Classy tissue box cover with magnet closure... love them!
Color: Square Tissue Box-retro
These are gorgeous and match my decor. For some reason Kleenex boxes come in the most hideous, random prints and colors. I have these in every room, and they make the house look so much more classy and put-together.

Love this remote holder!
Color: Retro, Color: Retro
Very sturdy! Holds all my remotes…for bed, TV, light, fan, and flashlights. I am ALWAYS misplacing my remotes, so this item is a sanity saver. I put my remotes in a certain order: bed, TV, Light, fan and lastly two rechargeable flashlights. That way, even in the dark, I can find what I need. Yes, I’m older than dirt. This is a great looking, sturdy remote holder. You need it. And if you’re of a “certain age” and you misplace stuff you MUST have this remote holder!

Stylish & functional
Color: Retro, Color: Retro
This remote holder is great! 5 sections to place things. I have room for 3 remotes & 2 additional things. I discovered it’s the perfect place to store my glasses. I only use this pair to watch tv at night, but previously I could never find where I left them. No worries about that now! My nightstand is way less cluttered now & I don’t have to worry about my dogs ruining my glasses or running off with the remote!

Great for Minimalist Design!!!
Color: Grey
These really help keep us tidy!! The material is nice and it's not so big that it looks cluttered. It's located on a small end table between my husband and myself. It holds nail clippers, 2 remotes, pens, scissors, ear buds, and a charger. I bought another to have on the other end table.
