Storage Ideas For Small Bathrooms

A Yellow and Green Basket, A-Tisket, A-Tasket

Most will agree that containers make excellent storage. They are pretty, come in different sizes and shapes, and many are fairly hardy. Attach of the identical size and color to a few curtain rods and you've got a trendy storage system.

Build It Right Into the Wall

Though better suited to construction or renovation, an integrated market or alcove in a shower will increase the storage capacity. It creates an interesting design element.

For All the Small Knick-Knacks

Everyday items aren't all that decorative, if you don't keep them in glass canisters and exhibited like artwork.

An Instance of Vertical Space

You can not have too many towel bars (well, maybe you can). Put in three for draping your towels stacking towel bars on the doorway, a seldom-used place.

Ladder Not Included

Space over the door is usually wasted. Adding a shelf provides storage space for extras like toilet paper or items that are rarely employed.

Best Ideas For Your Bathroom

MODERN ZEN

"The danger in doing a modern bathroom is that it can feel cold," says Pamela Butz, that remodeled this house near Boston with partner Jeffrey Klug. Their solution was a layout that errs on the side of simplicity, but with beautiful, natural substances that "speak for themselves."

NAUTICAL FINISHES

For his Nantucket house's master bath, designer Gary McBournie chose Waterworks hardware in unlacquered brass, so that it might tarnish and age. His goal was to tie back all the details to the house's nautical feeling.

SUSPENDED MIRROR

In an Atlanta family residence, the downstairs bathroom includes a pragmatic Oak Hill DXV console sink, which designer Matthew Quinn notes is both elegant and durable. The shower and bathroom are concealed from the Portico collection of Sunbrella fabrics of Thibaut behind curtains in Cabana Cloth. Solitude is allowed for by suspending a mirror in front of the window.

FRESH CITRUS

The powder room's existing citrus-yellow background within this colorful home appears even fresher with the addition of a window color in a chartreuse-yellow silk, trimmed in Barbara Barry's Tang Tassel -- equally by Krave.

SEE-THROUGH VANITY

Since there's no need to ditch regular necessities beneath a powder room sink, the vanity becomes strictly a statement piece. A Lucite-framed mirror in a zingy yellow continues the subject of transparency.
