In our bathroom, we have the same problem as we used to have in our kitchen; it’s spotless in terms of actual cleanliness, but a lack of storage definitely makes us guilty of disorganization on occasion! That’s why we’ve always got our eyes peeled for small DIY projects we can make there that will help us out by giving us new places to put the things that otherwise create clutter.
Just in case you could used some creative suggestions for small bathroom storage solutions too, here are 15 of the simplest, and most useful projects and ideas we’ve come across so far in our search for guidance and inspiration!
1. Window box toilet paper storage
Are you growing tired of just stashing the new bag of toilet paper next to the toilet where it has to be struggled out of the plastic, or perhaps piling it there plastic-free where one of the kids inevitably knocks the whole stack over? Then we have a feeling you’ll be quite glad to come across this idea from
2. File box appliance storage
The idea of wall mounting a basket of some kind is actually one that’s useful just about anywhere in a bathroom that lacks counter space and cupboards! We’re pretty big fans of this idea for doing a similar thing as you saw above but this time with a long file box because that’s a better shape for hair utensils like hair dryers and straighteners! Take a look at this tutorial from D
3. Plastic cap and velcro toothbrush holder
Have you been looking for a simple and budget friendly way to help the kids organize their toothbrushes because you don’t want them leaving them all over the counter but putting them in a cup didn’t work because they forgot which one belonged to who? In that case, we definitely think you should take a look at the way
4. Crown molding bathroom shelves
Maybe you’re feeling like you could really use an extra shelf or two in your bathroom but you’ve hesitated because you haven’t found any small enough for your very tiny space just yet? Well, that’s why we thought this concept from
5. Under-the-sink bathroom cabinet storage
Are you actually pretty proud of the way your bathroom looks organized but you also know that the illusion is shattered the moment you open the doors to the cupboard under the sink? In that case, we have a feeling you might get along better with a suggestion like this one from
6. Cupboard door hooks for hairstyling tools
Are you absolutely in need of a place to store your hairstyling tools like we talked about a little earlier on our list but you’re not really a fan of the file box idea because you’d rather not have to tangle the right tool and its cord out of a box each time you need it? In that case, we have a feeling you might prefer the way
7. Stacked and painted crate shelves
If you’ve got a little bit of floor space to work with but you’re finding it hard to find a piece that suits your bathroom’s aesthetic and is also wide but short enough for what you need, why not make something custom from crates instead? We adore the way
8. Stackable bin cupboard storage
Are you intrigued by the idea of putting something underneath your cupboard that will help you keep it organized but you’re just not sure actual drawers will fit under your little apartment sink? In that case, we’d definitely suggest taking a look at how
9. Wall mounted full length mirror storage
Are you actually feeling a little bit more hands-on and up for a challenge, since you’re a very handy person indeed, so you’re thinking about putting your simple woodworking skills to good use? Well, if you’ve got some spare wall space to work with but not much space on the floor for the kind of full length shelf you really need, we’d definitely encourage you to take a look at this wall mounted, mirror doored bathroom cupboard outlined in full on
10. Bead filled makeup brush vase
Are the things you’re looking to organize the most in your bathroom actually smaller things that you’re simply tired of having scattered across the counter tops? Well, if makeup brushes are part of the problem, we’d absolutely suggest taking a look at how
11. Baskets to keep the closet organized
Just like bins and drawers can help keep the space underneath the sink more organized, we find that placing a few bins on the shelves in the bathroom closet helps us keep other parts of our bathroom clutter free too!
12. Sideways hanging wall basket storage
Were you actually quite a big fan of the way you saw crates turned sideways in order to create cubby storage but you don’t have the room to stack crate shelves on the ground? Then maybe you’d get along better with this wall mounted concept that works similarly, but using lighter wire baskets!
13. Storage shelf above the door
When it come to really maximizing on all available space where there’s any space available, sometimes you just have to put a shelf wherever you possibly can! That’s the logic
14. Plank and rope shelving
Have you actually been scrolling through our options hoping to find a shelving idea that’s a little more crafty but not quite as hands-on as the previous wooden shelf idea with the full length mirror that we showed you before? In that case, particularly if you enjoy rustic aesthetics, we’d absolutely suggest taking a look at how
15. Medicine cabinet magnet organization
Did we really catch your attention when we started talking about finding ways to store the tiniest bits of clutter in your bathroom because that’s what takes up the most space on your counters, but organizing makeup brushes isn’t an issue for you? Then maybe you’d have better luck with something like these medicine cabinet magnets from
