Abstract: An organizing device (10) includes a platform (12) having a first end (2), a second end (4), and a channel (20) extending along at least a portion of the platform (12) between the first end (2) and the second end (4). A plurality of securing members (28) are coupled to the platform (12) using the channel (20). Each securing member (28) exerts a securing force upon one or more adjacent securing members (28). The device (10) secures an item (31) placed between adjacent securing members (28) using the securing force. The plurality of securing members (28) includes a hooking element (46) having a hook (86) and operable to support an item using the hook (86).
