- Scarf rack
Transform your wrinkled scarf pile into the likes of a trendy boutique. Finding the right scarf has never been easier — plus, they’re so pretty, it kind of counts as wall art too.
- Desk organizer
Use a tension rod and little curtain hooks to hang reminders, to-do lists, mail or whatever else is important in your life. We admire the way they’ve spray painted the one here a handsome brassy color.
- Shower gel and face wash organizer
For all those pesky shower gels and face washes that take up way too much space, this is the ideal solution. Hang them off the edge of your tub so they’re organized and so the liquid always falls to the bottom. Genius!
- Baby or pet gate
Instead of splurging on a gate, keep the toddlers and pets where you need them by springing up a few tension rods. The best part is probably the ease, as you won’t have to deal with all the locks and mechanisms of a regular gate. That being said, you shouldn’t use this by a stairway or with really little kids.
- Play forts
Turn a cozy corner into a reading nook, princess castle or fort with the help of some tension rods, curtains and a little imagination. It’s easy to put up, and just as easy to take down.
- Organize cutting boards and cookie sheets
With the help of a few tension rods, you no longer have to stack your cutting boards, cookie sheets or trays on top of one another. Keep them organized and easy to reach with this simple DIY.
- Baby proof cabinets
Keep curious little ones out of your cabinet drawers with the help of a tension rod. All you need to do is secure one rubber edge to the bottom lip of your countertop and the other to the floor to keep those busy hands out. And remember, be sure to get one thin enough to squeeze through your fittings.
