DREAM BATHROOM ORGANIZATION! | Alexandra Beuter

Feb 27, 2020
Hey guys, thanks for watching today's video. We are deep cleaning and reorganizing my

bathroom

and it is really bad right now. We've only lived here about two weeks so I have a lot to do and I knew I was holding up this video so I left it to you. It gets a little worse than it normally would, but I thought these videos are also a lot more satisfying when you start with a complete mess and that's what we're doing today, all I use in this video I just bought on Amazon yesterday or I think the day before I'll link it to everything and William will unpack it all.

I bought that shark type steam mop that many of you recommended and it was the most affordable as the recommended mop too so that was great but anyway I'm going to stop rambling and get started. I'm going to start over here because this is where the

bathroom

stuff starts. That's a baby swing and there are bathroom things in this bag. It's a nightmare up here. Anything in everything. There's nothing in the entire dresser except this drawer. It has our toothbrushes in it, I haven't had a chance to put the liners on so everything is new so we are very paranoid about messing something up so they are empty this is all I bought for the bathroom.

I'm going to unpack that super quick and then stuff down there that was in Chad's bathroom in the old house this is the closet right now there's hair extensions right here there's a big box of stuff there's another box another box there's two baskets everything it's literally we throw towels up here so we have a lot to go through I don't have a shower door yet I have to do it at some point everything here is fine it's hard for me to really mess up a shower in two weeks so I'm sorry. that's my hair down there the food that looks like let's take this out of the box and then we'll start one more thing.

I just realized. I didn't even show them where the bathroom is. I don't have a toilet paper holder and I don't know where to put the extra toilet paper, probably under the sink, so yes there is a toilet in the bathroom. Oh, what people told me, this is called a toilet. I've never heard that term in my entire life, so yeah, that's it, now let's unpack. Stumbling then and I still have you in my hand for all those nice words you said. Okay, time to grab a snack or a drink because this video is really long.

I know you love very comprehensive and in-depth videos, that's exactly what it is. I'm unboxing these organizers that are so cool that they basically have a slit in every inch and come with a bunch of inserts to separate them so I can resize each section whenever I want. I've never seen them. and now I'm addicted. I'm going to get tons of them for projects around the house. I can't tell you how many times I've bought an organizer and it's not exactly the size I need so I can change it and adjust it. as needed is going to be really nice and then I also order these organizers with two drawers on a table and they go under each of our dressers for any excess product that we want to put in there.
I'm taking out the recycling. Here and then I'm starting to line our drawers. I love this plastic coating. I used it in the pantry

organization

video I did a few days ago and it's solid sheets of plastic that have a texture to them, I guess that's the way to describe it. and if I ever spill something on this, I take it out of the drawer, wash it and put it back, so it takes me a while to measure it and put it everywhere, but it's worth it and I won't waste it. I also use a table organizer for my makeup.
I'm really paranoid about putting makeup back in these drawers. Everything is new so we are so paranoid because we have never had new cabinets and we don't want to mess them up. so I'll keep the makeup brushes in a bag. I'll put them in the drawers. I don't have anywhere else to store them, but we are trying to be very careful and make sure we have everything done the right way. The lining is the baskets, the organizers to really protect the wood in the cabinets and drawers and now we're almost there to my favorite little organizers that I was telling you about with the adjustable sections in three, two, one, well, here they are and again I do a tour at the end I show you what everything looks like, but how cool are these, they are very practical.
I love these things, I don't know why I've never seen them before, so I've got our toothbrushes, our toothpaste, I'm going to do it. Going through this bag that Chad has and I honestly think he probably has like 75% of this stuff that he doesn't even use, so going through that for him, next up is going to be all of our hair stuff and I'm showing you how. It's amazing that that basket fits here. I think I kept our spices in the kitchen in this last house, so it fits perfectly in this drawer for our hair things.
I was very, very happy with it and I do a little bit like everywhere in this video because everything is everywhere, so I had to do it that way. I won't drive to the stars. I'm going to keep almost all of my skincare products in the closet. Here this house has great storage space. I'm very grateful for that and I feel like I forget about the things that are under this sink, so skin care I need to read the label and see what I have, that's why I want to add a level in the cabinet. Now I'm going to build some.
Under dresser storage items I have my cup of coffee ready and I'm hitting the road tonight when I opened the boxes for these for the first time and realized they weren't together. I thought oh no, here we go, but it's only four steps, so it's really not that bad. I'm using scissors to screw them in, but please use a screwdriver and don't ruin the only solid pair of scissors you have in your house. He wasn't about to go down the stairs, rummage through everything, and find it like this. That's why I did it this way, but of course I don't recommend it and what I like about these is that I can still see everything in them.
I always try to buy organizers that I can see very well because I don't want to. shuffle everything, that's the goal of an organizer and I like these because they have a shelf on top. I think they were a dollar or two more than almost all the others that were similar to this one, but not the others. They have a shelf on top so yes I really recommend these and by the way if you ever shop on Amazon there are almost always a ton of listings for the exact same thing and I find that the third page of listings is always an un just short of the first page for the same article, so scroll down a bit and save a few bucks.
I hope that made sense, but I ran into it again and again, so I wanted to share that tip now that I'm starting to do it. the basket outside the closet and these were literally filled with anything, they were so disorganized when we moved out of our last house, bathrooms were the last thing, so we threw everything in bags, boxes and baskets to get out of there like the fastest we could We were able to while we were filming this I realized that I had been saving so many expired things and even empty bottles, which is ridiculous.
I don't know why that happened, at least I'm finally dealing with it now and these hot ones. pink baskets I bought at the dollar store about a year ago for only a dollar every time I need an

