Is your New Year's resolution to organize your closet, your house, your life? If the things around you in your everyday life are in order, you might find yourself with a more orderly mind as well. So we've found some great storage items to help you reduce the clutter in your home - and maybe add to its beauty at the same time! Look for furniture that does double duty, such as a trunk-style coffee table in which you can store magazines and books. Put clothing you don't use year-round under your bed and out of the way. Hang CDs and DVDs from a door with a media rack. Save space with shelves that lean against the wall instead of a bulkier bookcase. Or put up photos on an interesting wall shelf from West Elm. You're sure to clear up space and clear your head. Check out the SLIDESHOW!

In which case, you're probably Mary-Kate Olsen and kudos to you for being not only stylishly messy but also crazy rich. For the rest of us, there's a wealth of hidden storage pieces out there perfectly suited to whisking our clutter out of eyesight. For six stylish de-cluttering options, check out my slideshow.
