$5 Shoe Rack = Priceless Organization in the Bathroom

Suffering from not enough drawer and cabinet space in the bathroom can be an absolute nightmare for a family. You never have enough space to put the shampoo and soap, towels take up all of the cupboard space underneath the sink, the medicine cabinet is big enough for your toothpaste, deodorant and solutions but not much else, and the drawer is barely big enough to hold your curling iron and blow dryer! So what do you with the rest of the items needed for your bathroom?

I recently moved from a home with an incredible bathroom with a multitude of cabinets, drawers and closets to a hole in the wall barely big enough for me, the shower and toilet. Talk about horrifying! For the longest time I carted my bathroom items with me in a suit case, much to the amusement of the men folk in the house. Quite frankly, I don't need a whole heck of a lot, but it was more than would fit into the bathroom. Shoot, it was even too small for my brush!

Trying to escape the ridicule from my 8 year old, I decided to see if my handy dandy over-the-door shoe rack could come to my rescue. Sure enough, it did! I now have room for all of the little odds and ends for the bathroom, I no longer am made fun of because of my suit case, and it is not cluttering up my counter top! All I needed to do was run down to the store, pick up the $5 plastic over-the-door shoe rack and hang it up on the bathroom door.

Please use your good judgement on what to place in your new organizational system. For the most part, the sky is the limit and it knows no bounds, save for the items that won't fit.

Happy Organizing!
