How can I organize my bathroom?
Bathrooms are a lot of fun because I have never been to a bathroom in someone's house that has been the same as anyone else's. Everything that people keep in bathrooms from how they look to what kind of storage they have it's always different. The other thing about bathroom's is that people tend to have lot's and lot's of toiletries, especially women. Women love toiletries, I know I do. So, it's not enough to have one or two kinds of shampoo and conditioners, there will be five, six, or possible seven different kinds. There will also be different products of moisturizers, eye creams, and face creams. There is so many different things, and we don't necessarily want to throw any of them away or get rid of them. The main thing I tell people is to sort it out, and put aside the things you actually use everyday. Those are the things that will go in that drawer that's right at your fingertips or on that shelf that's right at your eye level. Those are the things you want to have easy access to and everything else will be put in a different way, because you really don't want to be shuffling through everything and trying to find that one lotion that you love so much. So, that is the key thing about bathrooms. You need to really weed out and create that little cluster of things that you use all the time. For example , your toothpaste, toothbrush, the little thing you wash your face, eye moisturiser, the floss or any sort of medicated lotions. Anything at all like that those are the things you want to have close at hand. Then, what we generally do is we go through all the cabinets and drawers. Then we divide things up in groups. Now, we have hair products. I like to keep hair products separately if I can because people tend to have a lot of them or grooming supplies like blow dryers, brushes, scissors, rollers or things like that. Then people like to buy things in bulk, so usually under the sink, I like to put a bin or a container and put all the extra toiletry items in that so if you're running out of something, well you look under the sink and if you have it, you will know it will be in this one container and then you don't have to search everywhere for it or just automatically even think you don't have it anymore. So, in a bathroom the key is to containerize everything to put it in groups. You know, as many groups as you can. Medications, first-aid items, hair products, and face products. You can even break up face products if you are one of those people who have so much stuff. Maybe you would do moisturizers or maybe you would do body washes and lotions in one and face creams and face washes in another. You really want to look at everything and break it up in these groups then find containers for each of these things. And again, you can put these in drawers in little groups so that way they are organized but they are not taking up one entire drawer for one thing. So you really just got to take a look at everything you got and work with that.
