The Russian doll principle: put a lid on it and off you go!

How do you tidy up your home? Put everything in a box.

Primo, boxes are used to store a whole host of small, bulky items. Secondly, they stand on their own, as they are distinguished by their aesthetic appeal and functionality.
Like nesting dolls, which are decorative and hollow - thus offering storage space within them - there are boxes of all sizes that stack on top of each other.

For a better overview, I store pretty objects, such as necklaces, in transparent boxes and less pretty things, such as tampons, in opaque containers. I like to stack boxes on top of each other. At home, they come in different colours and take on an oval shape, a bit like matryoshkas.
.
And just as well, the Galaxus range is superbly stocked. I've found glass, ceramic and cardboard boxes. In fact, I've got a whole range of trendy storage options for you to choose from.

These boxes aren't just for storing sugar. They protect your small items from dust and, to save space, can be stacked. For the little biscuits, nuts and other olives that we enjoy at aperitif time, I choose bowls with lids to keep the leftovers for a couple of extra days if necessary.

My favourite thing is storage units that can be stacked. They dress up and enhance a shelf with their different colours. And as I tend to choose white or black for my furniture, these boxes allow me to brighten up my interior. On a desk, they take up little space and keep paperclips and other stationery accessories within easy reach.
