My makeup vanity has been in need of a little reorganization for a long time.
And after organizing it, I can’t believe I didn’t do it sooner! It’s so much easier to find what I’m looking for now.

Makeup vanity organization: BEFORE
As embarrassing as this is, here’s what my makeup vanity looked like before I started organizing it:

Thanks so much for reading, and as always, happy organizing. 🙂
