I hang my keys, my husband's, car keys and others we use everyday. The hardest part was to make my husband use this key system, it took him 2 weeks, but now he puts his keys in their place every time! We are all happy. I also have a table under the keys where we put our cell phones and wallets. So when we are in a hurry the important things to take with us are keys, car keys, wallet and cell and they are all in one place near the door.

It's almost harder NOT to use the hook.

I definitely have way too many junk drawers! But I'm realizing I have all these drawers that could really help me organize things…I'm still trying to figure out what to use them all for! Oh the possibilities!

So why not the junk drawer, too? And I bought that organizer at a garage sale thinking it would help the junk drawer stay more organized. It has, for the most part, but it still gets out of hand after a while.

That said, I agree that is crazy how quickly the organization can disintegrate when you aren't on top of it. I'm hoping to stay on top of it this time (which is at least the millionth time I've said that!).
