I bought a towel rack that stands over your toilet, got some clear fiberglass and cut it to fit each shelf so nothing would fall through the racks, and put all of my makeup and hair products! I did the same thing Jen did for toothbrushes...found a really cute soap dispenser and container (more like a pretty cup with a lid) at Wal Mart, took the lid off the container and plopped my toothbrush and toothpaste both in it!

Then I have two clear plastic shoebox containers that go in the closet, one for "eyes & brushes", the other for "face & lips"... divided that way only because that's how it split most evenly. So when seasons change, I'm going out, or I want a change, I go "shopping" in my two storage bins. I do try to be mindful of exp dates too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-47929446157836239152012-05-01T21:21:34.428-05:002012-05-01T21:21:34.428-05:00I came across your blog via Pinterest and I heart ...I came across your blog via Pinterest and I heart it! To organize my makeup I snagged some faux leather desk organizing accessories from tj maxx which happened to match my bathroom decor colors. I use the tall pencil-holder one with several compartments for brushes and eyeliner, and the short one with a couple of square compartments to hold lipstick, compacts, and concealer. While the inside light blue color of them has faded slightly due to repeated cleaning, they seem to be holding up great after almost 2 years of daily use!Carrienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-47578260660749055242012-02-28T19:55:04.907-06:002012-02-28T19:55:04.907-06:00hey. i have a ton of makeup and one night i just s...hey. i have a ton of makeup and one night i just sat down and went through all of it. i seperated it into sections like eyeliner and mascara together, eyeshadows, and lipsticks, ect. after that i put my most used makeup into cans and bins(tiny little baskets). i put everything i didnt use that often (halloween makeup and such) into a clear plastic sewing organizer. the little compartments ment for buttons were perfect for eyeshadows. after organizing it by height on a shelf in my boookcase (in my room). the finished look downsized my makeup clutter extravagantly.katnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-11315149024092048382012-02-16T16:09:48.831-06:002012-02-16T16:09:48.831-06:00It was actually from Target a few years back.

As soon as I have a little extra dinero to invest in that space, I am heading right to Ikea to purchase some pieces from the ANTONIUS system. {http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/categories/departments/secondary_storage/11468/} I think these pieces would be an incredible solution for under the stairs, since it comes in a variety of heights {start with tall ones at the high part of the closet and work your way to lower units as the space shrinks. They also have a ton of basket options. <br /><br />Hope that helps a little. For now, we use plastic shelving in the tall section and rubbermaid bins towards the back. I find this works for now, but the bottom bins are very hard to get to since we have to remove all the ones stacked on top to get to it.<br /><br />xoxo!<br />JenIHeart Organizinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084013302005288836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-5927535322173200652010-11-21T12:57:44.203-06:002010-11-21T12:57:44.203-06:00Hi Heather!

By tossing it and only keeping exactly what I use each day, it's so much more simple. I thought about the "whys" when I tossed each item, outdated and wrong colors were 90% of the reasons for me. If you are having trouble parting with the good stuff, keep it or donate it to a friend that could/would use it if there is a reason you don't.<br /><br />xoxo!<br />JenIHeart Organizinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084013302005288836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864666002840991252.post-28990295107467108512010-11-21T11:49:23.670-06:002010-11-21T11:49:23.670-06:00I have a question for you.

Fits very nicely under my cabinet and I don't pull a muscle every time I get it out like I did with my gigantic Caboodle full of unused product!
