Hi everyone, I'm Alejandra from Alejandra.tv and in this video I'm going to
share with you how to organize your guest bathroom so your guests feel welcome and they
feel like they can find everything they need when it's time for them to get ready and use
the guest bathroom.
First, if this is your first time watching any of my videos and you were just beginning
to get yourself more organized, there is a link below to help you get started for free.
Here is the guest bathroom, now I am going to show you all the systems I have in place
so your guest know exactly where to find something and it's really easy to access.
Right here is the medicine cabinet, and it has basically anything that someone might
need to get ready fast in the morning, and just anything they might need. Let me share
with you what's inside. There's toothpaste, there's floss, there's cotton balls, cotton
swabs, cotton pads, everything has a cover on top so it doesn't get dusty or dirty. There's
wipes right here, there's little perfume samples. I'm going to show you, there's more samples
down below of anything that someone might need right here. There's Advil, there's more
medication, there's mouthwash, there's travel spray, there's hand sanitizer, a lint roller
and matches for the candle that is inside the guest room. There is open space at the
very top so if they want to unpack and put their stuff away, there is plenty of space
to do just that.
On the vanity top, there's really not many things, so again, they can put their stuff
here and not feel like it is too cluttered. There's hand soap and there is lotion, and
really that's it. When you have a clear vanity top, it also makes it a lot easier to clean,
wipe down, and also just keep it clean as well.
All right, now I've showed you these two places, let me share with you what is in the cabinet
and the drawers below.
Down here is the cabinet and there is a set of drawers right hers, so I will show you
the drawers first. These two drawers are completely empty because you want your guests to be able
to unpack and feel like they are at home, so nothing is kept inside these. If you have
to use your guest room as storage because you need more storage, before your guests
come, take everything out and clean it up and just make it empty for them to unpack.
This drawer right here has extra toilet paper, there's some paper towels, there's tissues
and a cup for rinsing the bathtub after they take a shower, if it needs to be rinsed out.
This cabinet right here has all of the toiletries that someone might need to take a shower,
again to get ready in the morning, and everything is of course sorted by category to make it
super fast for someone to find exactly what they need, when they need it. There's body,
there's face, shaving, lotion, tampons, hair stuff and then dental stuff. I just used pineapple
labels because pineapples are a symbol of welcome. I used stackable organizers to maximize
your vertical space because you have this really tall cabinet and you don't want to
have dead space.
Right here I have a over the cabinet door blow dryer organizer, so it just gets the
blow dryer our of the space and on to the door, again to maximize your space, and this
is puttied down along with the stackable organizers I just shared with you. Then there is the
microfiber cloth right here, so your guests can clean the top of the vanity if there is
extra water, or it's dirty, and then there is a cleaner right here, so they can use the
cleaner if they would like.
That's the cabinet, and those are the drawers, now let me share with you what is on the other
side of the bathroom.
Whenever I have guests who are about to come in to town, I will make sure they have fresh
towels in here, so the day before I will come in and put fresh towels right here, and then
these are face towels for washing your face, or for drying your hands, and this is in a
basket that is puttied down to the top of the toilet so it's not going to move, or it's
not going to slide off. Of course, make sure that they are clean before your guests arrive.
The toilet paper, I will just fold it in to a nice triangle, just like they do in a hotel.
Again, it's these little touches that makes them feel like we were excited about their
visit, and we are excited to have them inside of our home.
Over here, there's two towels for drying your hands and stuff, and then back here is the
shower, so what I will do right here is, again, the day before they arrive, I'll take a foot
towel and I'll fold it nicely, hang it right here, and on the shelf right here, it's nice
to go to someones house and they have, again, all the toiletries in the vanity, but also
in the shower. There's bottles of shampoo, conditioner, there's face wash, shaving cream,
and on the other side there's body wash and soap. Right here there is a squeegee that
is hung using a command hook to get it off of the surface and on to the wall for squeegeeing
the shower after you take a shower or take a bath.
Life is all about relationships, and having guests over is a lot easier and less stressful
when your house is organized and you have systems in place that work for you and your
family.
