9 Best Ways to Stay Organized in Your Bathroom
9 Best Ways to Stay Organized
in Your Bathroom
Hi! This is Anna from My Bathrooms blog. Today I will give you best tips on how to stay organized in your bathroom. You can follow us here Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Google Plus.
The bathroom is often the busiest, and, simultaneously, the
smallest, room in the home, and, as such, needs an awful lot of organizing,
sometimes on a daily basis. Follow these nine hints and tips to ensure that an
unexpected visitor will never disturb your aplomb by keeping your bathroom
beautifully organized and gleaming at all times, even if you have a large and
messy family!
1. First In, First Out
Order bathroom products by expiry date to ensure that all
the goods are used promptly and before time can wreak any havoc on them. If a
certain product has not been used by the time its recommended use-by date comes
around, bin it anyway: it is highly unlikely to become more appealing with the
passage of any more time.
2. Go Up the Wall!
Rather than let clutter and mess drive you up the wall, take
a firm hand and send clutter up there instead! Invest in wall-mounted towel
rails, floating shelves and small cabinets that can hang securely in an
unobtrusive spot offering valuable storage while opening up tracts of precious
floor-space.
3. Dividers, Little Pots and Tubs
Rather than dumping a heap of small but necessary cosmetics,
hair bands and clips into a large drawer and having to rummage through it for
ages every time that you want something, pop each set of items in their own
individual caddy. You will be pleasantly surprised at how much difference it
can make to have everything you need immediately to hand!
4. Nix the Freebies!
While it can be so tempting to keep free stuff: hotel
miniatures, free samples and gift boxes, and can seem like an enormous waste to
throw them away, do not be sentimental about such items. If you are definitely
going to use them, great, but if you are simply going to hold onto them for
months or even years without being tempted to use them each time you bath, then
cut them loose!
5. Go Under!
Under basin storage is an extremely useful place for spare
supplies (toothpaste, shampoo, toilet rolls) as well as those products needed
to keep the bathroom gleaming.
6. Daily Round
Get in the habit of cleaning the bathroom every day. While
other rooms can occasionally get by with a lick and a promise, bathrooms
cannot! Toothpaste splatter, soap scum and other unsavoury residue accumulates
at an astonishing rate in the bathroom, so stay on top of it constantly.
7. Electronic Section
If you use electronic goods inside the bathroom (which you
really should not, it is not a safe practice at all!) keep them together in a
waterproof drawer or cabinet and return them promptly after use, having allowed
the hairdryer, curling tongs or straighteners to cool down first.
8. Look Up!
Install an over door shelf. These small and inconspicuous
shelves add a useful amount of space for bulk purchases of toilet rolls or
bottles of hand-wash, for example.
9. If In Doubt: Store More!
Add more storage if in doubt! If you can fit another shelf
or rail or cabinet into the bathroom go for it! With the high traffic
experienced by most bathrooms every scrap of space will be well-appreciated and
used – and it will all help to ensure that there is, as the saying goes ‘a
place for everything’.

Wow These look amazing! I wish my bathroom looked like any of these! Mine is so small we can't even fit a bath in - just a shower, sink and toilet and no storage room :-( It's a small house but I do love it!
