Bathroom De Clutter Challenge

Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend. We had a very productive weekend, finishing off various little projects around the house and in between made time to relax and enjoy ourselves too.

Today we are talking Bathrooms. We only have one bathroom in our house and its tiny, so the more reason to keep it organise and de clutter. Challenge of the month is to organise under the Bathroom sink, that means throw away unnecessary items...promise it wont take you long about 30 mins.

Start off by taking everything out from under the sink and drawers (we dont have any drawers).

Next sort and bin...

Tossed any products that have expired
group same products/items together for easy visual count (Hair products, pampering, make up, dental hygiene, etc
gather some baskets and containers and place for example all your hair products in one basket/container (shampoo/conditioner, hair oils, hair spray etc) Do the same for your pampering products, dental needs and make up (if you dont keep make up in the Bathroom, use your container for other items that you regularly use).

For your hair tools, you can create holders out of tin cans, glass jars, and pretty pots.Easier to grab and use.

Clean your cabinet thoroughly with a Bathroom cleaner or a homemade cleaner of half water, half vinegar in a spray bottle. Line your cabinet/drawers with pretty contact paper. I line the inside of our cabinets with a pretty turquoise paper to match some of the decor in our Bathroom.

Next place all your organised baskets and containers back under the Bathroom sink. You could label your baskets/containers if you want to ( i left mine without labels). Now you will find its so much easier to know where everything is, you dont need to pull everything out to find a particular product/item, saves you time, and takes about 30 min of your time, plus it cost almost nothing (only cost was a roll of contact paper).

Now here is the Before & After

Much better!!! Stay tuned! Coming up the Minimalist 30 piece Wardrobe Challenge!

Happy Organising!!!
