People who organize homes swear by these cheap tricks to make your home look so bougie

Give your linen closet a much-needed makeover with these clever bed sheet organizers. Each set includes sturdy fabric storage boxes designed to keep sheets, pillowcases, and duvet covers neatly bundled together instead of piled in a messy stack. As Megan Weber, owner and lead organizer at White Space Organizing, explains, “Without the hassle of perfectly folding fitted sheets, these give your linen closet a streamlined look. Each set stays neatly contained and easy to find, keeping your shelves neat and everything easily accessible.”

When it comes to creating a bougie home, Meghan Cocchiaro, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organized by Meg, says it’s all in the details. To that end, she suggests creating displays of items like sunglasses. This acrylic sunglasses organizer comes in three, four, five, or seven layers to hold your complete collection and snaps together in seconds. It’s a quick shortcut to boutique-style organization.

Another way to elevate the look of your closet, according to David Alan of Closets By David Alan, is by using lighting to highlight your wardrobe — like with these motion-sensor closet lights. A motion sensor automatically illuminates your space when you need it, plus you can choose from three adjustable color temperatures and customizable brightness settings. The design provides soft, even lighting without harsh glare, while the peel-and-stick installation makes it super easy to set up.

“Adding shelf liners is a great way to add unexpected design flair,” says Robyn Reynolds, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organize2Harmonize. Choose from 25 prints of this decorative nonslip shelf liner available in 20 different width and length combos. It includes a knife and tape measure for effortless installation and instantly adds an element of design to an otherwise overlooked space.

Robyn Reynolds, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organize2Harmonize, says, “Adding drawer organizers and under-the-sink storage will add panache to any bathroom.” These two-tier under-sink organizers just might become your bathroom’s new best friend. Available in 10 different styles and configurations, each unit has a pull-out drawer for easy access and includes dividers, too. The slim profile means they fit easily in spaces with pipes.

When it comes to creating a bougie home, specifics count. Megan Weber, owner and lead organizer at White Space Organizing, says, “Give your baseball hat collection a clean look with clear acrylic organizers. Instead of stacking hats on a shelf or in a bin, display them neatly plus keep them visible for easy access.” These sleek acrylic hat racks can hold up to 14 hats, keeping them securely in place without crushing or bending their shape. Their clear, minimalist design blends seamlessly into any space while nonslip feet provide added stability.

Yuliia Vadiuk, owner of LA Top Clean, says one way to zhuzh things up is to “decant soap and detergent into matching glass pump bottles,” explaining, “Bright plastic jugs are the first thing that makes a kitchen or laundry room look cheap. Plain glass or amber bottles cost a few dollars each and the whole room instantly looks like a boutique hotel.” These aesthetic detergent dispensers holds up to 64 ounces of detergent or fabric softener each and even have a handy spot to hold a measuring cup so that nothing goes to waste. Chic, waterproof labels are included, too.

Megan Barnhart, founder of Barnhart Home, says, “Homes often feel ‘bougie’ or elevated because the spaces are fairly clean, there is little to no clutter on the countertops, and for the most part, there is not clothing hanging over furniture etc.” So how to get there? “Get in the habit of taking a few extra seconds to put the item away. Install hooks by your entry spaces [and] in your closets [...] it is much easier to hang something on a hook than have to fold it to put it away when it is something you will be re-wearing.”

Give this four-piece set of hooks a try — they install easily, come in three finishes, and can hold up to 40 pounds, too. When you’re not using them, they fold into the wall for a neat look.

Following the advice of Megan Barnhart, founder of Barnhart Home, you can declutter your space by hanging items on this over-door hook as a temporary storage solution if you’re not ready to fold things up and put them away. It comes in styles ranging from five hooks to a whopping 48. It fits most standard residential doors without impeding their function. Hang one in the bathroom or on your closet door to instantly add more closet space without breaking the bank.

Robyn Reynolds, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organize2Harmonize, says, “Adding contact paper to the back of bookcases will add style to an otherwise boring space.” Enter this moody, vintage-inspired peel-and-stick paper. Add it to the back of any bookcase or surface of any shelf to instantly give your space an elevated vibe and pop of color without commiting to paint. Choose from a black or white background print — whichever suits your space best.

A chaotic pantry shelf can downgrade your whole kitchen, from its looks to its functionality. Co-founder of Lumea Living Jen Rowe says, “A tiered riser makes the back row visible, so a shelf of cans starts to look like a gourmet grocer’s display. Give each tier one category, with every label facing forward, so you see the whole inventory at a glance.” You can keep your cans nice, neat, and organized when you store them on this expandable bamboo can rack. Complete with three tiered shelves, it holds up to 24 standard cans while keeping everything visible and easy to reach. Choose from three expandable sizes.

