I know that getting organized is a huge new year goal for people, and I am part of that group this year. One of the few downsides of living in a 90 year old house is that there isn’t much storage. My bathroom (see a full breakdown of my renovation from last year here) is tiny!
I have a small vanity and that is it when it comes to storage. I was able to fit a lot of stuff in my vanity drawers, but they slowly started to overflow as I have become more focused on my skincare routine and collected more products. I also hated having to dig through drawers to find my products, so I knew I needed to make a change. I have a small corner next to my tub that used to have a little table, but didn’t offer much storage. I decided this is where a change needed to happen.
I purchased a simple white 3 tier shelf that fit perfectly in this space! I knew the 2 things I needed to relocate from the vanity to the shelf were my skincare and my makeup. I bought a cute pink tray to display my skincare because if I put it away in a basket, I probably wouldn’t use it daily like I need to. As for the makeup, I don’t wear much anymore (thanks quarantine), so I wrangled all of it into a basket to try to hide some clutter. The bottom shelf of this unit was perfect for towels, which used to be stored in my closet in my room; this was an issue if I forgot to grab a new one on laundry day and I had to air dry and put on clothes soaking wet!
My vanity drawers now have my other daily used items such as my toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, vitamins, etc. It’s so nice to have everything a little more spread out so I am not digging. The bottom of the vanity has a pull out drawer, which is perfect for my taller products like lotions and hair products.
I couldn’t be happier with how my much more functional my bathroom is now! Next up is the kitchen!
