Your bathroom is your retreat, where you can find a little bit of quiet time for a shower, bath or just to prepare yourself for your day. The more people that are living in your home the more ‘stuff’ you are going to find in your bathroom. Your bathroom is going to appear cluttered and so small if you don’t organize your bathroom and maximize your space.
Here we are going to talk about the average 6’ x 7’ bathroom, with a tub /shower combination, a small two foot vanity with sink, with doors that open for space under the sink storage because most often we don’t find drawers in the smaller vanities. In your small bathroom you might have a medicine cabinet while others don’t, so imagine where everything would go if you didn’t have a medicine cabinet at all!
Let’s organize your shower and tub first.
If you have small children in your home, you are going to need to keep all razors up high. Most all showers have a little ledge on the top where you can easily put your razor out of children’s reach. If for some reason you don’t have a little ledge at the top of your shower, installing a very thin small hook at the top of the shower, you can hang your razor on it. Or, if you like, you can install a toothbrush holder at the top of the shower so all razors are out of the way.
Using a shower caddy that will fit over the showerhead is going to keep your soap, washcloth and your shampoo all in one location. No more little squishy soap when you use a shower caddy that has spaces in it to let out the water long after you are done taking a shower. Squeezing the top wires of the shower caddy together it will keep from slipping.
Now onto your sink….
Keep a pretty basket on the sink. You can keep your combs, dental floss, brushes and misc. things like nail clippers or emery boards all within reach. This little basket is a catch all for the things you can’t put in a drawer. Use an old pastel basket from Easter if you don’t want to go out and buy a new basket.
