Box It In
It’s not uncommon for last month’s magazines to migrate to the bathroom for toilet reading. Rather than tossing them on the floor, store them properly. Skip the cardboard holders and build a set of quality magazine storage bins that won’t fall apart from exposure to bathroom moisture. And, depending on their width, magazine holders offer a neat way to keep a few extra rolls of toilet paper nearby, as well.
