Hanging Sweater Bag & MagazineBoard Rack for storage

[caseyc]

I'm constantly tinkering for improving things.&nbsp; Previously, I had used a hanging shoe rack for putting various stuff into each slot. But every time I braked hard enough while driving, stuff would fly out...frustrating.<br><br>So I found this Hanging "PEVA 8-Compartment Hanging Sweater Bag" at The Container Store for $29.99. This bag hangs down from a cross-bar via velcro, and is fully enclosed in see-through plastic with a zipper through the middle to keep things inside.&nbsp; I just installed this in my van next to the rear doors next to the bed.&nbsp; I use this Sweater Bag to hold lightweight items like towels, small pillows, and place the heavier items on the bottom slot&nbsp;on floor.<br><br>I then had another cool idea.&nbsp; At the same store, I bought 2 "Reisenthel Magazineboard" for $14.99 each, and placed this hanging to the left of the 8-Compartment Hanging Sweater Bag.&nbsp; The Magazineboard is also suspended by the same cross-bar, and is held in place&nbsp;via a&nbsp;short length bungee cord (with hooks) inside the 2 holes on top&nbsp;wrapped around&nbsp;the cross-bar.&nbsp; I placed the 2 Magazineboards facing opposite sides so that the pockets open outwards in both directions.&nbsp; I now use the Magazineboards to place slippers inside, and various other small items.<br><br>Check out the pictures which you can better see what I've described.&nbsp; The pictures are shot vertically by my camera, but unfortunately, the pics are sideways in this posting.

I swear I shop at The Container Store and Bed Bath &amp; Beyond store more than any single dude should !&nbsp; No, I don't go there scoping out girls.&nbsp; I've spent literally hundreds and hundreds and hundreds at these stores, and various other stores.&nbsp; I'm a bit of an organizational freak, haha !&nbsp;
