Here are 10 of the tricks I know I'll be using. Head on over to The Daily Buzz to see the full list of 25.
Top Row:
• Rub a walnut over scratches on furniture to hide imperfections (via Apartment Therapy)
• Store sheet sets inside one pillowcase to keep set together. I love this idea because pillow cases, like socks, seem to vanish. There must be a third dimension somewhere in my home filled with all our missing socks and pillow cases. (via Martha Stewart)
• Create a space-saving container garden using guttering (via Life Hacker)
• Use a wet wipes container for storage. The example shows plastic bags, but I'm going to use it to store baby wipes. (via Savvy Housekeeping)
• Place iPod or MP3 player in a bowl to make a quick, impromptu speaker. We tried this and it really does amplify the sound! (via Real Simple)
Bottom Row:
• Place a stocking over a vacuum hose to find small items. (via Instructables)
• Use a muffin tin to store craft or small household items. You can secure the container cups using magnets. (via Family Fun Go)
• Finally, finally learn how to correctly fold a fitted sheet so it's not a jumble of cotton. (via Stephmodo)
• Use a box lid as a cupcake/muffin holder. (via Real Simple)
• Use egg cartons to organize and store holiday decorations. (via Re-Nest)

I stick egg cartons inside my boots so they'll stand up in my closet
Some very clever ideas here.
egg cartons I have plenty and now boots won't flop all empty!!! thanks very much!!
love the sheet storage idea.
I learned how to properly fold a fitted sheet when I was about 14, it's one of my pet peeves when people just jumble it up and throw it in the closet.
also love the sheet storage idea. i can't believe i never heard that before.
a wet wipes container to store baby wipes!!!! brilliant!!!
My DH sometimes goes through the golfballs that he has collected on our property; cleans them; and puts them in egg cartons to leave at the coffee machine at work.
A tip from my mom that I love: organize jewelry by putting earrings and small jewelry in ice cube holders.
