How Do You Organize Your Purse?

I just ordered two of these

purse organizer-pockets for everything

They look great! Just lift it out and change purses. I got the large black sturdy and the medium hot pink.

I found four sites that sell purse organizers this one looks the best for my needs. Right now I have one of those PurseBrite things but it's too small and only works in my smallest purse.

Here are the other sites if anyone is interested. No sales or codes but for the price of cheap purse you can get "it all together".

This one looks similar
PURSE ORGANIZER PURSE TO GO PURSE LINER

This one I am not sure about
Purznizer- Handbag and Purse Organizer Accessory

This one I could make
Purseket - The Purse Organizer

Here is a pattern for something like it

Purse Pockets Insert similar to a Purseket with Tutorial

I am going to make some purses this summer and I think making the organizers to match will be nice. I already have the fabric I just have to have some time!!!

Right now my purse has millions of little bags in it to hold everything I need and my summer bag is huge so I have to dig through to get anything. I can't wait to receive the organizers. The lady answered the phone herself and took the order.
Anything that has to do with purses I love!

One large section for the "Here, honey, hold this for me." One large section for the "Mom, can you hold this for me?"
I get the coin portion for myself.

If it was just me, my needs would fit in a coin purse that I could shove in a jeans pocket. Most everything I carry is for just in case purposes involving family.

How Do You Organize Your Purse?

I don't.

Looking for stuff in my purse is like a hobby for me...not one I enjyoy, but a hobby nonetheless!

(I am going to take a look at those purse organizers!)

I don't organize it I guess. I hate clutter at my house and clutter in my purse would be worse! I carry a wallet, my cell phone, my keys, lipstick, chapstick, nail file. That's it. Not too hard to sort thru. I empty all receipts/papers out of my wallet at the end of the day into a big "receipt bin" in case I need them later for something and empty that every other month. If I can get away with it, I clip on my phone and put my credit card and ID in my back pocket and I'm off...

I just throw things in my purse so it's never organized. But amazingly I know where everything is.

I don't necessarily carry one, so I have three or four items I always carry (phone, keys, wallet, iPod at work), and tend to clips things to those, like a flashlight and miniature Sharpies. If I'm carrying a purse, or wearing BDU's for hiking, I'll have the necessary items, plus whatever else I need (water, DH's scanner, GPS, etc). Some things can be made into kits in little bags or pouches, too, like makeup.

Okay, my purse is somewhat organized but only because it has a lot of pockets. The pocket with the zipper has money (my chapstick, dollar bills, nail clippers, coins are all in a small zippered coin bag), checkbook, and credit cards. The outside pocket has my calendar and the Epipen Jr. for son's peanut allergies. The other outside pocket has miscellaneous junk. I clip my keys onto one of the metal buckles with a carabiner and there is a pocket for my cell phone which I put in my pocket if I'm not carrying my purse.

Yikes, I scare myself after re-reading that!

I ordered two through a living waters party. I think they are awesome but my family still refers to my purse as the "black hole". Frankly, I am glad that they are scared to put their hand in my purse....keeps my secret stash of gum and money off limits!

Talking

I have a pocket on the outside back for my cell phone. Outside front for my keys. Inside I have 3 things - my huge wallet, a case with makeup and other stuff of that sort, and a case with my checkbook, pens, small notebook and other stuff of that sort. It really works for me.

Every once in a while I get the notion to organize my bag ( purses aren't big enough for me! LOL!) and it will last till I leave the house the next time....I have tried organizers, but I tend to just throw things in the bag.....I do have Jamey's inhaler's, adapters and diastat and epi-pen all in a special spot, but everything else is a free for all!

I have a small purse so it doesn't fit too much crap. I can only fit my wallet, lipstick, eyeliner, small eyeshadow, and masquera (sp??). My cell phone goes in the little outside pocket. If I try to fit my iPod in I can't close it.

I bought a larger purse a few weeks ago and HATE it. So much stuff fits in it and its impossible to find anything.

I received my Chameleons and I just love them. I don't even need to carry a wallet and if someone were to reach into my purse (highly unlikely I am paranoid) there would be no wallet to grab. The lady makes them herself they are not from China very well constructed.

My husband is pleasantly suprised at how I can just reach into the Chameleon and pull out exactly what I want without rifling around. I am so happy with this thing! If you want to get your purse organized give on a try! I am a happy woman (at least for the moment!).
