16 Genius Organizational Products According To A Neat Freak

gstockstudio

I was raised by a woman who needs organizational containers for her organizational containers. Naturally, I'd grow up to be a neat freak, but no one knew the extent of it until I moved into my first apartment. When you pay for your own space, you have an even deeper appreciation for genius organizational products. It's inarguably yours, and there are no little siblings there to try on your clothes or draw on your Lisa Frank notebooks.

You also suddenly care if people can't walk around due to the mounds of clothing, because you're the one inviting company over. If you're a neat freak like me, you take pride in the fact that people actually look a little concerned when commenting on how clean your space is. I sort of live for it, actually.

That being said, every neat freak has their messy zone. Whether it's a particularly hectic closet or an underwear drawer that looks like a bomb hit it, everyone needs a little help from time to time.

These genius items can help you get everything spotless in no time. That way, the next time you have company over, your friends can look a little bit disturbed about how freakishly organized your closets are.
