Good question! This is what I was referring to: www.containerstore.com/s/kitchen/cabinet-organizers/undershelf-baskets/12d?productId=10000700 It comes in silver as well. They are great for wooden shelves and I can see storing socks, underwear, tights, bras, sports bras, bathing suits, etc. Basically anything small! It's made for the kitchen but can be used in the closet as well. The part that slides on the shelf is adjustable if your shelves after slightly thicker/thinner. I hope that helps!

I too like many others have said here have missed Alejandra's videos, but somehow these new videos seem different. I often watch some of her older videos to reinforce some of the great ideas I already learned from her. Those videos seemed to be more structured organization, with containers and labels (in closets, cabinets and drawers). I guess Alejandra is down sizing. She mentioned something to that effect in a previous video when mentioning the move to their new farm house. I still am glad she has returned with weekly videos. I have previously learned how to organize my bathroom cabinet (below sink), coat closet (and other closets with non -plastic, matching hangers) and just other areas of my home on a budget (Alejandra gave dollar store ideas). All her older videos seemed a little OCD to perfection which I loved. So many areas of my home ( I live in a 1 bedroom apt) are so well organized due to her numerous ideas. Thank you for that Alejandra. Maybe I now need to take a hint from Alejandra on down sizing.
