My Under The Sink Organization

This week it is MY GOAL to start getting my house organized! Especially my kitchen, since although we moved into a bigger house, the kitchen is smaller. So I have to find a way to make do. Thanks to Pinterest, I finally did it!  My "under-the-sink" area was a disaster area. I was just throwing my cleaning products under there, along with extra vases, bags from the grocery store that I "may need one day," the fly swatters, the pushpins, nails, & everything else that I didnt have anywhere to put. So I went to Wal-Mart, bought a plastic shoe rack & let the magic begin! First, I had to cut the shoe rack to fit the inside of my cabinet doors (which meant only using three rows of the shoe rack & cutting off a side piece because it was too wide. I just used push pins to hang! And ta-daaa! All my cleaning products hung, organized & out of the way!



I didnt label the pockets, I thought that was going a little too far, & I may need to move things around a bit later. Instead of wasting the two rows that I had to cut off because the rack was too wide, I just hung those on the inside of the wall inside the cabinet. Then I took a tray (that was thrown in this cabinet along with all the other stuff) & placed all the extra little things on it, & lined the extra vases up in the back!





Then I hung a small bag on the other side of the other side for my scrubby brushes, brillo pads & vacuum cleaner bags. I always keep a small fire extinguisher in the cabinet here...because you never know!  :) I even put my fly swatter (that my mother in law made me to match my kitchen-sunflowers!) in a pretty vase!


I wish I would have taken a before shot so that you could see the difference. But imagine everything you see here, just thrown inside. Basically. I show everyone thiswhen they come over because I think its amazing. Its the little things in life!  :)
