Who doesn’t love an organized vanity cabinet? These spaces can be very challenging to organize due to plumbing. The key to maximizing this awkward space is to take accurate measurements and find products that will maximize the depth and height in the space around the plumbing. I love using these Like-It drawers from @thecontainerstore because they are extra deep and come in all different shapes and sizes to work in awkward spaces.

Sometimes organizing is like putting together the pieces of a puzzle. You just have to keep trying until you find the right piece that fits perfectly!

Happy Organizing!

Linen closets can be such a lifesaver when it come

Linen closets can be such a lifesaver when it comes to organizing a bathroom. To organize all of my clients nursing essentials I used a combination of stackable acrylic drawers, an Elfa over the door system which she already had, open front bins for towels and stackable bins for the floor. Now everything is organized by category and easy to find.

When organizing a space like this be sure and utilize every inch of space including the door and the floor. Measure and then find products that maximize your specific space. It makes a huge difference!

This linen closet recently got a major makeover and I’m loving the updated look! I used open front Like-It bins from @thecontainerstore which is my favorite way to store towels and bed linens. These bins allow items to be visible and easy to grab while keeping them from falling all over the place. They come in several shapes and sizes and are perfect for linen closets.

In the bottom of the closet I used Elfa drawers for backstock skin care and toiletry products. Two units fit perfectly in the space and allowed all of my client’s products to be organized so she can easily find what she needs.

Day 2 - The kitchen and pantry and complete so today I’m moving onto the closet & bathroom. Swipe to the end for pics of both spaces. My client already has some great organizational systems in place so I’m going to rearrange some areas to make more space and add some extra storage drawers and containers in the bathroom. My goal is to have both spaces in good shape in time for the weekend!

Are you in the Nashville area and are moving? I would be happy to help you unpack and get organized and settled in your new home!

My project for the next couple of days - getting my client unpacked and organized in her new apartment. It’s so much easier setting up organizing systems from the beginning. I’m going to tackle the pantry and kitchen today so hopefully she can start to feel like this is her home.

Are you intimidated by your deep kitchen drawers a

Are you intimidated by your deep kitchen drawers and don’t know how to best utilize the space? These Like-It Brick organizing bins from @thecontainerstore can help transform your deep kitchen drawers into organized spaces. I used them for this medium sized kitchen drawer to organize kitchen tools and utensils that are not used very often but that still need to be kept on hand. They come in all different shapes and sizes, and best of all, you can use dividers in them which is a total game changer! They worked beautifully in this deep drawer which is 5 inches tall.

It’s all about finding the right organizing tools to fit the space that you’re working in. Be sure and take measurements with you when you are shopping so that you will purchase the right times of containers. It makes a huge difference!

This patio storage closet got a quick makeover thi

This patio storage closet got a quick makeover this week and now has room to spare! It’s amazing what a shelving unit and some garage wall hooks can do. I removed everything from the closet and arranged the shelves to accommodate the larger items on bottom and awkward long skinny items on top (hockey sticks and extra car accessories). I used air tight/water tight totes to group smaller items. Lastly, I used screw in wall hooks to hang all of the lawn chairs to get them up off the floor. Now, you can easily grab what you need and see what you have. Mission accomplished!

When I initially saw this massive deep cabinet dur

When I initially saw this massive deep cabinet during my consultation, I immediately could see it being used for pots, pans and bakeware. I made my vision a reality by using two of my favorite pot and pan holders from @amazon that have adjustable dividers, so you can customize it to accommodate any size pot/pan. Previously, all the pots and pans had been stacked in drawers and now my client can easily grab what she needs when she is ready to make a meal. She was absolutely in love with this new setup. Large deep cabinets can be a game changer. You just need the right organizing products to maximize the space.

