Bathroom Storage Hacks to Help You Get Ready Faster

Your bathroom is a multipurpose room often shared by two or more people who frequently need to use it simultaneously. Getting ready each morning can be made much easier with storage solutions that will keep your cabinets, drawers, and countertops organized and manageable.

Our tips for maximizing your storage will work for any size bathroom in your home.

Use Your Wall Space

For bathrooms, functionality comes first. Use as much wall space as you need to add storage. This is especially true for bathrooms used by children, who will be much more likely to put things away when they can see where they belong instead of having to open a drawer or cabinet. It’s also helpful in small bathrooms where storage may be limited.

Hooks

  • Use hooks for towels, robes, and pajamas.
  • Add hooks inside cabinets for storing hair dryers and hair brushes.
  • You can add hooks with suction cups inside the shower for back scrubbers, loofahs, and washcloths.

Shelves

  • Add floating shelves above the sink for additional storage. If you don’t have a lot of cabinet space, you can install a narrow shelf for each person who uses the bathroom.
  • You can install shelving over the toilet for storing towels.
  • Install a recessed niche in your shower if you are remodeling your bathroom.

Over the Door – and Above It

  • Install a multi-hook door hanger for additional storage
  • Hang a shelf over the top of the door to store extras of soap, shampoo, and other toiletries and bath supplies

Maximize Your Cabinet and Drawer Storage

Inside your cabinets and drawers, there is a lot of room for organization tools to make your bathroom easier to use and more functional. At Art of Drawers, we specialize in making the most of drawers and cabinets to maximize access, storage, and organization. Call us today to see what we can do to transform your home into a more joyful space.

Pull-Out Shelves

Stop wasting money buying supplies that you already have. And wasting time searching for what you are sure is there by installing pull-out shelving in your bathroom cabinets. This simple solution will make your under-sink storage area so much more functional. In addition, it will improve other cabinet storage in your bathroom by allowing you to see what you have. And you’ll find what you need without pulling out every item one by one.

Lazy Susans

If your cabinets are too small for pull-out shelves, get a small lazy Susan to make it easier to find what you need.

Magnetic Strips

Install magnetic strips to store tweezers, scissors, bobby pins, eyelash curlers, and other small items.

Organizers and Containers

Bathroom drawers and cabinets that are a jumble of cosmetics, lotions, creams, and other necessities make it hard to find what you need every day. Adding organizers to your drawers will make it so much easier to keep things sorted in bathrooms used by a whole family. Label each organizer with who it belongs to or what goes in it to remind everyone to stay organized every day.

Use Floor Space

Baskets or Bins

If there is extra floor space – for example, between the toilet and the vanity or between the vanity and the bathtub – get some baskets or bins that will fit to store towels. If the space is narrow, roll up the towels instead of folding them.

Rolling Cart

A rolling cart can be a great addition to a small bathroom. There are narrow ones that can be tucked away or pushed up against a wall and pulled out for prep and bath time. Store your cosmetics and hair care supplies for an all-in-one morning routine storage solution.

Add a Skirt

If you have a pedestal sink, which many small bathrooms do, Add a skirt to the bottom of it to add hidden storage space where there is none.

Give Everyone a Portable Toiletry Kit

For small bathrooms that serve the needs of multiple people, give everyone a portable tote to carry their toiletries back and forth from the bathroom. This will be a huge space-saver for everyone! Then, use the space in the bathroom for extra items and larger things. This includes towels, bathrobes, tub toys for little ones, and extra-large bottles of soaps and shampoo.

Unpack Everything

If you are short on space, take everything out of its packaging before storing it in your bathroom. Toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, soap, cosmetics – almost everything you buy for personal care will have extra packaging that takes up space. Unpacking everything will reduce the space you need to store them all.

Store toilet paper in a basket on top of the toilet, where there’s plenty of unused room.

Fantastic service from start to finish! Art of Drawers offers a free in-home consultation, where their designer comes out to assess your space and create a custom plan tailored to your needs.

Living in a tiny condo in Midtown, Art of Drawers was instrumental in transforming my kitchen with their cabinet refacing services, more than doubling my usable cabinet and pantry space. Their work is 100% custom-made, tailored specifically to meet my needs. My designer worked with me from start to finish, ensuring everything was perfect. The project wasn’t considered complete, and my final payment wasn’t made until they confirmed I was fully satisfied. Their customer service exceeded all expectations, making this a high-impact kitchen remodel with a minimal investment. I highly recommend their refacing services!

After having my refacing project completed for about a month, I can confidently say I love the results and truly enjoy how much more efficient my space feels. Everything is now easy to access and organized, making daily tasks a breeze. The installer was great at communicating throughout the process, and the installation itself was smooth and professional. Thank you for a job well done!

From start to finish, this company was professional, offering competitive pricing and delivering exceptional results with my cabinet refacing project. I’ve already recommended them to several friends and neighbors without hesitation. I’m hoping to have them back soon for more home improvements. Absolutely love the fresh new look they created and the team that made it happen!

The experience was excellent from my first phone inquiry through to follow up. The designer was knowledgeable and patient. Her vision helped me see the space in my cabinet pantry differently. The pull out drawers were ready for installation within the projected timeline. The installer was efficient and respectful of my home. The installation was completed without a hitch. I appreciated their follow up visit to see the completed project and to answer any questions. I highly recommend this company and their work.

Thank goodness for discovering Art of Drawers! We recently downsized and found ourselves with an itty-bitty pantry and limited cabinet space. After a family referral, we contacted AOD for an estimate. From start to finish, they were completely professional.

Karen R.

We are so pleased to have pantry drawers to fit our needs exactly as wevhad envisioned. Downsizing meant less storage space so it helped tremendously to turn this kitchen pantry under a staircase into pull out drawers. It is still a walk-in pantry too! Thank you and we highly recommend this organizational and storage need to everyone.
