In the evening, we do not want the hassle of trying to find that pair of tiny tweezers. Therefore, for the room to fulfill its role as a space to get ready and unwind, here are some creative bathroom storage ideas that you could implement to better your routine.
Under bathroom sink storage ideas
During your lifetime, you will spend an incredible amount of time in front of the sink. That is why we advise you to store your every day items around it for easy access. Organize them by size, from the smallest to the largest for you to find them in an instant.
If you have a cabinet above your sink, it is the perfect place to store your everyday items. You will want to store smaller items that you use several times a day here. Consider using containers for your toothbrush and toothpaste as an extra way to stay organized.
The top shelves are the most suitable place to store medications. If you have curious little kids, get a locked cabinet to keep them safe.
Store the everyday items that are bigger and need more organisation in your basin unit. Use space dividers to group your items or to separate them from other family members’ stuff. In case you have a lot of makeup, store them in compartments to keep each item easy to find. You can also use baskets for shaving trimmers and hairbrushes to avoid little hair go everywhere.
The far bottom is usually best for the biggest items, such as hairdryers or hair straighteners. Again, use dividers to organize your drawer and to prevent the cords from getting tangled.
Extra cabinets
A side cabinet is perfect for extra supplies or essentials that are too bulky in your basin unit. The key to keeping them organised is to group them by families of products. For top shelves, put your items into boxes, making them easier to take down. Doors are also good ideas for items that do not like moisture.
Bathroom wall storage ideas
Use open shelves to store things that you need to grab quickly, such as hand towels. You could also display accessories you want to show off.
You can add extra shelves pretty much everywhere in your bathroom. Often we negate the corners, but they can be filled with corner shelves optimizing then your space. Shelves can also be added to the bathtub’s panel where you can store towels and various bathroom products.
If you are short on shelf space, another bathroom storage idea could be the use of a trolley. It is a handy solution to add more storage. It can also be moved to where you need it the most, making it extra convenient.
