New House, Need Organization

I recently moved into a smaller house so I am having to be a little creative.  I've gotten a few ideas from a couple of the blogs I follow and Pinterest.  (Side note: if you have any suggestions, please let me know!!)

Over the weekend I started with my bathroom, because it was the most annoying!

So here is project number one: Master Bathroom Cabinet, the only cabinet in the bathroom, that's right, no drawers or other storage places at all!


Emma, trying to help.  "You're gonna clean this, right mom?!"


This is my mess, which was driving me nuts!!

Cooper, "That's quite a mess mom!"


What do you think?!?!

I did have a little trouble getting the drawers in, of course the lip of the cabinet is lower than the inside so they wouldn't just slide in because it was like 1/2 an inch too tall!! After a little frustration, and realizing that it was good plastic and was not going to bend AT ALL, I found that the top popped off and it made it short enough to get through and once it was in, I popped the top back on!

The drawers I got from Walmart for about $10, and the two plastic bins, one of which you can't see really, I already had!

My First Post

Hi!! I'm Anna and welcome to The Road Less Traveled By blog!
First I'll tell you a little bit about myself I work at Oklahoma State University, I have a boyfriend of about four years and we have two furry children Emma is a chocolate lab and Cooper is a blue heeler.


I went to Oklahoma State to get my degree in Hotel Restaurant Management and I absolutely love working at my alma mater and love everyone that I work with.

With this blog I plan to show different things that I do around the house, things that I do with my furry children and other certain things that come along the way.

Things I love are Pinterest, of course, things for dogs, easy hairstyles from one of my favorite blogs, crafts that sometimes I don't finish and much more I hope you like what you read!

If you ever have any questions, suggestions or comments. Let me know!
