Under the sink

tiny_courageous

It's the only cupboard in the house where I know where everything is. :j All cleaning products for the whole house on one side (on two shelves), and on the other side picnic plates and outdoor type stuff, spare pegs, etc, binbags and vases (for those rare occasions when oh has [STRIKE]done something wrong[/STRIKE] brought me flowers

Sentora

For those of us with oh's of the n ot-so-handy type, [EMAIL="L@keland"]L@keland[/EMAIL] do a plastic shelf thingie just for this situation.

Thanks Calley but Iceland has stopped selling it so the Manager in the Reading Iceland said .Went into Wilkinsons 2 weeks ago in the Butts Center in Reading and they have none either.I used to always get it in the £1 shop or Savers.

I bought my last lot at Sainsbury Calcot.

What about Robert Dyas?

i think this is what they mean by a butler box.... forgive me if its not im not an expert on plastic storage options or the amazing things of a butler.

This is at least what both my granny and my mother had for storage under the kitchen sink i didnt feel the need to have one too as a bucket served the same purpose and could be used for other things too.

I had the same problem a few weeks ago when I popped in to my local iceland. Had a nice chat with a SA about how good it was although she was saying they stopped it about a year ago (think that was a slight exaggeration ).

Found some in a nice cheap shop on my hols and stocked up but would be interested to find out if any national shops stock it as no home bargains/wilkinsons local to me.

I'm avoiding looking in mine, it's truly awful. Now you have all shamed me with superorganizedness I guess I will have to put on a mask, gloves and breathing apparatus and tackle it. Ugh!

WASHER

I don't have a shelf either due to plumbing etc, so I got one of these:

(didn't pay for that it, can't remember where I got it from)

I store dishwasher tablets, dishcloths, sponges on top rack.

On the bottom rack I store polish, washing up liquid, kitchen cleaner, bleach etc.

On the actual shelf, that's a different matter, not quite got that organised yet, thats why I'm looking at this thread:rotfl:

I've always wanted one of those, would save me trying to jiggle the polish,duster,bathroom cleaner etc up the stairs as well as the vaccum cleaner in one go......oooh I'm on Os I mean stardrops and the vinegar:D

I have one of these on the back of the kitchen door to free up a wee bit of space in the cupboard, http://www.frooly.com/evajeanie/shop/view-product?pid=6133&campaign=googleProducts

I have this from lakeland. It has been in 3 different arrangements in 3 different houses and is infinitely variable and useful. I had a new sink last week and just adjusted it again for the different plumbing. I have a stack of dusters and cloths and other things on it, things in trays and dishwash tabs in a lock and lock. It is one of the most useful things that I have. I had it very wide in one house to go into a corner cupboard and I reduced the width for this house so that I could put a bucket next to it. It even accomodated a waste disposal in one house. I think I have had mine for over 10 years and the shelf pieces just clip into place and I keep any spare shelf pieces at the back
