Some use a medicine shelf, drawer, or even a basket. Well, in my case, I use a medicine cabinet located in my guest bathroom, and a medicine shelf, located in my kitchen next to my refrigerator above my vitamin shelf. (Wow! That\u2019s a lot of personal information).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not all homes come equipped with a medicine cabinet. Not sure what a medicine cabinet is used for or how it\u2019s supposed to be used. I\u2019m here to help. A medicine cabinet is a small storage space usually located in a bathroom, either above the sink or toilet. They are designed to hold everyday get-ready essentials like toiletries, medicine, and hygiene products. If you want one, and your home is not equipped with one a handyman can help you install one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s start with containers, what containers are best to use in a medicine cabinet? Start with measurements of the the shelves you will need the length, width, and height (the space between each self, so you know the tallest containers for the space). The containers I used for this project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1571\" data-attachment-id=\"178\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/happyorganized.me\/?attachment_id=178\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/happyorganized.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/9125b831-dd7f-41e0-b8a4-b5a85a5d0578.jpg?fit=1440%2C1571&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1440,1571\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"9125b831-dd7f-41e0-b8a4-b5a85a5d0578\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/happyorganized.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/9125b831-dd7f-41e0-b8a4-b5a85a5d0578.jpg?fit=939%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/happyorganized.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/9125b831-dd7f-41e0-b8a4-b5a85a5d0578.jpg?resize=1440%2C1571&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-178\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step one: empty cabinet and wash shelves, mirrors, and walls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Step two: purge, edit, and sort.
