Want to remove the counter clutter? Here's my solution...
First you have to have an outlet installed inside your bathroom vanity. It can be dropped down from the outlet on top of your vanity or sometimes from the other side of the wall. Hopefully you have a friend or relative or can add this on to an existing electrician service.
Order a Rubbermaid slide and stack basket from Amazon or Walmart. Just under $14 each. Center and boost up the basket with a cut 1' of yardstick on each side, under the screws and supporting the runners on each side. Next pic shows more clearly why you want to do this
You want to raise your basket by 1/4" to clear the lip of the cabinet.
Plug in your hair dryer, curling iron (use a small extension cord if needed for extras). Dryer and iron are ready to go! Open your cabinet, slide your basket out, finish beautifying and drop them in the basket, shut the door then your counter looks like this.....
Clean and orderly. I have a basket in each cabinet. I can sort and manage and easily retrieve so much. (If you have an extra drawer just use a short extension cord over the rear of the drawer. Lay a thin tile (for hot appliances like curling iron or straightener and have all your hair electronics in one spot. )
Suggested materials:
  • Rubbermaid Slide and Stack Basket   (Amazon)
  • Yardstick -cut two 1' lengths   (Around the house)
