A magazine file is one of my favorite organizing tools. You can use it for more than just printed materials or office folders. Here are some uses I found for it. A magazine file makes a good can food keeper or dispenser just like what I did here! It is also a great place to keep kitchen items like foil, wax paper, plastic wraps and the like. If you attach this to the back of one of your kitchen cabinets, just imagine how much drawer space you can save! apartmentapothecary.com I found someone who did the same thing but used it for her blow dryer instead. Such a space saver! sunnyslifeinrehab.blogspot.com Christmas is just around the corner. A magazine file makes a great container for a gift basket. Here’s a sample of what I prepared. My favorite use for a magazine file is for my shoes. I was able to fit 8 pairs of shoes in this one and was able to save a ton of space inside my shoe closet because of it.