Megan Barnhart, founder of Barnhart Home, says, “You do not need to decant all of your dry pastas and rice, but take snack bars and packaged goods out of the boxes they came in. I love to place them in clear acrylic bins or baskets on the pantry shelves. Not only does it look beautiful, it also often takes up less space than the bulky store packaging.” You can calm pantry clutter with this two-pack of acrylic see-through storage bins available in a bunch of sizes for a custom look and feel. With just a little transferring, you can transform your pantry into a Pinterest-inspired space.

Robyn Reynolds, owner of Organize2Harmonize, recommends upgrading your dresser by utilizing dividers to tame the chaos. These highly rated underwear organizers are a great option when it comes to keeping the clutter at bay and within a system. The three-pack of bins holds up to 64 pairs of underwear — but don’t stop there. Use them to store tights, socks, sports bras, and pretty much anything else you can imagine, too.

David Alan of Closets By David Alan, says, “You can elevate the entire look of your home by making your closet more boutique [...] by adding glass frosted drawer fronts, velvet inserts, and beautiful lighting to display your clothes.” This self-adhesive velvet liner comes in nine bold colors and is made with a soft, plush material that helps protect delicate belongings from scratches and sliding around. Just measure, cut to size, peel off the backing, and stick it wherever you need a little extra protection or polish: on shelves, on the back of your closet wall, or anywhere else.

Imagine getting dressed for the day and being greeted by a bougie-looking closet. Olivia Parks, owner of Professional Organizer New Orleans, says that using nonslip velvet hangers like these “is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to make your closet look nicer,” adding, “Matching hangers make everything look more consistent, organized, and put together without having to spend much money.” With 50 to a pack, they come in eight colors and can hold up to 11 pounds each.

Meal-prep supplies can quickly overwhelm your kitchen. Blanka Molnar, founder of Your Sorted Space, says, “Clear your counters so you do not get overwhelmed with visual clutter.” One of the biggest countertop culprits? Clunky paper towel holders. This self-adhesive paper towel holder comes in seven finishes and is super easy to install — just literally peel and stick. Made from durable, rust-resistant stainless steel, it can be installed underneath a cabinet or directly on a wall to keep paper towels conveniently within reach.

Decorative organizing boxes can help add to the design of home office spaces, according to Robyn Reynolds, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organize2Harmonize. In line with that, this set of two file organizer boxes features expensive-looking linen-style fabric and gold-tone handles. The lids help keep your most important documents and photos organized and protected, while the label windows let you note exactly what’s inside.

Rebecca Deans, founder of SHIFT Into Organized, says, “Everyday products like hand soap and dish soap often come in packaging that creates unnecessary visual clutter. Transferring these essentials into coordinating refillable dispensers helps create a cleaner, more intentional appearance in kitchens and bathrooms.” These amber glass dispenser jars come in nine different styles and include a chic bamboo tray that instantly elevates your sink area. While looking chic, they also help reduce single-use plastics, too.

Also super helpful when it comes to keeping counters clear, per the advice of Blanka Molnar, founder of Your Sorted Space, this over-the-sink drying rack is a great swap for a traditional, clunky drying system. It’s made from sturdy stainless steel and heat-resistant silicone, while the nonslip design keeps everything securely in place. Open slats allow water to drain directly into the sink and best of all, it rolls up neatly for easy storage when you're finished.

Cluttered cosmetics and hygiene products can keep your bathroom from reaching its bougiest potential, but there’s a simple fix. Yuliia Vadiuk, owner of LA Top Clean, says, “A tray turns a pile of bottles into a display, and it makes wiping the counter a 10-second job.” This rotating organizer more than does the job with its stylish ribbed outer layer and elevated gold feet. Choose from eight stylish colors and just gently rotate it to easily get what you need.

Blanka Molnar, founder of Your Sorted Space, recommends lighting a candle so the bathroom smells good, but why not take it a step further and get the scent without the flame? This candle warming lamp melts the wax and lets the scent spread without the dangers or worry of an open flame. As an added bonus, it doubles as a stylish secondary light source, too.

Megan Barnhart, founder of Barnhart Home, says, “For countertops, I like to use a small basket to corral items that are not being put away right away or perhaps need attention later. When the basket is full, that is a visual cue that it is time to tackle the contents inside.” This modern yet simple mesh steel basket is perfect for that task and comes in 13 colors including funky lime green and soft pink. It looks chic sitting on your counter and the wooden handle makes it easy to transport.

For a quick and easy living room upgrade, Megan Barnhart, founder of Barnhart Home, says, “Corral items on your coffee table with a tray.

Add a lovely candle or small plant to elevate the look even more.” This round decorative tray comes in three neutral colors and is perfectly sized for all of the above at about 11 inches wide. The fluted sides lend it an upscale feel.

Home offices can feel a little blah and utilitarian. Robyn Reynolds, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organize2Harmonize, says, “[For the home office], keeping supplies and papers in decorative boxes adds to the design.” This set of two fluted storage boxes with lids helps to conceal the clutter without a second thought. The fluted design comes in upmarket shades like sage, beige, and gray, instantly making clutter cute.

