This post breaks down easy small bathroom organization ideas that help you use every bit of space better.

Decorating a small bathroom can be really difficult. If you’re anything like my family, we keep a bunch of things in our bathrooms and we don’t exactly have an unlimited amount of space.

This is why it’s really important to become creative with your bathroom organization, especially when you have a smaller bathroom.

I collected the best small bathroom organization ideas I could find. I’ve already begun implementing some of them on my own, and the others are just some awesome, super creative space saving solutions for small bathrooms!

Small Bathroom Organization Ideas

1. Tiered Counter Tray

This first idea uses a tiered tray on the bathroom counter!

This is a really good idea for those running low on space, since maximizing vertical height is key when keeping a small bathroom organized.

These trays are really good at keeping the clutter contained and off the counter, which allows for the space to feel so much more well kept and organized.

To recreate, get any type of tiered tray that fits your bathroom corner counter space. Be wary of wood, as water can seep into it and potentially cause mold.

2. Curved Corner Tray

This is another idea using a tiered tray but this one is more curved, so it seamlessly goes along with the bathroom corner counter.

I like this look because it uses metal and it’s clear, which is good for any bathroom going for a simple and clean look.

Other kinds of trays in black, or different materials could stand out a bit too much, like a sore thumb.

Overall, I really like this idea!

3. Stacked Containers Under Sink

I love making use of any space under the sink. Using stacked, clear containers like this makes it super easy to organize your things, and find them when needed.

I also really like the idea of a spinning tray in the middle with your essentials, since the tray makes it super simple to grab what you need.

My own bathroom uses a bunch of baskets and containers under the sink just like this idea, and it really helps for small bathroom organization!

4. Baskets & Pull Out Containers

Similar to the last idea, but I really like the addition of a rattan basket at the bottom, and those pull out containers on the right.

The idea also seems to use a stand to create more levels, which is so creative. Once again, maximizing vertical height is key for small bathroom organization!

5. Over The Toilet Storage

Now that we’re done looking at under the sink organization ideas, let’s move to the toilet area for more small bathroom organization ideas!

Using a storage shelf designed to fit above your toilet is a super creative, and fun idea for organization.

It’s perfect for reducing clutter, adding more storage, and gives you more space for your bathroom counter, which is obviously priority haha.

6. Another Creative Storage Idea

This one reminds me more of a ladder storage idea, and I thought to include it since I really like the rustic design and the way they filled the shelves.

For over the toilet storage and organization, I highly recommend using baskets to conceal any objects. This helps keep the bathroom looking clean and tidy.

I personally prefer to hide things in baskets or under the sink, because the lack of clutter really helps with simplicity in the morning, and honestly doesn’t give me a headache like I would if my things were all over the place!

7. Storage Containers for Drawers

If you have any drawers, these storage containers are perfect for splitting up all your things into groups.

I like how these containers can come in a bunch of sizes, so they can fit together like a puzzle piece in your drawer.

This kind of idea is perfect for organization, especially for small bathrooms!

8. Shower Storage Organization

Small bathroom storage solutions like adding a shower caddy organizer is such a good way to keep the space organized.

I personally have a tiered organizer in the corner of our shower, and it helps so much with keeping our shampoos and products off the shower floor.

It’s super simple, barely takes up any space, and is excellent if you’re looking for space saving storage systems!

9. Small Baskets For Organization

Another small bathroom organization idea: making the most of your space with storage bins and vanity drawer dividers under your counter!

This is super easy to do, keeps everything hidden and organized, and still looks aesthetic.

I really like this look!

10. Aesthetic Small Bathroom Storage

Finding bathroom storage ideas that still look good is really hard to find.

I really like this wooden shelf around the toilet area with the rattan storage baskets.

It does its job perfectly, keeps things organized, and still looks really, really good!

11. Over The Door Storage Unit

I love this over door storage rack.

It’s not bulky, or ugly at all (I find the issue is that most bathroom storage organizers are a little off putting)

The whole look is super cute and is an excellent contender for a multi-functional bathroom storage solutions. It holds products, clothes, headbands, and even has space for some nice plant decor.

Definitely consider making use of the space behind your door for your small bathroom!

12. Using Shelves For Storage + Organization

Making use of the wall using over the toilet storage cabinets are quite common, but I love the rattan storage baskets which really help with the aesthetic of the bathroom.

If you need built in bathroom storage that doesn’t ruin the look of your bathroom, any kind of storage baskets and trays with shelves about your toilet are the best for organization!
