Hello there! I’m your friendly neighborhood organization enthusiast, and today we’re going to talk about small bathrooms. Don’t worry, we’re not here to judge - we know that sometimes, space is tight and storage solutions are hard to come by. But fear not, because today we’re going to show you some clever storage ideas that will maximize the space in your bathroom and leave you feeling clutter-free and relaxed.

🧹Rule #1: Declutter

Before we dive into the storage solutions, let’s talk about decluttering. It’s time to get rid of those expired products, empty shampoo bottles, and random odds and ends that are taking up valuable space in your bathroom. Go through your cabinets and drawers and be ruthless - if you haven’t used it in the past six months, it’s time to say goodbye.

📦Storage Solution #1: Over-the-toilet shelving

One of the biggest space wasters in a small bathroom is the area above the toilet. Take advantage of that vertical space by installing an over-the-toilet shelf. Not only does it add storage space, but it also draws the eye upward, making the room feel bigger.

🚪Storage Solution #2: Utilize the back of the door

Another often overlooked storage area is the back of the bathroom door. Install an over-the-door organizer or a set of hooks to hang towels, robes, and other bathroom essentials. This is a great space saver for small bathrooms, as it keeps everything off the counter and out of the way.

💡Tip #1: Use storage containers

Small bathrooms can often feel cluttered because there are too many loose items lying around. Use storage containers to keep everything in its place. For example, use a caddy to keep your shower products organized, or a jar to store your cotton balls and swabs.

🧻Storage Solution #3: Install recessed shelving

If you’re willing to do some construction work, installing recessed shelving in your bathroom can be a game-changer. Recessed shelves are a great way to add storage space without taking up any of your precious floor space. Plus, they add a modern, upscale look to your bathroom.

💡Tip #2: Use the space above the toilet tank

If you don’t want to install an over-the-toilet shelf, consider using the space above the tank. You can install a small shelf or a hanging organizer to hold extra toilet paper, cleaning supplies, or anything else you need.

🧴Storage Solution #4: Use a tiered tray

If you’re short on counter space in your bathroom, a tiered tray can be a helpful storage solution. Not only does it provide more surface area to store items, but it also adds a decorative touch to your space.

💡Tip #3: Hang a shower curtain with pockets

A shower curtain with pockets is a genius storage solution for small bathrooms. You can use the pockets to hold everything from shampoo and conditioner to razors and soap. It’s the ultimate way to keep your shower essentials organized and within arm’s reach.
