To add extra storage to your teeny-tiny bathroom, look for a narrow shelving unit like A Fresh Space did here. You'll be surprised at how much extra space this provides. Plus, if you'd rather have a shelving unit that blends into your already-cramped space, use a glass one that doesn't take up much space visually.

Your bathroom countertops are a great spot for items you use daily, like makeup, soap, or face wash. But rather than lining everything up in a row, buy some clear countertop drawers for extra storage. It makes it easy to find what you need and doesn't take up much space.

Use Your Door

Your bathroom door is an oft-forgotten treasure trove of storage opportunities. The back of a bathroom door can hold rows of shelves and racks, perfect for bottles, brushes, and anything else you may need.
Label your shelves, like Neat Method NYC did here, so that you can keep everything in the correct spot.

Try Narrow Shelves

Store Items Where They're Needed

Convenience is a crucial part of organization—even the most perfectly organized bathroom closet will become frustrating if needed items are hard to get to. To remedy this, store items near where they're needed—shower items near the shower, toilet items near the toilet, and so on.

Store Underneath Your Sink
:strip_icc()/66396306_181435899541961_6853029634418185646_n-8e1de52f960b4cd0ad8e53d28e915d6d.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (9)")
It's time to restore the space under your sink. It's probably chaotic, messy and underused, and it doesn't need to be any of those things. Use stacking storage bins and baskets to organize items around plumbing and pipes, and you'll be left with a tidy space that's full of storage.

Install Bamboo Drawer Organizers

Store Away Your Big Items

Bulky bathroom items, like hair dryers and straighteners, have no place on the countertops of a pint-sized bathroom. They waste valuable counter-space and can make the bathroom look cluttered. Instead, store big items away in drawers and cabinets, using bins and dividers to keep them organized.
12of 22
Add a Ladder Shelf
:strip_icc()/118287590_366005627733521_8192884274899931938_n-3a0df0ff178042348374a2d414d171af.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (13)")
Ladder shelves are a space-saving shelving solution—perfect for a small bathroom. Ladder shelves are a great way to store bathroom linens and excess toiletries, like Breathing Room Organization did here.

Use Lazy Susans

It's important not to waste any space in small bathrooms, including wall space over the toilet. The space over the toilet is a good spot for a few shelves or an over-the-toilet rack, both of which can hold towels, baskets, or jars.
15of 22
Don't Waste Deep Drawers
:strip_icc()/61627700_2123826767716329_5109153036961691445_n-39aa61d9496e4adabd6ec479d65c4fe8.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (16)")
Many vanities now have one or two deep drawers rather than a row of shallow ones. If you have a small bathroom, it's crucial that you use all the space you have. To do this with deeper drawers, use baskets to separate groups of items and stand things up, rather than laying them down.
16of 22
Install Clear Drawer Organizers
:strip_icc()/150213720_899577577538366_5659515137701845899_n-a57d0dc184394328b642ee11359c8673.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (17)")
Are your bathroom drawers filled with items that deserve to stand out, rather than be hidden away? Show off some of your favorite brands with clear drawer organizers, which provide a tidy look without distracting from the look of that luxury lipstick tube.

Add a Dish
:strip_icc()/133968984_239810254271066_8067776680487077389_n-63b11ecce87f4a8eb350fb47a612a5d5.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (18)")
Though your countertop shouldn't be the home of every single bathroom item, it often needs to be the home for your daily essentials. To keep this essentials looking organized, place them on a small dish, like Arbor & Co. did here. The dish provides a stylish place for your everyday items and keeps your countertop looking neat.

Try Under-the-Sink Drawers
:strip_icc()/239491811_994839754605517_7279175881575471402_n-620ee2fdd8ee49e8b89c7109cc4a49ae.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (19)")
Another way to efficiently use all the space under your sink is with drawers. Drawers ensure you can access items that are tucked all the way in the back, and they keep everything looking neat and put-together.
19of 22
Use a Rolling Cart
:strip_icc()/153321279_339012747424106_210088883198113649_n-71b6c21cc8bd4146a53fdd99ab2f0be1.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (20)")
Not only do rolling carts double as bar carts or craft carts, but they can also double as bathroom carts too. These slim shelves-on-wheels can hold extra linens and toiletries, and their top shelf can hold everyday items too.

Install a Shelf Over the Sink
:strip_icc()/Bungalow-11-874c4b97c52847a3b437f694995ee6bd.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (21)")
Another great place to install a shelf in your small bathroom? Above the sink! This works best if you have a mirror that sits high above the sink, otherwise this wall space is often wasted.
21of 22
Use in-Shower Storage
:strip_icc()/SFinteriors-19-c476823efeea4da7a6261c2cf0c2080c.jpg "22 Small Bathroom Organization Ideas We Can't Wait to Copy (22)")
Don't forget that your shower comes with plenty of storage opportunities too. Whether it's a built-in enclave for soaps and shampoos, or an over-the-showerhead rack with room for bottles and tubes aplenty, take advantage of the space your shower offers.

Try a China Cabinet

Narrow china cabinets aren't just for dining rooms anymore—they can work in bathrooms too. You don't want to use a family heirloom for this, but a used one from a thrift store can be a unique storage addition to your small bathroom.
