How clean is your bathroom? If you’re like most of us, though you try your best to keep your bathroom clean, it inevitably becomes a cluttered mess in no time. If this sounds familiar, then try these bathroom organization tips to help keep toiletries out of the way, yet right within reach.
Ah, the under the sink area; a prime culprit for bathroom clutter. Sure, it’s a great place to store items, but just how easy is it to grab one thing without knocking half a dozen other items over? Best way to overcome this dilemma: the Gray Expandable Under Sink Shelf. This steel mesh, two tier shelf adjusts between 1.5 and 2.5 feet to fit tight storage areas in the bathroom. Five removable panels on each shelf allow pipes to go through without intrusion; a very clever design feature rarely found in this type of organizer. Great for both toiletries and cleaning supplies. Not a bad idea for taming any organizational disasters under your kitchen sink, too.
The areas over the toilet and next to the sink are oft-overlooked for available storage space. Find a good organizational unit, and you’re in business. The Over Toilet Storage and Sink Saver Organizer create ample storage in small places. The base unit features a neutral design that complements any décor; fits over all standard fixtures and includes two storage towers with toilet and tissue dispensers. Combine the base with a top unit featuring open shelves and two additional towers for more organization. The ultra-compact vanity unit adds storage next to the sink with easy access to your favorite accessories. Its smart design offers drawer with dividers, a magazine rack and attractive frosted glass top.
The Over Door Two Basket Towel Rack is a must for those with tiny bathrooms. This miracle of organization hangs on any standard door – no tools required! Instantly transform the back of your bathroom door into a tidy, organized storage area. Stock the two baskets with frequently-used items such as lotions, hair-care products, cleansers and more. Hang your towels on the lower bar. Storage problem solved!
Cosmetics queens agree that make-up is a prime source of out-of-control clutter. Fortunately, there’s the Rolling Make-Up Cart, a secret of big-city beauty aficionados. This 37 1/2 x 18 1/2 x 11 3/4"organizes cosmetics, beauty supplies and hair-care products on four frosted glass shelves. The chrome frame even has a towel rack – major bonus. Four easy-gliding casters make this organizer a mandatory item for beauty mavens everywhere.
If your bathroom is so tiny, there isn’t even space to store a make-up cart, opt for the Hanging Expandable Make-Up Organizer. This useful organizer adjusts width from 11 to 18 inches, conforming to most drawers. Eight compartments of various sizes provide abundant extra space above a drawer’s existing contents. This provides lots of extra room for make-up, brushes, accessories or other personal items.
Without decent storage options, the shower area can be an organizational nightmare. There are many shower organizers available to suit any need or shower type. One popular catch-all is the Convertible Shower Caddy. Store that shampoo, conditioner and body wash in one tidy space with this smart, compact unit that hangs from the shower arm or can even be flipped over to hang from the door or wall. Shelves are deep and adjustable; great for larger bottles. For added stability, use the included suction cups.
Need extra shower storage? A Tension Pole Shower Organizer is the way to go. These spring-loaded, wall and ceiling-safe units can be installed without tools in seconds in your shower stall or tub to organize and store all your bathing necessities. Four large adjustable wire baskets can be placed anywhere on the pole to hold hair-care bottles and tubs, sponges, scrubs, soaps, and more. Also includes a towel bar for your washcloth and a hook for a shower brush or loofah.
The Double Dispenser with Shower Basket is a dream come true for the organizationally-obsessed. These uber-chic organizers are all the rage right now. Dispense your favorite shower liquids with push-button convenience. Pre-measured pump delivers the perfect amount every time. Unit also features handy storage hooks for razors and accessories. The smart, chrome-plated steel basket lends a clean, modern feel. Bring the spa to your home shower.
The blow dryer and brush: the Bonnie and Clyde of clutter… until now. Tame them with the Sure-Loc Hair Dryer Holder. Clear that counter top or under the sink. This clever hair dryer holder provides handy storage for both your blow dryer and brush. An industrial-strength rubber suction cup enables quick, secure installation sans tools. Works directly on smooth surfaces such as tile or glass or mirror, or use the adhesive disks (included) for installing on textured surfaces like drywall, wood or melamine cabinets. Install on the inside of the cabinet door, the side of a vanity or directly on the wall; the choice is up to you.
Now, you have all the resources you could ever need for a perfectly-organized bathroom. What will you do with all the time you save now? Hmmm, perhaps it’s time to tackle that kitchen clutter problem.
