Bathroom Cabinet Overhaul

Two years ago I reorganized my master bathroom cabinets by adding shelf space and various sized baskets. Since then we have moved our bedroom upstairs and so repurposed the bathroom. Without having clear purpose for the cabinet and with my hair stuff collection growing, the cabinet became a disaster once again.


I hate that. Couldn’t deal with it. Had to do something about it. So the first thing I did was to organize my hair stuff. It was a mishmash of everything in a little basket. I wracked my brain for some sort of cheap containers to keep it all separate yet fit in the basket. I came up with using the baby food containers. It worked great! I sorted the hair ties, barrettes, bobby pins, etc into separate containers. Now I could just grab the container I need and not have to wade through it all.









This wasn’t enough. I had our “extras” stored in the cabinet along with other miscellaneous items and they needed organization. This meant I needed drawers of varying sizes. First I measured height, depth, width. Next I went in search of the perfect drawer set. I could not find one that was short enough with different drawer sizes, so I purchased one that was too tall and took off one of the smaller drawers, making it a perfect fit!



Now my extras, cotton balls, q-tips and other miscellaneous fit beautifully in the cabinet. No more disaster!

To improve my hair bob situation I used the top drawer specifically for that stuff. I kept the baby food container but taped the tops to the drawer to keep them from sliding around. The containers sit in the lids so I can grab them out easily. I love my drawer!
