Getting Organized Challenge #6 & 7—Dresser Drawers and the Pantry

I slacked again  Well, I knew that I wasn’t going to get yesterday’s challenge done because we went straight from work to dinner to a friend’s house to bed.  I also knew that I would have time to do it today so I wasn’t worried.  Plus, my dresser drawers aren’t bad at all, so I only did three—one of unmentionables (sorry, I didn’t photograph that one—TMI for the internet in my opinion), one of tank tops and one of pajamas and lounge clothes.  I have yet to find a good way to keep my tank tops organized.  I have a lot, but I like to layer my outfits, so I wear one almost every day.  I tried something new this time, so hopefully it will work for me.  As for the pantry, I don’t have one.  I have a kitchen with some cabinets.  I make the best of our limited storage.  Also since there are only two of us and we are on a budget, we don’t have that much food in the apartment.  Here’s all the before and afters—hope you like them!

Pajamas and lounge clothes after (they still need a better place to live, but this is as good as it is going to get right now).

And here are the “panty” before and afters:

Do you love these jars that have my spices in them?

I do.  They’ve from Hobby Lobby and were 50% off this week, making them $1 each.  I went to four different Hobby Lobbys and ended up with 18 (one has sugar in it for Boyfriend’s coffee).

  2. that looks like a great idea for the tank tops, i bet it will work! you can see all of them and they probably dont get shoved around and wrinkled this way!
