Where do you keep kids napsacks?
I was thinking let's answer and ask more "where do you keep" questions for some good ideas and lots of organizing.

our Dolls and stuffed animals are also in a large size plastic bin.
Crafts get hung on the wall till they fall and get swept into the garbage. Standing crafts go in the breakfront.
Vacuum used to be in the laundry room but now it's in the garage.
I don't use shmattes because I don't know where to keep them. Would love some ideas!
Same with magazines. I don't have them because I don't know where to keep them

magazine rack...but it clutters the living room and I don't like it.
children's pictures and crafts get thrown out (admire them, keep them for a day or two or at most until shabbos)

I have a rack like that, but I don't have a good place to put the rack. It sort of sits under my kitchen table now.

Where do you keep clean laundry that hasn't been folded yet if you don't have a laundry room (folding righy away is just not viable for my family).
School backpacks go in a corner off our living room during the week and bedrooms on Shabbat. Not ideal but works for us.
Wish I had a good place for talis - no room in our coat closet.

This. I discovered that having more plastic laundry baskets than I thought I would need is a lifesaver. One for my room, one for DD, two in the laundry room. That way when I hang stuff out to dry, I can just rotate everything and put dried laundry back in the basket. Everyone is responsible for folding and putting away their laundry at their own pace.

Where do you keep papers etc. I have a lot of clipped recipes (until I try them), my journal, calendar, magazines I want to read, mail I need to take care of etc. I need a good solution for keeping these handy but out of sight. Right now it's on the window between my kitchen and dining room but I don't like it.

Most people never go through papers they saved. Especially nowadays where things can be digitalized easily. I dumped all papers including full file cabinets. Felt so liberating. If it’s something I think I will need- I snap a picture of it and email it to myself with the title
in the subject line. Voila I can always find anything im looking for. Recipe, mortgage statement supply lists etc

We used to keep the backpacks on the bottom of the coat closet. But then the doors were always open and the backpacks hanging out because the kids are constantly going back to get things, put things in. So I bought a big basket for near the door and they stand upright in that.
Potatoes and onions are in the fridge because that's the most organized place I have for them. Though I do have a bin for onions in the pantry and I use that too if I've bought a lot.
Stuffed animals in a beanbag.
Dolls in a toy bin for dolls.
Magazines on the nightstand near my bed and that means I've got to chuck them when I'm done with them.
Clean laundry in a foldable basket so that when I empty it I can fold it into a really small flat surface.
Tallis and tefillin on the shelf in the coat closet.
Wet and dirty rags in the laundry sink or straight into the washing machine for a load.

stuffed animals are placed neatly on top of my kids dresser. They can chose which one they want to sleep with that night but the rest stay on top.

Backpacks - we just installed hooks near the laundry. So happy they finally have a proper place to go! We've tried so many different things, this seems to work the best. If they have sport or library of swimming bags, it can go on their hook as well.
Vacuum - laundry
Shmattes - I have a plastic tub in the laundry cupboard
Clean laundry waiting to get folded - 🙈 Everywhere. I have laundry baskets that move around. They like to hang out in the playroom on the couch. I try to organise it somewhat and have one basket per person, but it usually just waits till I sit and sort and fold it all once a week.
My dream is to have a big beautiful laundry/ mud room
Those papers that come home from school all the time !!! What do I do with them???

Papers papers papers
They end up on kitchen table until shabbos and then I clear them off . Either garbage, magnet to fridge, or filed away if important. Parsha projects get to hang around for shabbos and then garbage.
