This will undoubtedly clear up a ton of closet and shelf space. It’s excellent for storage and to make the bathroom look neat. What are you waiting for?
Bigger bathrooms can lack space too, believe it or not. Storage space, that is. This bathroom doesn’t have many cabinets or drawers but the added wall shelves make a world of a difference. Just look at the difference they make!

22. Mason jar wall organizer
We just can’t seem to get enough of mason jars! These are just as great as the ones before. However, these are attached to a wall which clears up counter space. They also aren’t decorated which, for this particular bathroom, fit beautifully.
These might not be mason jars but they sure are handy. These definitely have the advantage of being much larger where more things can be stored in them. Who doesn’t love a classy style?
If you didn’t see this one coming, you’re not alone. These picture frames have been put to great use. Talk about being resourceful. You can

Can you believe that this is a plant holder?! Albeit, it’s upside down which makes it a perfect storage unit. The best part? It’s unlikely that your family and friends would even know the difference!
26. Expand your medicine cabinet
We’re not saying to literally expand it. Rather, utilize all that it has to offer. Try hanging little baskets or other small items in it, like lip balm, to create more space in your cabinet. It can be so easy!

29. Under-the-sink pullout baskets
These are great for organization as well as clearing up space. Fortunately, you can find them just about anywhere. Try them out for yourself to see why they have become so popular.
30. Shower door towel rack
If you don’t have space for a towel rack or simply haven’t found a design you like, give this one a try. Of course, you’ll need a hard surface to apply it to (no curtains). But this is one sleek style that can also save you space.
This narrow table is the perfect decoration because it adds extra shelf space to an already small bathroom. Plus, a pop of color can help turn any room into a more pleasant one.
32. Hair accessory holder
We all know that hair products can take up a significant amount of space. This cute and stylish holder is all you’ll need to remove those big products from the counter. It’s great for at home and at work.

34. Built-in towel rack behind the door
The nice things about these racks is that by simply choosing the finish, it can give your bathroom a very modern feel. Instead of installing one rack, why not do two? Your guests will thank you!
Another cheap and easy fix! These trays can be bought from the dollar store and used to organize the items on your sink and counter. They do say that a little goes a long way.
These little baskets sure can come in handy! You can clean up your space with this great-looking basket. Organization is key in helping to create space.
37. Above-the-toilet wall shelves
Shelves above the toilet can be great for making extra room in the bathroom. You can even choose how many shelves you prefer. As stated before, don’t be afraid to place a basket or tray on the toilet tank.
Now here’s something that you don’t see everyday. But boy does it work here. What stunning decor!

41. Under-the-tub storage
Your guests will never know! That is, unless they go looking around. This isn’t a very common concept but it is a pretty cool one. What a great way to help organize those crowded under-the-sink cabinets.
It might not look like a popular towel rack but it defintiely gets the job done. It’s super easy to install and will help save up some closet space. You’ll thank yourself later.
43. Wall shelf near the sink
Similar to wall shelves found elsewhere on the list, there’s no limit to where you can install them. Rather than look for items with wet hands, simply reach over to grab them. We highly suggest installing these shelves if space is what your bathroom lacks.
If you prefer to have your items hidden from view, consider installing shelves on the inside of the door. If you want to avoid the handy work, just purchase an over-the-door rack. It might not fit as nicely though.

If your shower is really close to your toilet and you struggle with shower curtains because of it, think about doing away with curtains altogether. Here, a glass wall was installed to free up space. It looks wonderful!
It might not do much in helping to organize the bathroom, however, it’s great for making your bathroom appear larger than it is. Just like paint colors, the visual appeal of mirrors is pleasantly surprising. Sometimes, it’s the little things.
Also, we sometimes notice things are out of place in a room or don’t look as great as we thought after seeing it in a mirror!
47. Over-the-door shelves
Fear not! Not all over-the-door shelves require installation. Plenty can be placed, you guessed it, over the door. But if you’re looking for something more sturdy and that doesn’t bang around when the door is opened or closed, look into installing one.

48. Under-the-tub storage with shelves
Unlike the under-the-tub storage prior, this one has shelves installed inside of the walls. How awesome is that? In addition, feel free to use the extra floor space for cleaning products that might not fit on the shelf.
Drawer dividers are a tidy person’s dream. You’ll be able to find items in no time. Just make sure to place a shelf liner in beforehand. Voilà! All done.
