The Container Store

I was so excited to be invited to a special pre-opening preview of our new Container Store thats opening up this weekend.  We were served a delicious lunch from our local Hubbell & Hudson Bistro and given the best goodie bag ev-ah!




The Container Store has always been my "go-to" store when I need to get inspired to "get organized".  There is literally a box, bin or bottle for everything!







There is an entire wall of hooks and hangers!





Love all their office storage.  You could totally do a little "Cloffice" space in a spare unused closet.


These cool decorative panels come in a 4-pack and make great wall fillers.



When my garage grows up it wants to look like this.






Then there's the wrapping paper isle- be still my heart......









How about you- do you get all giddy when you see all this organizing stuff?  Im off to go clean out a closet or two....

  8. Fun invite! I was just there today! Organization makes me so happy and I could have spent hours in there. I was good and only bought a few stocking stuffers, but I really wanted to buy tons of wrapping paper!
