31 Days of Order/Disorder, Day 7

We're in the bathroom again. But this time "order" is in my bathroom, and "disorder" is in the kids'.

 ORDER:
 It took me a long time to figure out a good system for my earrings and necklaces. I even actually have an expensive jewelry box, but it doesn't have very many individual compartments. And have you ever realized that you only really wear about 10 favorites anyway? At least I do. But I don't want to get rid of the other 40 pair. So those live in my expensive jewelry box in the closet. My favorites live here in two inexpensive ice cube trays stacked one on top of the other, in one of my bathroom drawers. (Which fit perfectly, by the way.)

DISORDER:
I have yet to figure out a good system for the kids' toothbrushes and paste and such. I thought the individual mugs might help, but it still looks cluttered and messy. There are no drawers in this bathroom. AT ALL. So my options are limited. How do you keep YOUR kids' toothbrush/paste mess under control? I'm very open to suggestions!

Mirror with the hidden shelves behind it? One of those wall plant/pot holders or candle sconce type thing? - Crystal D.

Actually it is a rotating toothbrush holder, but it will only fit those really old fashioned flat, short toothbrushes. And there's no way to change it.