MJ Rosenthal, a Certified Professional Organizer and owner of An Organized Life, recommends storing puzzle pieces and other small items in hard-shell pouches, like this three-pack set. “Nothing gets lost and the shelf looks great,” she says, adding that they “stand up and stay lined up on a shelf.” Use them for puzzle pieces, office supplies, crafts, and everything else. They come in different sizes and are transparent, waterproof, and durable, too.

If your dresser feels like a mess every time you open it, Robyn Reynolds, Certified Professional Organizer and owner of Organize2Harmonize, has some advice: “Adding drawers organizers or dividers to your drawers will elevate the look and feel of your dresser.” These plastic dividers deliver instant organization while being smooth, sturdy, and easy to install, too. They expand from 12.8 to 22 inches, so they fit a variety of drawer sizes, whether you use them to separate T-shirts or socks and underwear.

The insert itself comes in a variety of sizes depending on your spice collection and slides neatly into a drawer.

Storing spare towels can take up unnecessary linen closet space, but there’s a better way — you can display them. Blanka Molnar, founder of Your Sorted Space, says, “Use a fabric or small wicker basket for your towels in the guest bathroom.” A great option? This storage basket which boasts beautiful scalloped edges and comes in two sizes and eight colors, including neutral beige, bold black, and earthy green.

Baskets are a classic for managing clutter. Megan Barnhart, founder of Barnhart Home, says, “When using baskets in your room, you do not need to stick with the exact same one, but try to stay in the same color scheme to give your space a cohesive feel. Baskets bring a certain natural element and texture that many people overlook.” Check out this five-piece set of rope storgae baskets complete with leather-look handles for an elevated vibe. The set includes a variety of sizes, all in cohesive colors to create a unified look. Use them for linens, toiletries, and other knicknacks.

Some of the most chaotic messes in your home can be found inside drawers. Barbara Metzel, founder of Professional Organizing Plus, says, “The plastic drawer organizers set from Vtopmart prevents cluttered messes by keeping your loose stuff contained.” She points out that they’re clear, “so you can easily see what's inside,” whether you’re storing cosmetics, desk supplies, or just organizing the junk drawer in the kitchen. The cult-favorite set includes a variety of sizes that let you customize the setup while the nonslip bottoms keep them from sliding around every time you open the drawer.

Elevating your bathroom doesn’t have to involve a pricey remodeling project. Wendy Glaister, interior designer, shares a simple yet chic idea saying, “Store bathroom toiletries in pretty containers. A bathroom can be made instantly more glamorous by eliminating plastic sleeves [...] Try installing pretty little glass containers on the counter or a shelf filled with cotton balls, Q-tips, and cotton pads.” This glass container has a crystal-like finish and is topped with a lid in pretty gold — but you can also choose from other finishes.

MJ Rosenthal, a Certified Professional Organizer and owner of An Organized Life, recommends an unconventional way to keep your blankets and quilts nice and neat: wooden hangers.

Drape a quilt or blanket over one thick, beautiful wooden hanger, and it becomes a display piece that’s easy to use.” This set is highly rated in comes in upmarket finishes like cherry, walnut, and black.

Ready to tackle the fridge? “Pull fruits and vegetables out of produce bags and clamshell containers and into clear, lidded bins, one bin per type, on a single shelf at eye level,” says Jen Rowe, co-founder of Lumea Living. “A fridge starts to look intentional once you can see everything in it.” This two-pack of produce savers is specifically for strawberries, blueberries, cherry tomatoes, and other small fruits and vegetables, complete with removable ventilated baskets that promote airflow to help extend freshness. And if you really want to nail the organization game, Rowe says, “The pro detail is zoning. Keep apples and other ethylene-heavy fruit in their own bin, away from leafy greens, and put the ‘eat first’ bin at the front.”

Jen Rowe, co-founder of Lumea Living, says, “Take food storage bags out of their retail boxes and put them in modular storage boxes within a drawer, one size per box. The printed packaging creates visual noise and this stops the drawer from shouting.” These bamboo baggie organizers are perfect for the job, with four separate compartments that can be arranged to fit your space. They keep different bag sizes neatly sorted and easy to grab, plus the included labels make finding exactly what you need super easy.

Olivia Parks, owner of Professional Organizer New Orleans, says, “If you have open shelving, I recommend using matching baskets or bins, like wicker, suede, or rattan. They hide what’s inside and make everything look more put together compared to clear bins, where you can see all the stuff you’re storing.” These wicker baskets do the trick — with two in a set and eight sizes to choose from to suit your unique storage needs. The coolest part? They collapse flat when not in use, so are easy to store away, too.

With 14 color and print options to choose from, you can select whichever suits your style best, combining form and function.
