Love a good hooker

I know, it makes me smile every time I say it but it's true.

Somewhere along the way of my expanding vocabulary as an adult words like thingy, plugger, and hooker have become a part of my everyday language. I know that all of these words have more appropriate names but sometimes in the middle of life the word “outlet” is not as readily available as the word “plugger”. Or the words “command hook” won’t roll off the tongue like “hooker”. 

Anyway, one of my favorite ways to get things organized and off surfaces is by using hookers. We use them for the typical “hang up your backpack and coat when you walk in the front door” but also for organizing the bags I designated for different things in my closet. These bags serve as a filing system for different projects that I'm working on. In our laundry room, they hold up small fabric baskets in that we put extra supplies. And the kid's bathrooms they are used to not only hang up their towels but also everyone's toiletry bags which help keep all the toothbrushes and toothpaste retainers off the counter.
