Decluttering the Bathroom

What I'd like to call this post is "un-fucking the bathroom," because, let's be real, my bathroom was a tragedy. Between things being knocked over and emptying into the bottom of the drawers, and my mom deciding to reorganize everything I own (I know, I'm moving out soon, really.) the bathroom was...


Ground zero.

When I'm stressed out I clean. Deep clean. Like, take everything apart and put everything back together, so here's my declutter "advice."


  • Organize: Things you want to throw out, things you want to keep. Then, hair products, make up, lotions, shampoo, etc... whatever you want.
  • Condense: If you're anything like me, your bathroom (and everywhere) is a bobby pin graveyard. My bathroom drawers were basically just piles of hairpins, cotton balls, and hairties... so I grouped them all as I found them, and put them in boxes, and then put them together. NEVER AGAIN WILL I SEARCH FOR BOBBY PINS! ... Well not for a week at least.
  • Throw Out: See things you thought you'd gotten rid of years ago? Throw it out. That thing you MIGHT decide to use? You probably won't. Throw it out. Anything I had to question whether or not I'd use it, I threw out, save for some fancy face wash I'd been talked into from some mall kiosk workers. It cost an arm and a leg, I'll save it if I want.
It DID take me the better part of an hour and I came out of it in a crazy rage - which could be because of my stress level... But, the ordeal was a definite success:


Ahhh, sweet organization.
