I’ve got a few fun tips to share with you today! I’ll be showing you some embarrassing before/after photos of under my sink {akkk!} With a sewing tutorial for the under sink organizer that I used to control my mess. I also want to share my experience with Little Remedies® Probiotic Plus Electrolytes, which I keep under my sink!
Everything looks so neat, right? Here’s the before and after.. aakkk! I do not like clutter, so the areas of my house that are hard to organize drive me a little bonkers…it’s hard to stay on top of certain places.
I’m loving my new under sink organizer, and thinking that all my sinks need one! Before we get to the sewing tutorial I want to point out one great product that I store under my sink… Little Remedies® Probiotic Plus Electrolytes. Many of you know we adopted our daughter from China last summer, and it’s been an amazing journey. We noticed soon after we got her that she seemed to have stomach issues as her diapers were a MESS! I was really nervous thinking about potty training coming… so I tried probiotics and within days we saw a huge difference. SO amazing! She ended up being our easiest kid to potty train. Little Remedies® Probiotic Plus Electrolytes contains 5 billion active cultures of the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, which helps keep the digestive system in balance and supports immune function* and is the only pediatric product that combines a probiotic and electrolytes in 1 convenient packet. It worked for our daughter!

Okay.. now on to the under sink organizer tutorial! You will need 1/2 yard of fabric cut in these dimensions: {inches}1-15×34, 2-15×8, 1-8×12.
You also need a 15×17 piece of stiff interfacing. {this is 1/2 the length of the large piece.}
Iron the interfacing on 1/2 of the large fabric piece. This will be the main body of the organizer.
Fold this piece in half with right sides together and sew around the three open sides. Leave a 6″ opening for turning. I wasn’t really specific with my seam allowance, but probably 1/4-3/8″ ish..
Turn right side out through the hole and iron around the sides. Fold the edges of the opening under.
Pin to close the hole. Sew this closed and around the rest of the edges. Top-stitch all four sides.
Now for the smaller pocket pieces. Sew around three sides of each one.
Turn right sides out and fold in the ends to finish the edge.
Sew the end closed and around two other sides. Leave one long end not-stitched.
Place the pockets on the large back piece. Line up one pocket with the bottom, and then the other long pocket about 1.5 inches above that. Place the square pocket 1.5 inches above that.
Pin the pockets in place. The side that isn’t top-stitched should be the bottom of the pocket.
Sew sides and bottom of all three pockets. You can also add elastic on the sides of the top pocket for additional storage.
The larger pockets need to be divided into smaller ones. I did it like this… you can make smaller sections if you want.
There are a few options for hanging this on your cabinet door. 1. If you have wooden doors, like my top photo, you can use hooks that go right into the wood. 2. If that’s not an option, use sticky hooks to hang it on the door.
I used large rivets to hang my organizer. You can also sew button holes if you don’t have rivets. Mine are 4″ in from the side and 1″ down. If I make this again, I would put the hooks closer to the side edges.
I used the tool that came with the rivets to put them in.
Attach the hooks to your cabinet door and hang your organizer!

Did you write this post for me? ha! You should see my under the sink area! Phew! I could certainly use an orgranizer for all the “must haves” . I like the ease of this organizer. I think I can pull that off!
Shirley says
I’ve seen Little Remedies at my daughter’s home. She uses it with her children! Nice tutorial and organizer for the cabinet! I wouldn’t want anyone to see inside my bathroom cabinet right now. Organizing is on my to-do list.
Paula Schuck says
I love that undersink organizer! That’s such a great way to help keep the chaos down. I had to chuckle when you talked about your “embarrassing pictures”. That’s nothing! You should see what kind of craziness is going on underneath EVERY sink in my house.

Michelle says
I really like this under sink organizer. It seems like I am constantly reorganizing cabinets around our house. I think something like this where I can see things would cut back on the amount of time I spend reorganizing and searching for things. Thank you for sharing how we can make one for ourselves.
Wood Arts Universe says
I love the design of the fabric that you used, the colors are not to bright and cool to the eyes. Oh, how I wish I know how to sew. I could’ve the made this kind of organizer at home. Thank you for sharing. Who knows? I might make one too. Haha

You know I love anything organizing, Emily. 🙂 I’m really like that I can customize this organizer by the choice of fabric. I can make one to match my children’s interests or one to match my decor. Congrats, you’re featured this week at the #ThisIsHowWeRoll Link Party. Pinning now.
Joan Dotterer says
I think this is a very cute and useful idea. Thank you for .sharing it.
This might be a good time to remind everyone to not put anything in it that little hands should not get into, Bright cute material like that will attract their attention just like it does us. It could .be useful for little toys to be put into in their rooms or maybe one in bathroom for their bath toys.

With three adults and four cats living in a not-enormous co-op, I’ll trade your “before” photo for any sink cabinet, pantry and closet in my home. Currently getting rid of clutter & furniture, and hoping to have my sewing machine set up soon. I love this organizer so much I may get started now, using my neighbor’s (ancient) machine. I’m thinking about scaling it up for the pantry door-I have a shoe organizer there now, but it’s falling apart. A strong fabric won’t wear out as quickly. Thank you for the wonderful tutorial!
