It’s Why Not Organize Something Wednesday again.
We don’t have a lot of storage in our bathroom. These 4 drawers and 2 cabinet doors are it. So I needed ways to have storage in the open but also have it look decorative and attractive.
We started by adding 2 shelves over the toilet area. The top shelf originally had towels and washcloths on it, but they have since been moved. The picture on the top shelf is one my mom painted. It’s always been my favorite painting and after bugging her for years, she finally gave it to me. Thanks Mom!
Under the top shelf, I added hooks for my necklaces. I don’t have the patience to untangle my necklaces and I like the decorative touch it adds. I also like all the colors and the way they look hanging there, plus I can find what I want quickly.
On the silver tray, I keep my watchbands. My daughter made these for me.
This egg crate holds some of my necklace pieces, bracelets and charms. The one on the other side holds my post earrings and rings.
I put a piece of screen in this oval frame and attached a ribbon to the back to hang my other earrings from. It hangs on the wall beside my sink.
These boxes hold other bracelets, pins, tie tacks and jewelry my younger kids have given to me. They’re on a shelf above the little table.
I love this little table. It fits perfectly beside the tub and the towels look great on it.
The glass jars hold cotton balls, q-tips and make-up rounds. They sit on a tray I bought at the Dollar Store.
This is the only bar soap we buy and we buy it in bulk. I love displaying it this way.
We hang all our towels by hooks, rather than bars. It looks neater in my home, because no one ever hangs them on the bar correctly.
So what’s your preference? Do you like open storage or do you like everything packed away behind closed doors? Next week I’ll show you the storage behind the doors.
Oh perfect! I have been REALLY wanting to organize my jewelry –currently I have necklaces hanging on my wall, but with push pins. Ha ha. And, my earings are a tangled mess in a jewelry box.
So, you got me thinkging and gave me some great ideas!
Your master bathroom –looks so clean, organized — Fabulous!
Blessings,

I have 1 hook in the bathroom for the towel of the person currently bathing. Then when the towel is done being used, it is hung on a hook on the back of the users bedroom door. This way there are not multiple bath towels in the bathroom to be used for things that they are not supposed to, such as cleaning up potty accidents.
Oh I adore the egg crate idea!
What kind of soap do you buy? I love your bathroom!
I love open storage when it looks as great as yours does! Fabulous! And I love your earring holder. Super cute!
I usually have to have things behind closed doors because I’m not as neat as you. I do like to have towels out folded nicely for the color.
I love the glass jars on the tray.

I love the oval frames in your bathroom. I may have to try that. I’m a new blogger. I plan to do lots of organizing projects on my blog. I hope you’ll visit me! http://becca-homeiswheremystorybegins.blogspot.com/
Wow! Love these ideas! Love the earrings in the frame! 😀
OK your bathroom shots could be in a catalog – so pretty. Love the open storage! If our entire master bathroom wasn’t the size of a single sheet of drywall I’d copy a whole bunch of your ideas. Thanks for sharing!
I love the bath-side table and the display of soap. Great ideas!
WOW, I LOVE your storage ideas. That frame with the screen is just BRILLIANT! ANd the apothocary jars and jar of soap just scream SPA! I’m in love, thanks for sharing!
ohhhh and the side table…SWOOON!
I like how you’ve displayed the bar soaps.
I love the soaps in the glass container. I was going to do that at my mom’s house, I completely forgot I could do it at my own!
Oh, I love this. I was just thinking- my jewelry is out. of. control. You’ve inspired me to organize!
If you’re interested, we have a friday fun finds party and we’d love for you to link to this! 🙂
I love how you’ve used and displayed everything on the open storage. We only have a very small vanity under the sink which holds all the extra things like cleaning supplies and what not. Everything else is open storage in our bath. We use a shelf which has a picture leaned against the wall on top of it with my collection of perfume bottles and the hooks hold our towels after use. Another couple of shelves holds all of beauty accessories, make up and hair sprays and cosmetic bags. Another shelf holds our colognes and perfumes we use.
I can’t wait to get a larger vanity and do away with the shelves as storage and use them only for decorative purposes. That will be happening this summer.
such great ideas! thanks for sharing!
Those are all great ways to store things and so stylish!
Love your bathroom, it’s so well appointed. Thank you for sharing!
