And the packing begins...

A cruise packing tip I recently acquired was utilizing a shoe rack... GENIUS! It's less than $10 and can keep basically ALL of your toiletries organized. I'm going to first show you how I have it hanging out of the way on the inside part of my door to the hall closet. My hot water heater, blankets, and cleaning/laundry supplies are all kept here, so it's a door I open occasionally. When you think of anything you want to pack, you put it in here and it forces you to look at the quantity of items your packing to make your decisions easier. For example, "is this worth bringing due to the amount of room it takes up???"

Here goes...

 As promised, proof that it's hanging on my utility closet door! 

 Here's a look at each row...

Just a side note: I excluded the Big Sexy Hair because it turned out to be a mousse and not a hairspray. I will bring my other hair spray or purchase the travel size hair spray.

 That's it for now! More pictures to come and I start to get my small cosmetic bags ready!
