What is your most ingenious storage trick?

I couldn’t afford a nice piece of furniture but didn’t want anything cheap looking, either, so I made a TV cabinet out of an old but nice dresser my mom had bought me years earlier at a yard sale. I hid the DVD/VCR and the cable box in the center drawer, cut holes for the cords, and made the drawer front into a flip-down with parts from a hardware store. The other drawers hold CDs and DVDs. The dresser looks perfect in my living room and not at all like a media cabinet.
