Bathroom organization can feel like a losing battle. If you give the enemy an inch, by starting to leave things on the counter, you'll lose a mile, and end up with clutter everywhere. The best defense is a good offense.
Aggressive Pre-Emptive Organization
The best way to keep clutter contained is to give everything its own storage space. To do this, you need bathroom organization accessories. Specifically, you need a:
Shower Caddy
Probably 80% of all bathrooms use the side of the tub to store some bottles or soap. Not only is this a safety hazard, but it also looks terrible and cluttered. Soap and shampoo can drip onto the porcelain, collecting dirt and grime. Any illusion of your bathroom being planned and pre-meditated goes right out the window. Be part of the top 20% and buy enough shower caddies to hold all your shower items.
Dispenser(s)
You absolutely should have an attractive and compact soap dispenser. This just looks so much better than plastic bottles of hand soap or a soap dish. You can also get liquid dispensers for your shower to further reduce clutter and get that "hotel" look.
Hair Dryer Caddy
Most people dry their hair in their bathroom, and most people also leave the dryer on the counter. Between the bulky dryer and the power cord, this is a one-item bathroom cluttered. Give it a neat place on the wall or on the side of your counter with a nifty hair dryer holder.
Shower Shaving Mirror
Razors and shaving cream cans have a way of multiplying around your countertop. They also have a way of rusting and leaving pools of brown water everywhere.Fix this by putting a shaving mirror with a razor mirror in your shower. Not only will shavers get a better shave, thanks to pore-opening steam and a close-up mirror, but also you get a dedicated spot for razors tucked out of sight.
Toilet Caddy
You might have reading material or magazines in your bathroom, or you might often have to put out an extra roll of toilet paper to make sure that guests don't run out. In these cases, there is no way without a caddy to prevent your bathroom from looking cluttered. However, if there are designated places for a spare roll and a magazine, then everything looks ordered and beautiful.
Matching Accessories
Speaking of ordered and beautiful, when you're buying accessories, try to get finishes that match each other. Commit to one type of finish- wood, chrome, satin-nickel, or bronze- and run with it. The more your accessories match, the less "visual clutter" there will be. Matching bathrooms look less cluttered than non-matching ones, even if they're organized in the exact same way.