One of my favorite ways to utilize awkward corners

One of my favorite ways to utilize awkward corners in pantries are to use turntables. They are perfect for bottles like oils and vinegars and allow easy access to corners where things tend to get lost. These large turntables from @target are my favorite! They worked perfectly in this pantry to maximize the large back corner. Turntables come in all different shapes and sizes and are an inexpensive way to utilize space in so many different areas of your home from your pantry, fridge, cabinets and even the garage!

Don’t you just love a perfectly organized drawer

Don’t you just love a perfectly organized drawer? My client’s bathroom drawers had gotten out of control. I took everything out, sorted like with like and installed drawer organizers that fit the drawer. These two divided deep drawer organizers by @idlivesimply are my favorites. They’re perfect for deep drawers and work beautifully to organize smaller items like makeup, skin care and hair accessories. Being able to find what you need quickly makes it a lot easier to get ready in the morning when you are in a rush and don’t have time to look for things.

When purchasing drawer organizers, or any other organizing products, be sure and measure the space before you purchase items. Doing your homework first will ensure that you buy the appropriate size products for your space.

It’s almost time to dust off those swimsuits! When I organized this closet last fall I made sure to store my client’s swimsuits where she could easily find them since they spend a lot of time at their pool during the summer. These fun metal baskets by @mdesign provided great storage in her closet for smaller items. She wanted to be able to see what was in the basket so these worked perfectly. It’s time for some fun in the sun!

Backstock storage may not be pretty but it’s a necessity so you can see what you have and what you need to purchase. I used Elfa drawers to store everyday essentials and skin care products. Like-It Brick containers with dividers from @thecontainerstore helped organize the items by category. The drawers fit perfectly in my clients linen closet and are tucked out of the way but are easily accessible. Now she will be able to quickly grab what she needs.

It’s amazing what a difference a good pant hanger can make in a closet. These rubber grip pant hangers from @amazon are my favorite. By being consistent with the way you fold and hang your pants, it creates a clean straight line. Clients get giddy when they see the magic these hangers create! Always remember sometime small simple changes can make a big difference!

I recently helped a client unpack and organize her

I recently helped a client unpack and organize her new apartment after a cross-country move. She has a large closet that needed some help and the end result revealed a fabulous space she can now be proud to show off. I switched out her hangers, added 2 Elfa drawer units, sweater bins and hung up her bags on total hooks. I also added 2 shoe racks for the shoes that she wears most often and stored the rest in my favorite clear shoe boxes from The Container Store. Now she can easily find what she needs to get ready each day in this beautiful closet!

Tip Tuesday!! If you are looking for a quick refresh of your closet, considered switching out all of your hangers for a slim velvet lined hanger. It sounds simple but you wouldn’t believe what a huge difference it makes.

This closet is the perfect example of what a big impact hangers can make. The clothes on the right are a mismatched mix of plastic and wooden. The clothes on the left have already been switched out with velvet hangers. They instantly create a clean, uniform look for your closet. It’s a total game changer! Try it out and tell me what you think!

My favorite velvet hangers are only $40 on Amazon for a box of 100 and come in all different colors and finishes for the metal part, like silver, black and rose gold. You can customize your look to match your personality and style.

Happy Organizing!

I’ve been loving these new open front bins from the Brightroom collection @target. They are a great size for pantry shelves and allow you to easily reach in and grab what you need without having to pull the entire bin off the shelf. These pantry shelves were the perfect depth to use these bins and my client loved them! An added bonus is they are only $12 each, which is a great price point for this size acrylic bin.

Elfa drawers to the rescue! This bedroom needed so

Elfa drawers to the rescue! This bedroom needed some extra storage so I brought in a medium Elfa drawer unit to add some additional drawers. As you can see they fit perfectly in the space and provided much needed drawer space. These drawer units come in all different shapes, sizes and finishes and can be customized to fit your needs. The best thing about them is they are very versatile. If your needs change they can easily be repurposed in another area of your home. I highly recommend these when you need some additional storage space. These can be purchased at @thecontainerstore

Happy organizing!
