This ottoman is great for loads of reasons. Aside from the fact that it's made with comfy faux leather, the lift-up cushion is the perfect place to store extra throw blankets, books, or whatever your heart desires.

2. Shoe cabinet

Regular old shoe racks expose your pairs to the world. This trendy looking cabinet would look great in any entryway, and its additional two top drawers are the perfect place to toss extra house keys or garage door openers.

3. Earring organizer

This is by far my favorite bedroom addition. By simply backing a picture frame with lace, you have an easy way to organize earrings and jewelry that not only clears them off of the top of your dresser, but is also decorative too. Plus, it makes picking out your favorite pair a breeze.

4. Re-purpose your shoe organizer
