27 Bathroom Organization Ideas For The Best Storage

The first step to an organized bathroom is gathering loose products and putting them in containers.

I think clear, acrylic boxes are especially a great idea for storing back-up toiletries. They make it so easy to keep track of what you have and can easily fit under your bathroom sink!

One of the most useful items I have ever purchased has been a makeup organizer like this one. A complete game-changer to avoid leaving behind a mess anytime you get ready and save same space in your bathroom drawers.

It’s truly a great solution, especially if you move your makeup products in between rooms depending on where you’re getting ready for the day.

Small trays will be your best friends if you tend to leave behind a collection of jewelry anytime you need to take a shower. Invest in a cute marble tray and keep your counters tidy and your accessories safe!

Something like this is also perfect to store perfumes or a hand soap/hand lotion combo.

A bathroom drawer organizer is a must-have to optimize your drawer space. However, it can be challenging to find containers that fit your drawers perfectly, especially if you’re working with a custom piece.

Adjustable organizers are simple solutions that can help you replicate the look of a professional organizer but with more flexibility.

Gorgeous hardware is a staple of any beautiful bathroom. If you don’t have any existing storage for your towels, make sure to invest in a few stunning towel bars.

By choosing a set that includes a variety of sizes, you’ll be able to keep all your towels organized. I especially like this idea if you’re organizing a guest bathrooms as it can help to keep extra hand towels available and makes it clear for guests which items they can use.

If you don’t have much room in your bathroom, look into a creative usage of vertical space. This self-standing unit is renter-friendly (no need to drill holes into tiles) and turns an empty wall into a set of convenient shelves.

You can use this space to store additional toilet paper, or to display some bathroom decor like a diffuser, woven baskets, and similar items.  

A set of pretty baskets is the quickest way to turn additional storage into a core part of your decor. Wicker baskets, and woven designs in general, are timeless pieces that look elegant and add an organic touch to your bathroom.

I love them to keep extra toilet paper readily available. You could even opt for a model with a lid to make it a more discrete storage solution.

If your bathroom space and budget allow it, consider investing in a small closet. Having a closed storage option in addition to standard bathroom cabinets provides a great place to keep clean towels, protecting them from dust.

I also like this solution to keep cleaning supplies available directly in the bathroom but perfectly hidden. It’s so convenient considering how often it needs to be cleaned!

I’m sure there are at least a few items you use on a daily basis for your skin care or morning routine. In a perfectly organized bathroom, this pieces should be kept within easy reach. There is no point in organizing something to the point where it looks great but it’s less functional.

A small tiered shelf may be exactly what you need. I especially like this one as it can upgrade a small corner, maximizing the use of space in your bathroom.

I’m sure I am not the only one who struggles to store neatly my hair dryer, curling iron, and straightener. It always ends up as a mess of cables. That’s why as soon as I saw this storage basket, it ended up on my wish list!

I love how multi-functional it is and how it can even hold your hair care tools as they cool down. No more double-checking that you unplugged your flat iron every 5 minutes!

Apothecary jars or glass mason jars are the perfect solution to store smaller items like cotton balls, hair ties, bubble bath salts, or even cotton swabs.

They are more upscale than a small plastic bin and look extra curated when you add beautiful labels onto them. Their transparency also makes it easy to keep track of what items you’re running out of.

Wire baskets are an extremely convenient solution if you’re looking for a versatile and affordable way to gather loose products.

You can choose to place them inside a particularly deep drawer, keep them in your cabinets, or even hang them directly on the wall via the adhesive. A true staple of bathroom organization ideas!

A utility cart is an amazing idea if you don’t have any cabinetry in your bathroom. For example, it can help provide some storage if you have a pedestal sink.

I also like this solution if you’re still in the middle of finalizing your bathroom decor. It can be moved around if you need to change the layout and can easily be re-used across the home later on.

If you can relate to the struggle of trying to find a specific bottle in a set of beauty products, deep down your cabinets, get ready to leave the past behind. A lazy Susan will make sure you have direct sight on all your products at all times.

Unlike the ones you see in kitchen organization, opt for a tray with a taller border to help keep your products in place.

If you’re working with a small space, using the back of your door is a great way to add storage to your bathroom. All you need is an over-the-door organizer. They require almost no installation effort and can immediately multiply your storage options.

I love this one from Amazon as each shelf is adjustable from a height perspective, giving you more flexibility depending on what you plan on keeping in it.

This is a small organization trick, but one that can truly make a difference. if you’re anything like me, I’m sure you hate seeing abandoned razors in your shower. They simply make everything look so messy!

Invest in a set of adhesive razor holders and stick them to your shower walls to never have to deal with this problem again. This solution also helps your razor dry more quickly, making it more hygienic. A win-win situation!

While shelf space is useful from a storage perspective, I’m a firm believer that you also need some open surface to keep your decor organized and in plain sight.

An affordable way to do so is by installing a set of floating shelves above your toilet or by your sink. Opt for black wood for a modern, minimalist look. Glass works instead if you love a vintage, more elegant design.

Nothing will make a bathroom feel more unorganized than a sprawl of random products laying on the floor. One of the first things I recommend you invest in is a shower caddy.

Opt for a model with plenty of storage solutions for your products and accessories alike and turn your wall space into the perfect organization hack!

If your bathroom only has a single towel bar, consider adding a few towel hooks to store bath towels and robes right by your shower.

Don’t settle for cheap, plastic ones. You can find plenty of beautiful options that can simply be attached to the wall by adhesive, making them perfect even if you’re renting!

While keeping the counter by your bathroom sink tidy is important, you also shouldn’t forget about the available space underneath.

Under-sink cabinets often end up filled with random items and the space is rarely optimized. Consider investing in pull-out acrylic drawers to create tiered storage and guarantee easy access to all your important bathroom items.

If your bathroom has a linen closet, this is the perfect place to start your organization journey and store properly your bulkier items. There are plenty of fun ways to improve your linen closet organization, making it both more functional and useful.

While a small stool is not necessarily a must-have for organization, it can make for a good place to store a clean towel or change of clothes as you’re taking a shower.

I also love it to keep a scented candle nearby when I’m taking a bath or to display a small potted plant to add some greenery to the space.

I love the idea of storing additional period products inside a toilet holder. It’s such a genius way to make sure they are always within reach.

I think this organization hack would also work well in a half bathroom where you can keep sanitizing wipes available for your guests.

If you love to do your nails, you know the struggle or organizing a million tiny nail polish bottles. It’s one of those small items that accumulates easily and can be challenging to store in a tiny bathroom.

Let me introduce you to the solution to this problem: narrow acrylic shelves. These simple but cute shelves will transform your bathroom into a beauty center, doubling as a storage space and display for your stunning nail polish collection.

Bathroom organization does not need to be fancy or expensive. If you are looking for an affordable solution, you can achieve great results even with something as simple as a small plastic bin.

Personally, I love these plastic containers with a woven design as they look a bit more upscale than more simple, basic ones.

Good housekeeping is a must-have for a clean and organized bathroom. I am a firm believer that it’s easier to keep on top of a cleaning schedule when things are easy and convenient.

That’s why I think it’s a great solution to include in your bathroom organization a dedicated slot for your cleaning supplies. I use a similar cleaning caddy and I find it so convenient as I’m moving across the room.
