Storage Ideas For A Small Bathroom

Is your bathroom small? It’s the worst, isn’t it? Zach and I have always lived with tiny bathrooms and we have to get creative with our space! Unfortunately, small bathrooms are very common and are usually the smallest rooms in the house. Although you can’t change your square footage, a change of organization and storage space can make a drastic difference in how big your bathroom feels. Here are a few tips and tricks to make your bathroom space feel more functional and spacious.

  •  Medicine Cabinet
    If you have a regular mirror, replacing it with one that includes a medicine cabinet can provide further storage space that keeps your products out of sight.

  • Shelving
    If you have free space above your toilet, vanity, or other another empty part of the wall, install shelving units. Purchase a few decorative baskets to maximize shelf space.

  • Hooks
    With a few decorative hooks, in a style of your preference, you can declutter by placing a couple on the back of the door to hang towels or robes. Zach and I installed two hooks on both sides of our shower to hang our towels and keep them out of the way to dry! Or perhaps one or two right next to each end of the shelving unit you just installed.

  • Towel Racks 
    A rack installed inside of your shower can save you space and convenience, also adding an additional shower bar above the original will work nicely. Another idea is installing a few racks a couple of feet above each other or right next on another. If you have an excessive amount of towels, store some of them away in the bedroom closet.

  • Vanity with Cabinet
    I have come across plenty of pedestal sinks in small bathrooms, but if you want to save some space, add some storage, and upgrade the look of your bathroom at the same time, a vanity cabinet will definitely do the trick!
