Try and have a place for everything, and whenever you have to set it down, put it in its right spot. For example, if you're putting your school books down, put it on your desk and no where else.
If you have something that you carry around with you everywhere (like a cellphone) that is more likely to be put down more often, have a spot in each room where you'd put it. Ex: On the kitchen table, the coffee table in the living room, on your bed in your room..
That way, it'll always be in a spot you know where to find it. It could be hard to get use to in the beginning because you're use to just putting it down wherever is more convient, but if you struggle with remembering, try it :)

I get this like all the time and there is no easy way to stop it. Sometimes, I would just literally forget that I'd been in that particular room and that is just not fun. So what I do is that I ensure that I look in all the 'usual places' where ever it may be and see if it is there, then if it's not, then I would just try and remember what I did before I put the article down.
For example, let's say I was watching TV and the phone rang downstairs, I would go and answer, leave the remote downstairs and come back to the living room to find it missing, then I would try and remember where I last had it and in this case, it would be downstairs.
So just try and re-trace your steps and try and remember even the little details because they could be important.
Not always full proof, but at least it's worth a shot.
Sorry if it isn't what you were expecting,
