So our clean and sort dance is moving along.
The recent item out of the list-jar
was my upstairs makeup and
toiletries drawer .
Yikes!
I know many of us have
a bit of a Jones for makeup
supplies and facial care especially
as we age and those
wrinkles just won't stay away!
I am so guilty of this,
I always tend to look at the makeup and
lotions on sale.
To justify myself, I do use a lot.
My province is very dry and
we all should up our moisturizing quotient,
both men and women.
I even have my MOMD ( Man of my dreams)
consistently using moisturizer everyday!
1st I dumped everything out of the drawer.
Then I sorted by usage.
This works best for getting things
organized and actually making decisions.
If I categorise, then I can ridout
without feeling so guilty and
vacillating over every individual.
Also, I am big compiler.
I put like creams with like creams.
We always seem to end up with
duplicates of everything and
that always makes our storage unruly.
I do indeed cut open tubes of things
to get out the last little bit.
It's just my frugal nature.
The cleanout went pretty well!
I've got the items I use every day
in a nice wicker box,
backup supplies are tucked in a drawer,
out of the way but still available what I want them.
I even discarded some unused and
not going to be used items
to cut down on the clutter.
Big news is, I removed my daily supplies
from the countertop and it now lives in a drawer.
Makes the bathroom look much cleaner!
Since doing the bathroom counters
is part of our upcoming rental it's
nice to have that sorted and consolidated.
