It might seem like a small problem, but cans and tubes spilling out over your vanity are unattractive and frustrating.
What’s one of the biggest problems that homeowners have when downsizing, living in the same space for a long time, or adding more members to a family? Bathroom storage! It might seem like a small problem, but cans and tubes spilling out over your vanity are unattractive and frustrating. How can you integrate extra storage into your existing bathroom? Here are some tips to make your space store more.
A-drawer-able
One of the most obvious ways to add storage to any space is to add drawers or a drawer system. Cupboards are commonplace in bathrooms, but sets of drawers can really help with bathroom organization and storage. In terms of capacity, they can fit many more small or medium-sized items and keep them more accessible.
Bring Your Dead Space to Life
Your bathroom probably has a decent amount of dead space depending on the layout and size. Almost every bathroom has a blank empty space over the toilet, for example. Floating storage or floating shelves are very easy to install and even easier to use for overflow storage of commonly used items like towels, guest toiletries, or toilet paper rolls.
A-Tisket A-Tasket
Just like the nursery rhyme says (well, indirectly), a basket could be what’s missing from your bathroom. Any open shelving can be transformed into a major space-saving solution by adding baskets. Baskets can replace drawers if those aren’t an option for your bathroom. Struggling with toiletries for three or more? Give each family member a separate basket for storage.
Be Smart Under the Sink
The space under your sink is almost always full of clutter, whether it’s extra hand soap, half-empty bottles of various cleaners, or a hodge podge of everything that didn’t have a logical storage space. The plumbing fixtures and pipes underneath further complicate things because you can’t exactly move them somewhere else! Consider hiding the plumbing and liberating the rest of the under-sink area so that you can stow what you need to and keep it organized. There are many vanity styles available that will afford you the practicality and style you want with the functions you need.
