How is everyone's Summer going?
Right now, it is hot and humid and it's the kind of weather that leaves you feeling lethargic.
So lethargic, in fact, that I have let some areas of the house get a little messy, like say, the bathroom shelves.
Today, we are talking about our guest bathroom which is the smaller of the 2 bathrooms in our Mid-Century Modern home.
It still has the original green-blue-mint-type color.
I thought it was the right time to get going with the cleaning & organizing and I decided to share that story with you here!
I have to say the motivation came from this here SCOTT® 1100 Bath Tissue which I purchased from BJ's Wholesale Club.
When I got home, I figured, it's now or never because I have to put bath tissue somewhere!
I grew up in a household where SCOTT® Bath Tissue and their other paper products was what we always purchased. Coincidentally, we would purchase those and other household items at BJ's Wholesale Club! Whenever my family went there, it was like being a kid in a candy shop, there were so many cool gadgets and so many great deals to be had - it really made shopping fun.
Before we get into how I organized the bathroom, here is some information about SCOTT® 1100 Bath Tissue:
I don't know about you, but bathroom tissue is not something I like to run out of in the house. Whenever I get SCOTT® Bath Tissue, I know that I will not have to run out to the store as often to make that purchase which I find reassuring. Did you know that SCOTT® Bath Tissue rolls have never reduced sheet count and have kept consistent quality for over 100 years? At a $23.32 price point, I think that it's a great product and value.
Here are the steps I did to clean and organize my bathroom shelves as pictured below:
#1. Take everything off the shelves and throw away (or recycle, if applicable) any empty containers. Throw away any trash that you come across. This is the time to toss out any products or things that you do not like and do not serve you anymore. Minimalism is your friend right now!
#2. Depending on your bathroom shelf material, use appropriate cleaning products to dust off shelving.
#3. Sort all of your bathroom items by category, for example, keep all the shaving stuff together, all the tooth brushing stuff, hair products, soap, etc.
#4. If you do not already have various containers, find some around the house or purchase some to help you organize your bathroom items by category.
#5. Wipe off any items that have collected dust.
#6. Using your containers, put back all your items by category and place them back on your shelf. Arrange as you like.
#7. Marvel at your gloriously clean & organized bathroom shelves!
My mom always told me that everything "has it's place" so I think about that when I am cleaning and organizing.
I give objects their "home," if you will and it seems to help things stay more organized - at least for a little while.
I have 2 felt bins that keep various products all in one place so that the open shelves don't look cluttered and messy.
I love open shelves because they keep you honest about the stuff you have!
Many of the organization containers I have are ones that I have accumulated over time or were given to me at one point or another.
I keep like colors with like to get some coordination going.
Different shades of similar colors are okay and don't be afraid to throw in a different pattern here and there.
Reorganizing doesn't have to mean spending a lot of money, often times, there are things around the house that you already have that can be re-purposed or used in a different way.
Why not be resourceful?
It can be fun!

It's awesome that your mint-tiled walls have come back in style - mint is such a popular color now! Thanks for these bathroom organization ideas. #client
Sara says
Hi Carrie, thank you for your comment! We moved in here little over 2 years ago and have been "listening" to our house to guide any renovations. I like embracing what we have and making it our own over time 🙂
Janeth Paez says
Great tips, I love your set up. Organization is key! 🙂
Sara says
Hi Janeth, yes, we can all use a little organization from time to time for sure!
Jordan says
That green container (pale I think?) is a great way to give your reorg a nice contemporary look. I think lots of people want to go overboard on expensive products when a cheap or recycled one will often suffice. Great read!
Sara says
Thanks Jordan, I feel that there are so many creative possibilities with the things that we already have vs. buying new things.
Jordan says
So true!
