! … Around the time that China was building islands in the South China Sea, I wandered lonely as a cloud in Home Depot?!!

    Oh my gosh! … that should be framed … or at least on a tee-shirt!

    Thanks for the laugh.
