Bathroom Storage Ideas That Actually Work

Ways to add storage to a bathroom of any size, from vanity drawers and recessed shelves to linen towers and shower niches.

Know what you store

List the items you use daily, weekly and rarely. Daily items should be within easy reach, and rare items can live higher or farther away.

Many Nashville homeowners are surprised how much belongs in a nearby closet instead.

We design storage around your list.

Use the vanity well

Deep drawers hold more than shelves and avoid the pipe zone with cutouts. Dividers keep small items from sliding around.

Outlets inside drawers keep hair tools ready and out of sight.

We plan the vanity interior, not only the outside.

Go between the studs

Recessed shelves and medicine cabinets use wall depth without sticking out. They are best planned before walls are closed.

We check for pipes and wires before cutting.

A recessed niche can be a surprisingly useful addition.

Go tall

Linen towers, over-toilet shelves and tall narrow cabinets use vertical space. Adjustable shelves fit changing needs.

Doors that close quietly make the room feel calm.

We match finishes to the vanity so the room looks planned.

In the shower

Niches and corner shelves keep bottles off the floor and the tub edge. Plan heights for the products you use.

Slope the base slightly so water drains.

We build niches into the tile plan from the start.

Our advice in one sentence

Plan storage for what you really use, and give daily items the easiest spots.

Questions

Quick answers.

Where can I add storage in a tiny bathroom?

Between studs, over the toilet and in a tall narrow tower. We check the room.

Do recessed shelves leak heat?

They can on exterior walls. We choose interior walls or add insulation.

Are drawers better than doors?

Often yes for daily items. We combine both in many designs.
