The Container Store

How much is too much to pay for the perfect organization solution? com and today we are in one of my favorite and most expensive stores in the world. I love to search for the answers to the questions I get from the store, but to be honest, I often search for ideas and put them around with materials and articles from other stores, because the container store can be really expensive. There can be a lot of so my question today is, I will go through the container store and we will see to see which must-have articles are in the container store that are definitely worth your money. I'm curious to see from this perspective how much I would be ready to pay for the perfect organization solution? I can hardly wait to hear your opinion. I will link the container store below. Of course they have a great online presence. I would be happy if you share your opinion on this. If you have any tips for maintenance solutions for containers that you want to share with me, let me know in the comments. Okay, let's try it out. The truth is that most of us could not afford to spend our entire living room or our entire house in the container store. There are a few very expensive articles here, but there are also some colourful maintenance solutions. And as I already said, sometimes it is just worth going through the corridors to collect a few ideas and see what you can do with other materials or products from other places. The container store is famous for its pre-tourist room organization. There is a container for every little thing. And I love to see the different solutions here. I have to say that it is super easy to find transparent maintenance solutions in the container store, but you can do that elsewhere. My favorite is the Home Edition by Walmart. The whole product line at Walmart is very similar to the product line at Home Depot, but much cheaper. You can also find transparent maintenance solutions at TJ Maxx, HomeGoods and similar stores. I think these are really effective things that you can use in your living room and at home. Think about it. If it is a rather simple solution, I would not buy it here at Container Store. Container Store can really shine with its individual and part-individual solutions, with which you can organize a larger part of your room. This is the Alpha Product Line. Of course, the Alpha Product Line is a large selection of materials, but the shoe storage is the Alpha Product Line. I think it's great that you can put together a solution for every room size. This is the biggest advantage. Our storage rooms are often rather small. They are in an corner of the dining room, in an corner of the bedroom or in the smallest closet in the house. There we really have to maximize our storage space and create an individual shoe storage solution These are fantastic solutions or fantastic possibilities to really organize your room and use it optimally. Another important reason why I love the Alpha System is that it is suitable and interchangeable. This is how your creativity can develop with time. Maybe you start as a jewelry manufacturer and then get into paper work. Maybe you started as a scrapbooking and are now very much in the mood for planning. Whatever the case may be, you can exchange these shoe storage and adjust these systems with minimal cost. If you already have some of the most important components. This is how you can adjust your room while it continues to develop with your creativity. The other advantage of a system This brand will keep you up to date for a longer period of time. Maybe you take a wall or an corner in your living room and start with the organization with a certain budget and then want to expand it little by little. There are so many different accessories and possibilities to expand the Alpha System that you can expand it with time, which makes it a little more expensive. This system also offers unique functions such as the wall hanging, which is definitely a not sufficiently used place in most of the living rooms. If you have a solution on the door, with which you can stow a maxim Besides functionality, there are some very special, very individual aesthetic pieces in the container store. The pieces you find elsewhere, such as this rainbow basket, how could I go past this rainbow basket without mentioning it. I actually have a smaller version of this basket in my Bastel studio. It is wonderful, it is functional and I just love it. For me it was the cost for the smaller basket, simply because it fit so perfectly to the aesthetics of my apartment, that I could not let it go. Function plus beauty, yes, please, if you are looking for a very specific aesthetic piece, you might find it here in the container store. Here is another article that I always look at when I come to this store. The Beatsley Acton Shrink. These are smaller, tiny Acton Shrink with nice, deep shoeboxes, which only wait for it to be filled with Bastel needs. They are expensive, this special size cost $ 129. The bigger ones cost far over $ 200, but they are wonderful, they are in wonderful colors. They can be moved in a beautiful way, and I do not know what it has to do with them, but man, man, that is something I want to invest in, if I set up my Bastel studio after the conversion. It is so beautiful, they have also developed some uses that fit into these shoeboxes to make them even more functional. Of course, a large, open, empty