'Shrine' by architect Sigund Larsen is a time capsule on steroids.

Plastic Bag Storage: Another Way
Repurposing a wet-naps container for at home and on the go plastic bags.
Temporary Storage
I've been doing a form of this for years now, and i can't tell you how much it helps. Keeping a donation box is handy to get your rejects out of your daily space; I generally have a pile on the go of things people have left behind or i've borrowed; a gift box is super handy to keep some all-types extra gifts for impromptu dinner party or forgotten birthdays; and sure if you're an avid library user a dedicated box make sense. (my judge-y self would probably stay clear of this 'functional' set up, and go for something a little more 'wicker & wood')
Fancy tins for your fridge
i am a sucker for antique-looking tins. I always rest easy knowing that the ludicrous amount i spent on these luxury mints won't be in vain as I'll be able to use the tins again. Phew!Martha suggests affixing magnets to them so they can provide mini storage on your fridge.... I can picture pens, coupons, stamps...and the magnet also holds your notes! Delightful.
Bag-iture
The people in my life might joke that this is what I carry around with me on a daily basis, but the Home Traveller by Anne Lorenz is meant to stay indoors; providing a quick getaway for all your stuff when impromptu guests arrive.
Show-off Snowshoes
Show everyone how popular you are by displaying your holiday cards with repurposed winter gear.
Share and Share Alike
Pass on your used books through Joan Rojeski's Primer B mailbox, which allows neighbors to share notes and books via open slots in their mailboxes.
Surf Curve Changebag
This appears to be a pretty sound way to keep your wet suit, and accompanying sand, contained.
Down, Pinch, Place, Release
Can anyone guess what this is? It's the perfect cake cutter/server by Magisso.
