These Versatile IKEA Bins Are The Chic, Matte Upgrade You'll Love For Home Storage

Home storage has become something of an art for the modern homeowner. From hit television shows like "The Home Edit" to TikTok trends, there's always a new way to get organized. Finding a place for everything in your life isn't as easy as it looks on television. There are the oddly shaped items, the one-of-a-kind objects, and then there are the things you just don't know what to do with. Stash boxes offer a useful organization method that'll free up storage space in your closet, bathroom, kitchen, and more. Fortunately, they're easy to come by.

Shops like The Container Store, Walmart, and even The Home Depot offer collections of boxes and totes to declutter your life. While the options are seemingly endless, there's one store that specializes in stylish minimalism — IKEA. If you're a fan of simple functionality and clean lines, there's a new storage solution you won't want to miss. Check out the latest bin in the UPPDATERA lineup, and how you can put it to work organizing your life.

Get organized in style with UPPDATERA

If you're wondering how to maximize storage space in your small home, these trendy plastic bins could be the solution. The chic UPPDATERA box from IKEA replaces their previous glossy VARIERA container, which is still available in some countries like Great Britain. This new matte model comes in four colors to suit any style. There's white and light pink for softer spaces, and green and anthracite (which is a super dark gray) for bolder rooms. The boxes are also available in two sizes, 13 ¼ inches by 9 ½ inches for $3.99 and 9 ½ inches by 6 ¾ inches for $2.99. While listed among drawer organizers on the company website, there are many ways to use this product in your home.

Try the containers for storing cloths and hand towels in the linen cupboard, organizing spices in the pantry, sorting craft supplies, or putting away children's toys. Rather than struggle to play Tetris with closet shelves, toss things into bins for quick and easy decluttering in less than 10 minutes. With a solid finish, you can label, or decorate them with stickers to tell where things go. The lower lip on one side also makes it easy to see what's inside and reach for items without disturbing everything else. Mix and match, or color code each of the four styles for a unique purpose in your home to simplify cleanup time. However you choose to use these IKEA baskets, your closets will not only look organized, but stylish.
