Measure Twice, Buy Once

Raise your hand if you’ve got some well-intended boxes and bins that sit empty in your closet for months and months because you don’t know how to incorporate them in your space!

The HGTV Before and Afters, or even our own social media reels, can make it seem like all a space really needs is good product and voila! Unfortunately, that’s only half the equation. Yes, product is important, but more so are the measurements of your spaces beforehand to make sure you get things that will not only be functional, but that fit!

It’s so easy to underestimate the importance of measuring, but it’s essential to take accurate measurements of the available space. This simple yet crucial step can save you time, money, and frustration in the long run. Measuring spaces not only helps you avoid size-related issues but also allows you to maximize your space utilization. Imagine buying a sofa that’s too large for your family room or blinds too small for your window? The same logic applies when buying organizational products. Taking accurate measurements ensures that you select items that serve their intended purpose effectively, making your day-to-day life more convenient and comfortable.

By accurately measuring the dimensions of closets, shelves, and cabinets, you can select storage solutions that fit perfectly, making the most of every inch available. This allows you to optimize storage capacity and avoid wasted space, ensuring that you can efficiently store and access your belongings.

Whether you're organizing a small kitchen or a spacious garage, knowing the exact dimensions of your space allows you to select shelves, racks, bins, and containers that fit seamlessly.
