I'm living in a 1-bedroom apartment with limited storage space, and it's a challenge to find a good way to organize all my plant supplies. Right now, they're just scattered everywhere, especially extra pots. How do you all store your plant supplies effectively? Any tips or tricks to make the most of a small space?

I use plastic bins to separate my tools and supplies. I also clean and stack my pots neatly. A few small containers from the dollar store help keep everything organized and are stackable, which really saves space!
I've got a decent amount of closet space in my 1-bedroom too! I’ve dedicated one closet for all my extra pots, and for my other supplies, I set up a multi-layer basket storage system in a different closet. It keeps everything organized and easy to access!
For my limited space, I use a plastic tote on the porch for all my supplies. If things don't fit, I know I have too much! Also, I honestly assess how many extra pots I really need. Sometimes you just have to be practical, right?
I found some fabric boxes at IKEA, and I use those to store my plant stuff around the house. One box for pots, another for pot liners and tools, and a third one for fertilizers. Oh, and I keep my homemade soil in a big plastic tote with a locking lid at the bottom of my stairs. It helps keep everything close together!
