1.
 I adore this idea…I also love my bamboo steamer but I never thought of storing my baby new potatoes or garlic (notice I don’t say onions…just don’t like those little guys : ) LOL!!! 
But it makes perfect sense…the levels have holes and they can breath so why not use it as storage?  Very smart…from the pages of
a little ps. on uses for a steamer…check out this brilliant idea…
 it’s a pie carrier…what a fabulous gift this would be…a pie and the steamer…this is an idea that I am storing away and will use very soon!  Thank you Martha

What a SMART idea this is…talk about INEXPENSIVE and so incredibly useful…I have used this in a child’s room but not in the kitchen…LOVE IT!!!
17.
What an incredible idea…this kind of storage could be used any where…how great would this be in a craft room…oh the goodies it can hold…shelves and shelves of them…a perfect storage piece and made from pallets…keep your eyes peeled for these because the possibilities are ENDLESS!!!
18.
How pretty is this storage space…just take note of all the little ways things are stored…I am sure you can use these ideas everywhere…I LOVE the tea box!
19.
These tins and chalkboard tags are popping up every where…Love this idea too!!!  This is great in a play room…can you imagine how many crayons one of these jumbo tins can hold!!! Great for holding pasta…potatoes and so much more in the kitchen…great idea!
20.
has an amazing post on the uses of boxes…I am going back there when I am done to gaze upon them for some major inspiration!  But how cool is this…if you are lucky enough to get your hands on some card catalog drawers…the uses for them are beyond infinite!
21.
Well when I saw this…I thought…why not store your dish clothes and dish towels in here and maybe some serving utensils in the pockets…you know the ones that you don’t use every day…use it opened or closed…a great little decorating idea and storage!!!
22.
I know that this has been featured before…but it is just a great thing to keep in mind…redoing an old piece of furniture can be used for many things and this is an example of utilizing it to all new heights…do you have a little dresser? a tea cart? It can have a new life with some paint…hooks…paper towel roll…knobs and more! Keep thinking outside the box!!!
Have you ever seen the other side…
really…this piece is AWESOME!!!!
Thank you Apartment Therapy for showing us this project!

    So many ideas…it boggles the mind. But, my mind needs to be boggled. I’m pretty creative with storing but I’m thinking of moving into a smaller space and have lots to store – or let go of. This helps me make my decision…as in…I can do this.
