Organizing bliss

Anyone that knows me knows that I am constantly decluttering, looking for better ways to organize and compulsively straightening things. I know, I know, it's a sickness, but I get it HONESTLY. My mom and sis are worse than I am (though my husband might disagree with this, he has never lived with the two of them. It can get ugly, y'all !!!!)



Soooo, you can imagine my excitement and absolute GLEE when I discovered this little organizational tidbit buried in the Living section of our paper. I am constantly battling organization in the drawers in our bathroom. I've reorganized, regrouped, bought tiny containers, bought larger containers, etc. Still it is never up to my standards. But NO MORE!!! The article suggested that you think of the things in your bathroom as kitchen utensils/tools/items..... and buy things that you would to organize the kitchen-- such as utensil holders and MY FAVORITE thing of all..... the inner door organizer like the one I have in my kitchen (for Saran Wrap, Foil, sandwich bags, etc. )



You can use it in your bathroom for things like hairspray, hair products, etc. You know, those things that clutter up drawers and under cabinet areas and make people like me crazy!!

Works like a charm, and has made my weekend, I tell you!

Let me share....

Exhibit A




Exhibit B.....

Okay, you know I had to stick a couple of kid pics up!

Little Miss Anna Kate is Lovin' her new outfit from Uncle "John John", and my Andrew is stylin' in some shades (that might be some old ones of mine!) and his Baptist hymnal... totally his own idea (even if it is upside down)





Have a great weekend y'all!!

Happy Friday and Much Love,

Oh lol Jennifer! I just love those pictures of your children. What cuties.

And yey for organising, I practically salivate over baskets and little boxes in the shops...very soon I am going to have to declutter my house of baskets!

That is such a great idea! I have more of those than I can count installed in my pantry and it never even occured to me to put one in the bathroom.

And I love the pictures of the kids! We should get together again soon. I'll email you :)

I just found your page. I am a Mississippi girl, too. We seem to have a lot in common. I'd love to get to know you better.

What a great idea! My hairspray bottle is really tall, so it won't stand up in my basket I have for hair products in my drawer. It has been driving me nuts!

I can never make it through the organizing section at Wal-Mart. I always come home with a drawer or a shelf... And turntables ...turntables are the best organizational product ever made. I'm drooling over your little wire saran wrap/hairspray rack on the door.
