My cabinet under the bathroom sink has been driving me insane because there’s not that much inside it but it’s horribly cluttered. When we moved from our 2 bedroom condo to this 4 bedroom house, we didn’t spend a lot of time organizing because we had so much space. Fourteen months later, it’s getting to be a problem. We really don’t know where things are, the disorganization drives me nuts, and it looks like we have way too much- when really we just have things poorly organized. Or that’s what I am telling myself anyways.
Daddy B offered to make me something to organize seeing my own attempts were a massive fail. I didn’t want to spend a ton of money and I was struggling looking at those organizers online because it’s got to fit just right or you’ve got a useless product.
Anyhow these work amazing and he attached them with brackets… Not too fancy, but it helped immensely. I used storage bins to separate some items so they’re easy to grab (ie. All Neti pot things are together). The organized picture actually has MORE stuff than was in there before the fix… I took the black bin and the green bin on the left from our linen closet. Cost:
- 1/4″ Oak Plywood (2×4′): $15 (some scraps leftover)
- 4 Metal Brackets (90 degree ones): $1.23 each
- Bag of Screws: $4 (lots leftover)
Total: $24
Here’s some pictures of it all. Very easy to do, although you want to get the measurements right for your particular cabinet. It gives me wayyyyy more storage space than those organizers tend to.
