Hi Ashley!

I wish I knew the name of that green color! I took a green bin in to the paint store and just had them match it. Sorry that isn't much help to you!

you are a gal after my organizing lov'n heart!...

you are a gal after my organizing lov'n heart!

Your solution looks just fabulous with or without color coding. You have a place for them, and they are in their place. :)

when i first saw the photo, i thought you had hung up two belts (which would be clever as well!)

i very recently featured on article on organizing hair accessories on my site - i just may have to go back and add your pic to the mix as well.

hope you are having a happy weekend!

Wasn't the last episode of The Good Wife the best? I remember you said that was one of the shows you watch. I love that show! It is my favorite one! -Erin

Love your hair accessory organization!

Do your girls really take their clips out of their hair and NOT leave them in their rooms, on their beds, in their backpacks, etc? Do they really go into the bathroom, take them out of their hair, and put them where they go? I have five girls ... and ribbons, headbands, and clips are ALL over our house. I find them everywhere: In their rooms. In MY room. In the kitchen. In the car. In various drawers and cupboards throughout the house. We have designated "spots' for them in the bathroom, but do they get put back there? NO! I'm ready to send my girls over to your house for a week or two (hey, you are only an hour away from me, so this isn't such a stretch!) and then they can learn your ways and will follow the good examples of Ellie and Addison and will come back to me with some organizational habits!

Love that picture of the girls ~ Addison's hair is so curly!

Love your blog!!

I second the used oatmeal container for headband storage. My daughters painted pictures to put around the outside of our container. I store our holiday ponytail holders inside since they rarely get used.

2012-01-30T07:51:10.528-08:00

I love how you organized your little girls bows. I have one little girl and right now everything is tucked in one drawer. But your post gave me some great ideas thanks for sharing. And I love the picture of your girls in the bathroom those moments are just priceless.

2012-01-30T07:11:53.007-08:00

I need to find that bow organizer you have! Right now, ours are just thrown in their bathroom drawer. No organization whatsoever.

LOVE that last picture! Such a sweet moment. And I used to wear pink sponge rollers as a little girl. Brings back so many memories!

Just sharing a tip I've read and used before.....

2012-01-30T06:27:20.958-08:00

Just sharing a tip I've read and used before...take an empty oatmeal container, or similar shape but smaller, cover with some cute scrap paper, and slip headbands around the outside - like they are hugging the container. It's an easy way to see all of them at once. You could even store something else inside!

I enjoy your blog, Erin. Thanks for sharing!

2012-01-30T06:20:01.164-08:00

I feel more organized, just knowing my hair accessory system is very similar to yours.

Sadly though, I probably don't even need a system because Audrey hates to have her hair done - she prefers "just hair" - ha!

2012-01-30T05:45:53.958-08:00

I use an over-the-door shoe organizer with clear pockets in my daughter's bathroom. The little pockets work perfectly for organizing all of her hair accessories!

2012-01-30T04:55:18.260-08:00

Good morning, Erin. I ran across your blog a few weeks ago through one of those "rabbit trails" and wish I could remember how I got here! Haha! I really enjoy your posts and wanted to say that you have a precious family. My girls are 29, 26, and 16. So we're out of the barrett stage, but I used to have a similar system. I braided yarn in a long length to hang in their bathroom for the clips and such. My oldest now makes hairbands and she keeps hers in a large vase. She just sticks one end in the vase all around the top. Maybe that would work for you. Seeing your girls makes me miss those days when ours were small. Enjoy them!
Blessings,
Karen

2012-01-30T04:28:32.021-08:00

Oh Erin posts like these just make me want to run out and borrow a bunch of girls for 18 years or so. I remember those days of pink ribbons and fun flower headbands and I want them back!

2012-01-30T03:49:33.912-08:00

I miss those hairbow days! My girls (now 22 and 18) store all their hair accessories in a tote that has trays inside that we got at the containerstore years ago. My oldest took hers off to college and now has it at her apartment. Plenty of compartments for clips and the bottom holds ribbons or headbands. I use extra clear boxes for additional items under the sink too.

2012-01-30T03:42:41.457-08:00

What a sweet picture! Your girls bathroom is so cute! And your bows and headbands still look great! They would all be in a basket if it were me. ;-) Maybe it is a good thing I have all males in this house. lol!

2012-01-30T02:45:56.475-08:00

Hi Erin. Great post. When my girls were little I went crazy over organizing their accessories by color. No joke. I had about six clear shoes boxes labeled by color. LOL. It worked but I can't believe I did that. Now that they are 11 and 13 we've narrowed it down to this cute container I found at the container store for their elastic bands and a few little accessory clips. I can tell you love The Children's Place just as I do. I've seen a lot of the clothes I used to buy them in your posts including some of those cute little barrettes in this post. This maybe Aliya's last year shopping at CP now she likes Justice and they both love Aeropostale. Oh what to look forward to :-) Have a great Monday.
