It's not often that I have top-secret papers that need to be shredded, but it happens occasionally. I can't justify cluttering up my house with a clunky shredder, or spending the dollars on something I rarely use. I would, however, throw down for a pair of The Container Store Stainless Steel Shredding Scissors ($8.99).

The Container Store is holding its Annual Storewide Shelving Sale, offering 25 percent off all of their shelving, including the Elfa system, InterMetro, Metro Commercial, modular steel cubes, solid mahogany modular cubes, Ladoro, freestanding, Janus, and wall-mounted shelving. Looking at the pile of shoes in my closet is pretty much akin to looking into a toy box, so I think I'll take advantage of this sale and get my footwear under control with some affordable shelving! Here are a few things I wouldn't mind taking home from the sale:

You might have seen the Design House Stockholm Carrie Shopping Basket when I featured it in my Not Your Grandma's Lace Trend Alert, or even snuck a peek of it used as a magazine holder in my very own house. I must admit, I shelled out $44 for the basket from Zinc Details — kind of a lot for my shelter mag storage, but I couldn't resist! When I caught it selling for $37 at Unica Home, I felt a little cheated.

The Container Store is currently running its Summer sale, offering great discounts on over 100 products for organization and storage. I run wild whenever I enter The Container Store, wanting to take home everything I touch. Unfortunately, I just can't bring myself to drop big dollars on organization items.

This year you've probably invested in a couple gorgeous sandals, like this Franco Sarto Marquis Thong Sandal ($80). Why hide their fabulousness? There's a way to showcase your prettiest Summer sandals when you're not wearing them without making a mess of your closet.

A friend asked me to find her a handsome wine rack for her bedroom because her recent grad roommates consistently drink any "booze" she leaves in the kitchen. Natch, I agreed. There are plenty of stylish wine racks, so I knew it wouldn't be a difficult task.

If you're anything like me, your bangle collection is taking over your entire vanity. It's hard to find a decent home for bangles, especially if they're overly chunky, like these Ciro Collecizone Dimensional Bangles ($48 each). And since they're so pretty, I feel bad sticking them in drawers where no one will see them (and I will forget about them).

All right, who needs some shelves? I, for one, have a few pending organizational projects at home, so I'm psyched that The Container Store is now hosting its annual shelving sale.
The event slashes 25 percent off everything in the retailer's shelf collection, which, if you've been to the Container Store, you know is quite extensive. 
I'm really not as organized as I'd like to be, but if there's one organizational activity I can get excited about, it's filing papers. I don't know why, but there's just something very satisfying about making my way through a stack of documents and filing them all away in the proper folders.
But I know most of us could use some more motivation to get everything in order, so why not get some fashionable file folders to help you along?
