Keeping your bathroom tidy on a budget
As bathrooms are so small and compact, people tend to have their products all over the sink and bath area which looks untidy. It can also be quite embarrassing having all your personal items on show when you have friends or guests using the bathroom. There are larger bathroom furniture items that can keep the bathroom tidy such as bathroom vanities, but if you are on a budget they are going to be too costly to buy and fit.
Instead of throwing you wet towel over the bath or shower door, you could buy a towel rail instead. Having the towel thrown over the bath looks untidy and the towel doesn't really get a chance to dry out. You don't really want guests drying their hands on a damp towel either. Towel holder can be attached to the bathroom wall using screws or you can buy a towel holder that hooks over the shower door. You can also find holders with suction cups, but as the towels are quite heavy, the holders tend to lose their grip and fall off. Towel bars and holders can be bought for as little as $10 online.
If you require an extra shelf within the bathroom, you could buy a towel rail that comes with a shelf. They take up the same amount of room, but you have the additional shelving that comes with the unit. Surprisingly, these towel shelves are not much more expensive and can be found for a few dollars more than one without a shelf.
To hide your personal products, you need to look at installing a cabinet. This can be free standing or wall mounted. You can have them designed to fit into the corner of the bathroom where most of the time the space is not utilized. Another option is to have a cabinet installed above the sink. Most of the time, the wall above the sink is empty or there is normally a mirror. You can buy a wall cabinet with a glass mirror door. This way you are able to have the extra storage and still be able to use the mirror for putting on makeup or washing your face.
The space under the sink can also be used for extra storage. This is where most people would have a vanity, but you could buy a couple of weaved baskets that come with a lid. If matched with the rest of the bathroom color, they will not look out of place.
