3 Inventive DIY Bathroom Storage Ideas For Small Bathrooms

Is storage space tight in your tiny bathroom? Have you run out of room for towels or beauty essentials? Here are a few inspiring DIY bathroom storage ideas and clever hacks to help you create more bathroom space and get organized.

DIY a Basket Wall

Rustic woven baskets lining the wall look attractive and make a great storage option for a small bathroom. Furthermore, woven baskets are versatile and look nice holding rolled hand towels, beauty lotion, and any other ideas you have.

Tools
  • Screwdriver
  • Drill
  • Level
  • Measuring tape
  • Pencil
  • Putty knife (if needed)
  • Paint roller (if needed)
  • Paint tray (if needed)
Materials
  • Towel bar(s)
  • Lightweight decorative baskets
  • Craft ribbon
  • Sandpaper (if needed)
  • Self-adhesive drywall joint tape (if needed)
  • Spackling paste (if needed)
  • Primer (if needed)
  • Paint (if needed)
Instructions

If you have an existing towel bar in your bathroom that allows space for the baskets to be hung, then you can skip to Step 5 to hang the baskets.

Step 1 – Remove the Existing Towel Bar

If your old bathroom towel bar doesn’t leave enough space to hang the baskets, it will need to be replaced. If it is attached with screws, use a screwdriver to detach the bar and remove it from the wall.

Note: It might take a little pulling or twisting to make it lose!

Step 2 – Patch and Paint Wall Holes

If any holes are the size of a dime or larger, patch with joint drywall tape and then spackle. Cover the hole and the area around it as well.

For smaller holes, patch with spackling paste. When the spackle is dry, sand it with a small square of sandpaper until smooth. Prime and paint the wall to match the existing paint color.

Step 3 – Hanging New Towel Bars

Hang the new towel bars according to package directions. Depending on your available bathroom space, get one or two bars with enough vertical space between them to hang your decorative baskets.

Use a level to make sure the bars are horizontally straight.

Step 4 – Hang The Baskets

Cut two lengths of craft ribbon for each basket. Choose which side of the basket you want to hang. Loop a piece of ribbon next to each corner on that side of the basket.

Tie the ribbon around the towel bar to hang the baskets. Lastly, slide the baskets along the bar to center them.

  • Tips: You can also use S hooks to hold up the baskets. Dress up the look of the S hooks by tying on craft ribbon bows.

This idea also works great in a mudroom to store gloves and keys or inside a kitchen pantry door.

DIY Plate and Candlestick 2-Tier Bath Stand

Make more room on your bathroom counter or vanity with pretty and new easy-to-make storage space. All you need is two thrift store plates, a candlestick, and glue. This 2-tier DIY bathroom vanity stand is perfect for showing off jewelry, makeup, or perfume.

Tools and Materials
  • Two thrift store plates (one should be smaller than the other, like a dinner plate and a salad plate)
  • Candlestick (or any ceramic/glass object that has a sturdy base with a flat top and bottom, like a small decorative vase or a drinking glass)
  • Epoxy glue
  • Heavy books or paperweights
  • Tape measure (optional)
  • Pencil (optional)
Instructions

Step 1 – Following the package instructions, apply the epoxy glue to the top of the candlestick. Position it on the back center of the smaller plate. If necessary, mark the plate’s exact center back with a tape measure and pencil.

Step 2 – Place a few heavy books on the candlestick to weigh it down. Let the glue dry overnight.

Step 3 – To attach the larger plate, apply glue to the bottom of the candlestick. Find the center on the front side of the large plate. Then place the candlestick (with the small plate attached) on top of the large plate.

Step 4 – Place a few small books or paperweights on the top and a small plate for weight. Then let it dry overnight.

Tips:

  • Inexpensive new or used plates and candlesticks are available at dollar stores and thrift stores.
  • For a one-tier stand, follow steps 1 and 2 above.
