24 Smart Storage Ideas to Make the Most of a Small Bathroom
Deck out your room with these space-saving shelves, cabinets, and wall organizers.
Since the bathroom is where you clean up, it's only fitting that you try your best to make it the tidiest room in your house. That means no countertop clutter, towels on the floor, or rogue electronics and wires scattered about. Give everything — makeup, cleaning products, extra linens, and more — a home and keep your everyday essentials at your fingertips with these small bathroom storage ideas. While these DIY or easy-to-buy ideas cater to different styles and spaces, most of these space-saving tricks have one thing in common: They make the most of vertical spaces (think: above the door, in the shower, and under the sink) to bring cabinets, shelves, and other organizers into the small (but mighty) room.

Get Smart With Toilet Paper
Our bet is that your bathroom is tight on floor space. If that's true, then don't waste it on stand-up toilet paper holders. Instead, place a few rolls into a basket atop the toilet. Convenient and cute!

Double Up on Rods
Instead of cramming conditioner on the tub edge, outfit the shower with a second rod near the wall. S-hooks keep loofahs and small caddies out of the way (and not falling all over the place).

Take Advantage of Cabinet Doors
Don't neglect the back of your cabinet doors. Keep flat irons, blow dryers, and brushes at hand and out of sight in space-saving bins, which you can attach straight to the door.
