A few months ago I gave our upstairs bathroom a two-day makeover, which involved removing a standing cabinet, painting, adding a chest of drawers and building simple shelves. Now it is a room that can be organized and tidied within five minutes. This is a short video of the project. Tomorrow I will post a step-by-step article.

Hi, this is Kate from Rough Housing talking today about turning our bathroom into a five minute room, a space that can be tidied and cleaned in five minutes. Hope you enjoy. This is our old bathroom, big messy cabinet in the middle and no adequate shelving space to either set things down or store things on a daily basis,

which need to be kept in the bathroom. Something had to be done. So I made a sketch. I thought a wardrobe in the middle would be a good idea, and some shelves, so I hadn't figured out where to put them. But I started by taking out the cabinet and painting,

and I had to do a little bit of patching, a little painting. Here I'm using milk paint, which I love, love, love, because there's no toxicity, covers really well, smells good. First thing I tried was the wardrobe in the middle. The painting didn't really work.
