Amazing Ways to Utilize Wall Storage

More Ways to Use the Backs of Doors:

  • Use towel bars on the door to store towels
  • Build Your Own Closet Organizer for Cheap
  • Our Linen Closet Makeover
  • Nursery Storage Makes Great Bathroom Storage too!

Pro Tip: These hooks work on wet surfaces too! I have them hanging on our shower walls.

Small Bathroom Counter Storage Ideas

How To Install a Recessed Cabinet: Cut the drywall, measure the space between studs and buy an appropriately sized medicine cabinet. Most are standard sized because modern homes require specific spacing between studs. This project takes less than an hour!

And how cute are these flowerpots cups? I have also seen similar ideas using mason jars, plastic cups, and toothbrush cups designed to stick on the wall.

Clever Small Bathroom Organization Ideas

Having navigated life with several tiny bathrooms, one of my favorite sanity-saving tips is to set up a vanity area separate from the bathroom. This works especially well for dorm-life or anyone with roommates sharing bathroom time/space.

13. A Slanted Shelf Takes up Less Space

A beautiful ladder shelf like this one, if you have the room, is great for a small bathroom. In some bathrooms, you can take advantage of the space between a toilet and the bath for shelves like these.

14. Build a Shelf Over the Door

Use every inch of space (even the space above the door)! Love this genius idea. While I find the shelf in the photo to be too high, there are many options that would be lower and make this easier to use every day.

Cabinet Organization Ideas

15. Utilize Cabinet Doors

Don’t forget small doors like on cabinets too! I have a post dedicated to the best ideas for kitchen and bathroom cabinet storage.

21. Stacked Containers

How pretty is this?! These stacking and rotating containers are pretty enough to put on the counter and save space.