shoebox can sometimes contain a lot of small grams, which rolls around here and there. But they have developed some great uses that they can put into these shoeboxes to order different types of Bastel needs, for example a tablet to order different pens. Maybe they are jewelry manufacturers, maybe they want to use this as jewelry boxes, as always, maybe that would be a great thing for little things. I just love it so much. It is definitely an investment, but you will get something It is strapperable and stable and definitely has a special aesthetic that you cannot even imagine with parts from the hardware store or similar shops. We have now talked a little bit about the look of certain pieces. I love this Rattan collection and I find it very unique. I do not know if you can find all parts of a similar collection somewhere else. Maybe you can rebuild it. Maybe you can search for Amazon, but if you have all parts in one place and that the look is the one you are striving for, it is the additional costs maybe worth. I would probably just keep the other parts here and there, which I can put together. They have a large selection of writing organizans here in the container store. PS, look at this. Oh, that's a pretty leather container. I totally They have a large selection of parts here, but you can actually find similar things elsewhere if you have a little patience. If you need everything at once, everything at once, then this might be the right place for one. Okay, let me show you a clear acrylic glass part that I have in my storage room. This is this one with very flat shoe lids, perfect for marking and stitching places. Yes, it was expensive. Yes, you can also find clear acrylic glass storage lids in other places, but I absolutely Here is another example for a really successful organization. I love these containers. They are made of steel, which means you can stack things over each other and then somehow slide around. That's fantastic. But for 9. 99-20 dollars per piece you could probably build something similar to Dollar Tree, Target or Walmart. Something Okay, the last reward-worthy solution I would And again we are back at Alpha, but instead of just charging, we are talking about shrinking the whole wall to set up a desk. I really can't imagine a better, suitable solution for a small room. And I actually did that at home in the past. When were newly married, we had a city house and a bookshelf in the basement, which was my art room, after we had converted the living room into a children's room. So a very small, very narrow room with a very low ceiling, where I had to bring a whole room full of utensils. We decided for Alpha, because we could adjust the length of the things. We could adjust the height. It just worked so well. And I can't even emphasize enough how I was able to use these parts to use a very small room optimally. And it was absolutely worth the cost, because I could save so much of my own utensils, instead of throwing away a lot, just because it didn't fit in. That's a funny solution to try out. You can play around with these various buildings online. You can let me recommend you to the store. You can also store these in the offer. So if you're almost done with your design, you can wait for one of the big Alpha sales, which is over the whole year. They're just so great, and I love it, that I've done it many, many years ago. Now there are so many more options in different colors and directions. They have beautiful shoeboards, front and beautiful table plates. It just looks very professional, I think. But the furniture can be adjusted individually. They're individual parts, which you can adjust for you. I mean, look at this narrow cabinet. It'so fabulous. I just love that you can throw away something that fits perfectly in your own room. Yes, is it more expensive? Sure. But I think it's especially worth a little room. So that was our little trip through the Container Store. Let's go outside. I'll show you what I bought and then pack the whole thing in. Everything's clear. So it was fun to explore the store. I know you wanted to know what I took with me this time. I took the Regenbogen Korb with me. I can't let you go. I have a smaller version in my living room and I could definitely need the bigger version. I'm looking forward to that too. Okay. The Container Store is a wonderful store full of great products that are really inspiring. If it's the perfect solution for you and your four walls, then I always think it's the cost value. Because having an organized life, having a tidy room is really inspiring. That inspires me personally and I suspect that's also for you. So if you can make this very special solution, then that's my opinion on the right choice. If you're looking for something in general, then there are some of my opinions on shops where you find some of these products cheaper. I think you can build some of these solutions in a different way, but some of them are very specific to the respective stores. For some it's about aesthetic decisions that have a great influence on your craft and your creativity. So it's all up to you. If you think it's worth it, then it's definitely worth it. Let me know below what you would have taken with you this time at the Container Store. I was just buying, with so many ideas in my head. And that really made me excited to build a future storage room. What am I looking forward to?
