Tie rods also work vertically. Place them from top to bottom in a cabinet or from a counter to the underside of a cabinet. In this position, they act as handy dividers for things like cutting boards and baking sheets.

Most dollar stores sell a budget-friendly version of a lazy Susan that you can place directly on the bathroom sink. When it’s difficult to keep track of small items and toiletries like cotton swabs, lotions, and soaps that you use every day, place them on this rotating turntable to easily find what you need. As a bonus, by being able to move everything at once, you’ll find cleaning the bathroom sink easier than ever.

Place the caddy on the floor next to the toilet, sink, or shower for added convenience and to see at a glance when it’s time to restock.