organization

item and it's not something I look at every day and it's hidden away. I think the dollar store is great. I'd rather spend money on an organizer. that you see every day as a makeup organizer things like that and I have no idea what to use these brown baskets for now of course they have all been taken out and I no longer need them for this so if you have any ideas. write it in the comment.
I also don't always completely divide the sections, so for example, in this middle drawer are the hair tools that I used most often, hair brushes, hair products and then on top are the toothbrushes, too I have hair ties and hairpins. there I brush my teeth every day I use the hair tie every day but I don't always comb my hair every day that's why those things are divided that way there are so many random boxes of things every time I empty a box or a basket, I was like, okay, I'm almost done and then I would look for another one and another one, but how satisfying is this video.
I can't wait to show you the after. I know we have a while, but I still can't wait to show you the after because it's so satisfying, if you agree, hit the like button, it's worth it. I'm taking all the vintage stuff out of the boxes. I think I had three or four half-full boxes of this stuff. Everything goes into an organizer and boxes of anything take up a lot more space so I like to take those things out it's an extra step but it's worth it in the long run I want to kiss you before the sun goes down I want to kiss you before the sun goes down something Also, I'm also moving from the last house in the last bathroom I had.
I used to take all the cotton balls and cotton rounds and swabs out of the containers that come in the packages, I should say, and put them in a little container and I was constantly refilling that thing, it was so useless, like that. I don't do that in this house and I keep them in the package they come in and put them in a drawer under the dresser. I can't reach there to open the drawer and I drink my cellular water. I used to take off my makeup if I'm not removing it in the shower, which I almost always do.
This is a travel organizer so I keep all the small sized products in there wherever I go. We are going on a trip. I can take everything I need from that thing. Packing always takes me forever, so having lots of travel-sized products on hand saves me a lot of time. Raise your hand if you know someone who takes it all for free. Hotel things like free shampoo and body wash, so Chad and he never use them. I never use them and then end up throwing them away like a year later, so I always tell him to stop taking them like the shower stalls, the plastic shower. capital letters, he will take all those things and say that one day we are going to use them and we never do, honestly, there are a lot of things in his bathroom.
I got rid of them all for a minute and put them all up. Chad's hair stuff in the middle drawer with all of mine and then I realized he has like three things and I have 30, so I took out his hair stuff and ended up putting it in this pink basket. I thought it would be very easy for him. in the morning to stand in front of her dresser and brush her teeth, then open it and grab her hair things and that's it so she doesn't have to go through all my things and just when you thought all the boxes and baskets were gone, there's more.
I couldn't believe how much stuff we had. I got rid of a lot more than I had. We're at my new skincare setup. Now I bought these organizers when I was doing my pantry and I knew I was going to use them for skincare or makeup. I really like these because they are stackable and come in two different sizes. I'll link them too so I'm starting to add my skincare here and again this is everyday stuff and also extra stuff even in modis whenever When doing projects like this I always make sure there's room to grow.
I feel like it's real life, so in the tutorial I'll show you how much extra space I have. I obviously have a bit of excess product, but I try not to. If I've ever been sent something and I'm not going to use it, I give it to someone who will. I don't want things just to have them. I say this all the time, so excess extra stuff I get rid of unless I'm really going to use it and I like to do things like this from time to time and go through the rooms because I feel like it's inevitable.
Sometimes you forget what you have and need a little reminder if I've learned something. of this process is to never be disorganized again and I was telling Chad I'm so glad I'm obsessed with all of these things right now with home organization as we move into this house because in a few months it's going to be. so it's very organized I keep saying it but I'm trying to do everything the right way and I know it takes a while many of you have told me not to get frustrated it's going to take a while and I know you're right but it's very difficult wait, there are so many things I haven't saved because I haven't had time to do it the right way, so yes I know it's a process, but at least I can shoot tons of videos.
For you guys, while we're going through all of this, here's a look under my dresser and then you'll see the top drawer in just a second, so everything is starting to fill up. I think it looks very, very good. Let me know what you think. let me know if you have a system similar to how I organize or what you do and also let me know what home organization videos I should do next. Obviously I have a lot to do, but I want to know the order of what you would like to do. Look, I got to enjoy the last thing I have to deal with before the vanity table and my makeup are hair extensions in this basket.
