If your bathroom is anything like ours, you probably have an awful lot of hair products, styling tools, and other sundries cluttering up your countertop, shelving, and just generally making your bathroom feel smaller and dirty.

The first step to decluttering your bathroom is always to haul everything out into the light and then do a thorough purge. Hanging on to old, tattered poufs? Toss them. Old perfumes that have lost their luster? Ditch them.

Once you’ve finished purging, it’s time to DIY or purchase beautifying storage elements that maximize the function of your bathroom and fit with your decor. We’ve scoured the internet for some of the best and most attractive ways to add storage space to your bathroom and minimize clutter in the future.

So go ahead, find your favorite ideas and then start the purge! You’ll feel better when it’s complete, and your bathroom will look fantastic!

Decorative Makeup Brush Holder –  A simple glass candle holder filled with pebbles or coffee beans acts as a great way to keep your makeup brushes clean, organized, and in one place, rather than scattered across the countertops. Best of all, you’ll never have to hunt for the right brush again!

Cabinet Door Storage – The back of a cabinet door is a perfect spot to place smaller items that you use less often–extra toothpaste, nail polish, candles, or even extra toilet paper.

Stackable Storage Drawers – These metal stackable drawers are the perfect way to keep the cabinets under the sink neat and uncluttered. An empty cabinet just invites you to throw items haphazardly into the space.

DIY Bathroom Ledge – If you don’t have much countertop space, you might install a decorative ledge in your bathroom, like the one above these pedestal sinks. They add just a tad bit of extra space you’ll be glad you have.

DIY Wood Caddy – This homemade wooden bath caddy is a perfect countertop solution to keep your daily essentials organized and in one place. Additionally, use mason jars to hold smaller items, like cotton swabs or toothbrushes.

Over-the-Door Shelving – The space above the doorframe is usually under-utilized space. Using a wooden shelf and two large brackets, you can use this space for little-used items or for toilet paper storage.

Ladder Towel Storage – Vintage ladders might not be sturdy enough for you to climb, but they do make excellent towel racks.

Hooks –  Towel racks take up a lot of wall space, and only really have room to dry one towel. Replace it with a set of hooks to more than double your storage space.

DIY Daily Essentials Plate – A pretty and decorative tray made with two dinner plates and a dollar-store candle-holder is a great way to keep your essentials on hand without cluttering your countertop.
