Sometimes when you’re registering, a gift might catch your eye and you think to yourself, "But how many times am I really going to use that?" It's actually a very important thing to consider, especially if you live in a small apartment and your storage space is either limited or non-existent (hello, New Yorkers). In such a case, you need to make the most out of every product you put in your home.

That’s why we created this list of presents that serve more than just one purpose.