I have so many hair extensions for no reason. I haven't used them in somemonths, I would say since the forest was born. I haven't really used them much. My neck and shoulders have hurt a lot from holding and carrying him. I didn't want to add more weight, so I haven't used them. them and like I'm on the road with a baby, I just never get rid of them, I change my hair a little here and there, I don't do anything with that difference, I add a little blonde, take it off and come back and That's why I have so many .
I should get rid of some of these, but hair extensions are a little expensive, so I'm keeping them. I really should part ways with some of these. I show you where I keep them. the tutorial likeOkay, and then again, after this, we're dealing with my makeup on the vanity and then we're done, believe it or not, it's going to come to an end. I can hardly believe it every time the last thing I do is clean myself. Take out this makeup organizer, of course, it's from Amazon. I'll link it. It costs around 23 dollars. I've always wanted one of those really fancy organizers for my makeup that are acrylic and they're so expensive that I just can't afford to spend $100 on one, so this one looks very similar for a lot less money.
Sometimes I keep my makeup and a makeup bag, but I dig through it, it's hard to find everything, so this way everything has its place. I can see. all at once and I get ready a lot faster and I'm not going to go down, let you go because you hit the cheese when all I have to do after watching this video is wash all my makeup brushes. I didn't do it in this video because it was like 1:00 in the morning and plus we all know how to wash makeup brushes, so I didn't think it would be that interesting to show you that unfortunately I didn't use a steam mop here.
I didn't get to that in my next video, although it'll probably be an all-day cleanse with me or something, so I'll definitely show it to you and you'll use it and tell you what I think about it in my next video. Wow, you can see well, we have reached the last step, if you can even believe it. I'm putting the finishing touches on the dresser, cleaning everything and putting everything in the right places. This is like a semi-permanent setup. I guess I could call. This is not a forever setup, there are a lot of things I want to focus on first before this bath, but I think the setup will work for us for now and now we're going to get into the final tutorial that I'm going to show you. how it all turned out I think this setup will work for us for quite some time.
It is very functional. Be sure to let me know in the comments what you think. If you can believe it, I actually finished it. I'll review everything very quickly. because I know this video is already super long I have our soaps here and our body lotion we both use my makeup right here for now I don't know if I'll keep it like this forever but right now I think it's good hand soap over here and then it'll open up all this so you can see what it looks like inside our toothbrushes, our toothpaste, hair ties, extra toothbrushes in the back, this is all I have for hair, hair dryer that we both use so I think it's really good to have it in the middle everything else is basically for me I'm going to leave the toilet paper down here I need to fill it up we have a lot of extra here's the lotion for Chad's vanity area he uses soaps extra extra razor heads are on his and he's the kind of guy who has amazing skin and doesn't do anything for his skin, like he uses an aloe vera gel on his face that isn't even real aloe vera.
I begged him not to do it and he says it works great and his skin looks amazing, it's so annoying, here's my dresser and what it looks like under it, again, one of these organizers. I think they are really cool, if you need one they are linked below. I have some teeth whitening strips, the few tips, the cotton rounds, all that. Things that I told you I was going to leave in the package, they come in some lotions and tanning products and now for the closet there is a lot of extra space. "I'm so happy this basket is only twenty dollars again," he continued scrolling through the pages of Amazon. this one had like seven different prices at least in as many different listings and 20 was the cheapest and I went through a lot of pages to make sure it's kind of like turning the page right now.
I'm sure it will open in no time and it is very large, it's hard to tell but it is a very large basket for $20. I ended up putting the face towels in this basket, the body towels are here. I'm trying to get used to having all our liquid. higher products since having a baby so I'm trying to switch to that over time before he starts walking and crawling and getting into everything and reaching for these perfect hair extensions are everywhere here and then the ones I use now same if I ever put them in this bag this bag is empty all my extra hair stuff is here and this is basically pretty empty so the travel size products there are tons of extra organization containers in here that are empty and this is empty so I have plenty of space wherever I decide to put here is the last area, the bathroom area.
I didn't do much here. I know I need a toilet paper holder if I do anything else here, although should I put a photo on the wall, should I get one of those stackers or toilet paper to put in the corner? Let me know what you think, one last overview to give you a final overview of everything. I know I need some bath mats, but I want to say this one is a million times better than the beginning. I think we can all agree on that and that completes this video. Yes, I'm filming the outro at the same time as the intro in case I don't make it to it in case I'm too exhausted.
Honestly, I think I will be, so let me know what you thought of the video in the description or not in the description box in the comments section. Everything is linked in the description box for your recent videos. Everything I used in this video. Check it out yes. You're curious and I'll see you here in a few days and in a new video, bye.
