{More} Dollar Store Storage

This will be a short post as the poorly lit picture is pretty self explanatory. Last month I showed you how I store towels in my kids' bathroom and promised you more storage ideas for the baskets from the dollar store. I don't know what took me so long as I had the labels and some chalk. But that's the way things sometimes go around here.

I used to have one basket with medicine and various first aid items in it but it constantly spilled over, was hard to find things and was just plain messy. Now, you can see everything is sorted into categories which makes things easy to find and put away.

The aqua blue of the baskets doesn't really 'go' with my bathroom decor but since they sit on a shelf in the linen closet I wasn't being too choosy. If I find baskets I like better later I'll move the labels and go on with life. No biggy. I got the chalkboard vinyl labels from Groopdealz a while back and used the kids' sidewalk chalk to write on them, when I get a nice chalk marker the writing will be neater. But, again, they sit in the linen closet so I'm not worried about it.

Thanks for visiting!
