I love a good home hack that doesn’t involve any effort. You know, like grabbing a utensil holder so you don’t actually have to organize that cluttered kitchen drawer. An organized home is a happy home, but taking a ton of time to sort your closet by color or installing an entire shoe storage system is a ton of work. But just because you’re lazy doesn’t mean your home can’t stay organized — thanks to these clever hacks.

What other hack-like products save you from doing a long and complicated DIY project? There’s an easy-to-wash fridge bin that’ll make all of your sparkling water flavors look cohesive in the fridge and keep them all in one easy-to-see spot. This list also has under-bed storage bags that let you get away with bunching up that folded sheet. Trust me, the breathable zipper bag keeps those unfolded sheets nice and hidden under your bed.

So, stick a few of these things around your home, and you’ll be shocked just how organized everything ends up being.
