Organizing Expo Finds, Part 2

Quick- name the city in the US that most needs a non-smoking ordinance... if you said RENO, you're right! I am finally feeling better after recovering from a recurrence of a sinus infection brought on by being trapped in a Reno casino hotel for almost a week. It really knocked me out.

Now I can get back to telling you about the new things we saw there. I think the Shelfanator product is a really cool idea. The Shelfanator covers up wire shelving in pantries and closets and makes it much more functional. I have worked on pantries before with this problem... spices and packets and other small items falling through the cracks. A four foot length of Shelfanator is only about $20, so it's an affordable way to make your shelves work better. (photo below from Shelfanator's website)

A related favorite is Shelf Conversions. (Hi Allan!) They retrofit your cabinets with glide-out shelves, so you can make much better use of that silly half-shelf in the lower cabinets and avoid bending and stooping so much. (photo below from Shelf Conversions website) They come to your home and take measurements and give you an estimate, then they come back and install them for you.

More Expo Finds coming soon!

Hey Lorie-

Thanks for the reviews. I did not get as much time as I would have liked at the Expo. Big fan of Shelf Conversions but not familiar with the Shelfanator. Nice alternative for clients who are not ready to invest in glide out shelving. I would be interested in hearing your's and other's experiences with the Shelfanator.

Hope the fondue was good!
