Small Bathroom Storage Solutions

Make sure your small bathroom stays organized with these ideas.

Storing items neatly in your bathroom when space is limited can be challenging. If you're looking to keep your cozy bathroom organized, a number of ideas exist to make sure that the space is both functional and attractive.

Types

It's best to include furniture pieces that will store items while decorating the space. For instance, a small basket that will hold towels and washcloths can be positioned in the corner; shelves can be installed above the toilet to house linens or decorations without taking up cabinet space.

Function

Items that have a specific function in a small bathroom ensure that all of your items are accessible, and that your bathroom is free of clutter. A caddy in the bathtub should be used to store soap and shampoo, and the dirty-clothes hamper should be hooked to the back of the bathroom door to free up floor space.

Considerations

It's a good idea to add small baskets or bins to bathroom cabinets to keep your supplies orderly. For example, a set of three baskets can be placed in the cabinet to house shampoo, soap and lotions. Adding a small bookshelf to the bathroom also makes an ideal space for towels and toilet paper without making the bathroom appear too crowded.
