Day 8: Purging your vehicle.
Well sadly, I don't have anything to update for this one which is why it's been holding me up. Finding some new organization to my Suburban to help keep it clean and tidy has been high up on my to do list. However, it's not the top and it's going to take me a little while to get it where I want it so instead of spending a little time half doing it now, I'm making the decision to wait and do this one later. However, once I do have this done I'll definitely update y'all on how I organize our "mommy-mobile".
Day 9: Purging your bathroom cabinets.
This is something we actually did about a month ago! We have 2 full baths and one half bath so I'm going to show you 2 out of the 3 because one is still in the works for a full reveal...our guest bath!
In our downstairs half bathroom vanity cabinet, we keep extra large bottles of cleaner, extra paper towels, extra hand soap, and extra air freshener. This is really just for well extras. :)
In our master bathroom, we have 2 vanities. One is "my" area and one is "Adam's" area. Here's what I've got in "mine". In the left side drawers, I keep my weekly beauty products or more often needed products and my hair tools that I use most often.
In the middle cabinet part, I keep my larger "weekly/often" need beauty products like fingernail polish remover and self tanner on one side. On the other side, I keep a cleaning caddy I got at Walmart for around $5 with our bathroom cleaners. This has been so handy to keep our bathrooms clean. I tend to want to clean them when a cleaning bug bites me (almost always at a totally random time) so I like having those cleaners upstairs and altogether so I'm not running around trying to grab everything.
In the right side drawers, we have our teeth products like extra toothpaste, floss, and whitener and our bathroom accessories we aren't hanging until we redo the bathroom.
In the vanity Adam uses, we haven't organized because we will soon (hopefully) be taking it out when we redo our master bath. It just keeps random dog stuff, his extras, and apparently another FULL bottle of toilet cleaner... Thanks to the purge I found it!
Day 10: Purging your bills.
This is one we are trying to be good about, but sometimes we let the papers pile up. I have opted to have a lot of our bills electronic notification and e-statements only to save paper and it's one less thing for me to recycle. Did you know a lot of companies are actually charging small fees to mail paper statements now??
We organize bills we need to keep though in our filing cabinet next to our desk. As of right now, I have had all our bills cleaned out so we don't have a picture of anything needing to be purged.
I'll also be posting our command center soon...hopefully!
Day 11: Purging your freezer.
This is something I'm so bad about keeping organized because when we bought our house, we adopted the oversize french door, bottom extra deep freezer with it. Our old fridge was a regular sized side by side and I had used plastic containers from Walmart to organize the shelves. So this purge made me finally get to finding a way to organize our new freezer!
Before:
Here's my inspiration:

We still don't have any containers in the bottom but I have organized the top by smoothie stuff and ice cream and the bottom by open bags of non-meat items on the left and meat items on the right. We are blessed to have our side by side out in the garage which is where we keep our unopened veggies, extras of different items, and meat we aren't going to use right away.

I hope you enjoyed this round of purging (make sure to follow ABFOL on Instagram and tag your purge photos with her hashtage!), and as always, thanks for stopping by!
