The master bathroom has more drawers than all three of the bathrooms in our previous home. With so much room, we still have a lot of empty drawers in all the bathrooms. Niels and I are used to one shared drawer for our toothpaste and combs, so that's what we still do. But a couple of items always seem to get lost: the tweezer, the clippers, and the little scissors. I took three minutes out of my day to take care of that.
Magnets = no more missing tools.
We had already discovered that Target's utensil organizer was just the right size for our drawer, keeping the hair and teeth items separate. (The link above is actually for the expandable one, but ours is not available online).
All I needed was some glue and magnets, both of which I had on hand.
I glued three magnets on the front part of the drawer, so they'd be easy to find.
After holding each magnet for about thirty seconds after applying, they were good to go.
