Obsessed With Rubbermaid

by Erica

Confession: I am currently obsessed with putting things in Rubbermaid containers. It all started about a month ago when I decided that I didn't like the look of cardboard boxes. If it was in cardboard, I decided it needed to be in Rubbermaid. Here are my reasons for spending a lot of money on plastic:

Reason #1: Better protection from the elements. The elements being our cats
Reason #2: Rubbermaid looks better
Reason #3: Keeps the dust out
Reason #4: Sturdy and easily stackable
Reason #5: The Type A part of me of wanting the basement to look organized

There is a down side to this OCD behavior. Jason can't seem to find anything that he is looking for. Most of the time, I don't know where I put it either.

That's why I like to get the clear plastic ones, so you can see what's inside! The other benefit, is that it keeps the moisture out, which would be a big problem with cardboard...
