bathroom organization.

Organization.
Fun word, right? Or does it send shivers down your spine? Typically, I would consider myself a fairly organized person. But, we all have our days. Anyway, yesterday, I was so fed up with the brushes & sticks of eyeliner that were always rolling around in my makeup drawer. Hmm....I pondered. What could be done?

Ding. Ding. Ding. I used an old jar (that once had homemade apricot jam) to store my brushes & eyeliner! And this morning? It was so nice to know exactly where my smudge brush & dark brown eyeliner was. No more searching through the drawer. 

PS. You'll notice my cotton balls are also stored in an old mason jar? That's one of my favorite containers. I bought it at an antique store for $2 last year. Also, the "ring holder" is actually a candle warmer from Bath & Body Works. But, I changed it to hold my rings instead. Oh, and be prepared for an "owl obsession" post later this week. I'm excited for it. You should be too.
