Week #12 – THE BATHROOM
We are almost finished with the challenge. Yay! This week we are organizing the bathroom. Your goal for the week is to purge, clean, and organize your bathrooms. Have fun. It will be a rewarding week for you!!
THE PROCESS
1. Take a picture of your space “before” you start & share it with the facebook group here.
2. Gather up 2 baskets: Keep, Trash.
3. Sort & purge! Go through everything in the drawers, closets, and counters. Throw out empty bottles & trash.
4. Clean! Now you are ready to give it a good cleaning. Scrub the bath, shower, toilets, counters, mirror and cabinets.
5. Organize! Now its time to organize. Use baskets, bins, drawer organizers, etc… Containerize everything you can. It makes a big difference.
6. Now take an “after” picture. You’re done! Come back here to share your hard work.
MY BATHROOM
I have not finished with my bathroom, but for the purpose of showing you how I organize, it will do for now. 😉
My “fall” shower.
Baskets, baskets, baskets!
I used Martha Stewart folder labels for these containers.
I love to use baskets and bins for everything!!
I purchased these plastic containers at Target.
SPONSOR

I’ve been following this blog ever since I felt the “nesting” urge in my pregnancy, and this hits the spot literally every time! I love it, and your bathroom is slightly similar to mine, which inspires me that much more! Thanks for all you share!
Wow! I love your bathroom especially the black details against the white. I really like all of the baskets too – that towel one in the bathtub is my fav! 😉
It looks black but its oil rubbed bronze. I love it too!!
Are those towels brand new? If not, how on earth do you keep them so white?????
🙂

Nature Bright by Shaklee keeps my towels clean. I only use white towels!! 😉
I love the wire baskets with the chalk board tags. Where did you get them? Thank you as always for your great ideas. I am always in awe of our talent
Those are from TJ Maxx! I still see them available!!!
I love your house can and please tell me Where do you bought your bins?

Beautiful bathroom, I love your attention to details and the contrast of colors. Stunning!
Where did you get your basket on your tub.
Beautiful as always!!
You have the cutest baskets.
I love reading your blog, so many great ideas and your house is beautiful. Where did you get your green rug, been looking for one like that for my kitchen and cannot find one anywhere.
Its from the kitchen section of target. 🙂
I love the entire space! You and I have very similar taste in style…classic, clean, yet vintage….<3 I too love using bins and baskets as much as possible. I will have to go check Target and TJMaxx for the metal bins and you said you also found the mini chalkboard tags there too? Where did you purchase your laundry hamper? I love the color 🙂 Thanks for sharing!!
The laundry hamper is from either target or walmart (I forget which one). The chalkboard tags are from a local store here but I have similar ones in my store on my blog. 😉
Beautiful Bathroom!!! Where did you get the shelf with your cotton balls and q-tips.
Its from TJ MAxx. They still have them. 😉
TJ Maxx. 🙂
I am obsessed with your organization series!! So inspiring!! I love the basket on your bathtub for towels!! I have been trying to solve the dilemma of having towels handy after baths and just love your basket! Where did you get it??
Its from Hobby Lobby. 😉
i have been to hobby lobby so many times looking for that basket, I cannot find it, I love it.
Love the bathroom. Where did you get that green rug, it’s so cute?
They are from Target in the kitchen isle.
The rug came from Target? Is it one long rug? I have looked forever for something like that. The one we have now I purchased a long time ago and really needs to go. Plus it still was never quite long enough for the double sinks.
Its 2 small rugs. 🙂
I have been to hobby lobby so many times looking for that cute basket. I cannot find it.
Love it! What’s your favorite brand of white towels? Looking to invest in our own 🙂
I just get the cheap ones from Target (The RE brand??). They work great.
Love your bathroom! I have shower organizer as yours but mine are small ones and they are great! I wanted to ask you two things, I almost buy green rug same as yours but they are pretty slipping so do you have problem to keep them stay on? And the chalkboard on wall where do you get them? Thanks!
Christy, I use a rubber mat under each rug to keep them in place. You can purchase them anywhere. Also the chalkboard is from a local store here in Charleston sc. I dont think its available anywhere else. 😉
I wonder what kind of rubber mat to put under? I’m asking because I always had rug that attached with rubber on back. Also do you cut to fit into rug? Thanks again!
There are actually “rug” rubber mats or you can use the kitchen rubber dish liners that are in the “contact” paper section. Yes you can cut it to fit. 😉
Can I just say I love the fact that you actually included a picture of your “girlie” items all organized as well? 🙂
Thank you for inspiring me to organize my master bath today! I love taking your creativity and putting my own twist on it. You make organizing fun!
i love your rattan(?) roman blinds in the bathroom. Where did you pirchase them?
Home Depot. 🙂
I love your new home!!! I love the cotton wreath hanging in your bathroom and wondered where you purchased it?
Valerie, Its from a local store in SC. 🙂 Thank you!
Where did you get the rug in your bathroom?? I love it!
Can you tell me about your bathroom tile? Did you install it and if so, was it inexpensive?
Where did you get the shower caddy??? I wish to have my home as yours one day 😉
I would also love to know where you got your shower caddy? It’s nice and big.
I am very intrigued and inspired by your series. I have been unsuccessful in joining the challenge and was wondering how to get the full 14 days if organizing program. The pictures, how to’s and where to purchase is awesome! Please advise–thanks!!

I love your series – it has been the reason I am getting my house in order! 🙂 Where did you get the large wicker baskets in your bathroom closet? They look so spacious and I think I could really use those in one of my closets. Thank you for a great job and your bathroom looks lovely!
Target. 🙂
I love how neat and organized your bathroom closet is. I have to get my bathroom closet organized!
I LOVE your bathroom. Could you please tell me where you got your white containers for your toothbrushes, etc.?? Also the white plate for your Origins supplies? Beautiful!
