The Problem: Limited space. Every item needs to be twice as efficient.

The Solution: It won't add square footage to your place, but this unit does double duty with a shelf over hooks ($25, www.organizes-it.com).

The Problem: You don't want to destroy your tiles.

The Solution: Small adhesive hooks fix stubbornly to tiles to provide a home for potential clutter (from the Container Store, $3 to $4, 800-786-7315, www.containerstore.com).

The Problem: Your closet space is too tight for a standard rack of hooks.

The Solution: A wood and chrome hook strip (with rounded pegs that won't snag clothes) juts out only 2 1/2 inches ($23, www.organizes-it.com).

The Problem: You don't want to mar a door with hooks and screws.

The Solution: Over-door hooks, no hammering or drilling required (set of two single hooks, $3; five-hook rack, $25: both from the Container Store, 800-786-7315, www.containerstore.com).
