Hey all! Hope everyone is doing good with the mini challenges. This is the first time I've done little organizing projects throughout the house and I was a bit skeptical that it'd make a difference but it does! Its really nice to open a cabinet and go straight for what you need or open the fridge and find the exact veggie you need for a recipe without digging. Anyway, I didn't have time yesterday to organize my laundry room but I did it today and it really needed it!
Ok so this cabinet isn't bad .. There was only three items in there but I was still able to make some changes.
This cabinet is above the washer and now houses: laundry detergent, dryer sheets, bleach, and a container where I store cleaning rags.
Ok so this picture doesn't do this cabinet justice. There is a big blind spot behind where the Mr. Clean is because there was a lot in there and it was so messy looking. My intentions were to put a shelf to use more vertical space but I wasn't able to. This cabinet sits high on the wall & its deep and since I'm short, I can't reach anything behind that Mr. Clean.
So this was the solution. I put all the cleaners in a container I already had except the Mr. Clean & Gain Febreeze (Can you tell I'm addicted to Gain?). The huge bottle of vinegar is also back there along with an iron that I don't use very much. Now I can just pull the container down, grab what I need, and put it back. Before I had to ask the hubby to get something or use a chair.
I'm usually pretty good about keeping the dryer clear of junk but stuff happens, right? Its been a catch all for a few days but not anymore!
Now its cleared & my cabinets are more organized then before.
I can't wait to see everyone else's before and afters of their laundry rooms. I find its common for laundry rooms to become a hotspot for junk and a lot of people wouldn't even think to organize it but it really makes doing laundry easier and maybe a tad bit fun. Ok not really but laundry is a fact of life.
Happy Organizing!
