Storage and Organization: avoid the Big Box

The Big Box retailers will be after you in the coming weeks with ads full of storage and organizational aids.  Begging you to spend big bucks on loads of plastic closet organizers.  Note to retailers and home builders everywhere: those wire shelves make dents in my sweaters, stop it, please.  Here are some fun ways to organize with things you may already have or may find at a salvage shop.  Except those modern trunks.  Those are new and probably expensive, but I heart them anyway.
