A drawer divided
A slotted box is perfect for storing everything you take off or put on right before bed. such as eyeglasses, lip balm, night cream, and jewelry. Try this pale green Amenities Box (Asiaphile, $55). Or create your own by placing a utensil divider inside a shallow basket.

Clutter-busting boxes (that won't break your budget!)
Far East flair
Toss business cards, receipts, or loose change in a handcrafted Tan Bamboo Rectangular Box.
Colorful cubes
