Use Hooks Instead of Towel Bars!
When it comes to organizing small or large bathrooms, hooks are a must-have! Â Where a towel bar might hold two towels, in the same amount of space you could have four hooks! Â Simply affix decorative hooks into the wall and assign each person that uses the bathroom their own hook to store their towel. Â Make sure to also install an extra hook or two for hand towels. Â This will help to keep the counter clutter-free! Â Hooks will help towels dry better and look so much more tidy!

Hang Command Hooks on the Inside of Cabinet Doors!
In addition to hooks on the wall, you can also attach removable Command Hooks on the inside of cabinet doors for extra storage space! Â This will help maximize the space of your cabinets, while providing extra spots to hang things out of sight… like makeup bags, brushes, handheld mirrors, hair dryers, etc.
Control Clutter with a Paper Towel Holder for Scrunchies!
Are scrunchies taking over your bathroom countertops and drawers? Â My favorite way to keep them organized and tidy is on a paper towel holder! Â They fit perfectly, and can stack up so nice and tidy!
Add Small Shelving Units on Each Side of a Pedestal Sink!
One of the hardest places to organize can be a small bathroom with a pedestal sink. Â They look so nice and tidy, but don’t really have any storage space! Â The solution here is to just add matching narrow shelving units {just shorter than the sink} on each side of the pedestal. Â Just know your measurements when shopping for pieces that will work, and if you can’t find any… I’d suggest building simple ones that you can paint and sand down for a trendy look. Â Then, use the shelves to store extra clean towels, and toiletries in decorative baskets.

Organize Your Bathroom Counter Space with Countertop Baskets!
Is clutter taking over your bathroom counter tops? Â Create a little catch-all station using miniature baskets for the items you use each day. Â I love to keep my oils, serums, and day creams in this cute little basket I picked up at Target.
Maximize Space Underneath the Sink with Stackable See-Through Bins:
I like to make sure I’m using every square inch of space underneath my bathroom sinks, and a simple way I’ve found to do that is just by stacking items as high as I can. Â My favorite tidy tip is to use labeled, see through plastic bins for items I don’t need to get to very often.

I bought a vintage triple jam caddy. Glass bodies and metal lids w/ finials. Hubby used a polishing drill bit for the lids and they came out like new! Now it holds all the things we use daily-cotton rounds, Q-tips and dental floss plcks. Voila!
Sinea Pies says
I use a plastic dish pan under the bathroom sink to hold the cleaning supplies. Just bring it out when your cleaning, put it right back when you’re done.
Julie Howe says
I bought a roll of ribbon for a little over a dollar and cut it into several lengths, about 12″ each. I nailed each one to the wall and fastened barrettes. I separated them by length, as well, so now it’s easy to find a short barrette, etc. when getting ready in the morning.
