3 Steps How To Organize Your Bathroom

When I saw this on Keri's blog I knew that I wanted to participate, stuff like this kicks my butt into gear and gets stuff done! This week we're working on bathrooms. Truth be told I did this declutter last year for my year of organization, but never posted pictures, so I thought this would be that perfect opportunity.

So here is where I started:

Pretty bad right? Let me give you a close up.

Okay here is what you need to clean out your bathroom. Remember it's always going to get worse before it gets better.

Step 1:

Take every single thing out of the cabinets. I tried to categorize as I was cleaning out, and then also purging, you know things that had a layer of oil or was a funky color went immediate in the trash.

Step 2:

Figure out what sort of storage you want. Ideally this step is done after you figure out what you have and what you need. But for my purposes, I knew I needed more drawers, so I bought this drawer system, and then bought a variety of different size drawers to go in it, so I could pick and choose. This worked out perfect for me. I just returned what I didn't use.

Next time to organize what you are going to potentially want in each drawer.

Step 3:

Make drawers and start organizing. I know easier said than done, but it can be done!

And then 6 hours later you're done! Okay it took me that long, but I did stop to make dinner and feed the kids...you know parenting stuff.

Now I just need to get our cabinets re-stained and I would be golden.

I know easier said than done, but in reality, when you're done you just feel better about yourself.

I also made a video on how exactly I organized my bathroom, in case you are a more of a show and tell type person.
