When we moved into our home in Pa I used those same metal shelves as the OP's picture to organize allthe closets. It was a great way to use the space, which would otherwise have probably just had stacks of stuff in them that we could never find anything. I highly recommend doing this. However, it is not as inexpensive as it may seem. BTW - if you go to Home Depot or Lowes - they will cut the shelves for you - so you don't have that to worry about. Also - in DH's home office he had stacks of stuff on the floor everywhere so I put up shelves all the way around the room 18" down from the ceiling for him to put that stuff up out of the way. When we sold the house the new owners asked us to leave the sheles up.

At Ikea they sell small metal boxes with clear lids that have a magnet on the bottom - i have rubber bands, paperclips, and erasers, & thumb tacks all in them stuck to the side of my DH"s metal desk.my girlfriend keeps spices in hers right on the side of the fridge. another friend keeps her threads for her crosstitch projects in them , on the side of her metal sewing table.
