DIY Small Bathroom Organization Ideas.
We are overhauling a lot of rooms in our home in an effort to have things be more organized and tidy looking. One room in particular that I’ve been searching for ideas for is our tiny master bathroom (actually, all our bathrooms are small)! There’s not a lot of room and not a lot of storage. So I’ve been looking on Pinterest for some DIY Small Bathroom Organizing Ideas and thought I’d share a few with you today!

Here are some great small bathroom organizing ideas to help you maximize storage in your bathroom!
14 Small Bathroom Organizing Ideas
Before you get started, here are some bathroom organization tips to help:
- Be creative. For storage, consider, baskets, bins, even a nice decorative bucket. Put your storage on the wall, in the cabinets, on shelves, on the back of the bathroom door, or on the back of the bathroom vanity’s door.
- Keep storage accessible. If you want to get your small bathroom organized and keep it that way, make sure your storage solutions are in places you can easily access so you can use them daily.
- Out of sight is out of mind. Because your bathroom is small, it’ll look best with the least amount of visual clutter possible. So try to keep obviously visible storage solutions at a minimum. Or if you can’t put your storage behind a door/in a cabinet, consider finding storage that is the same color as your bathroom walls, or the same color as the surface its sitting on.
1. Floating Bathroom Shelves
I’m pretty sure we’re going to install some sort of shelves to utilize the vertical space. I like these floating shelves from 320 Sycamore. You can find these shelves on Amazon.
2. Under Sink Bin Organization
Organizing with plastic storage boxes like this from Creating Mary’s Home keeps the under sink area nice a tidy! You can find these plastic storage boxes on Amazon or even at the dollar store.
3. Under Sink Lazy Susan
Using a Lazy Susan for small bathroom organization in a cabinet is so clever! Check out how Mini Manor Blog organized under her sink. I also found a Lazy Susan with mesh baskets that might work even better on Amazon.
4. Hair Dryer Holder
I actually just bought one of these hair dryer holders to help organize a small bathroom in our home and it works great! This hair dryer organization idea is from A Bowl Full of Lemons.
5. Over Toilet Shelf and Bar
I like this shelf, towel-bar combo from The Butlers. It looks elegant, but also is very functional!
6. Bathroom Mason Jar Organizer
Use your small bathroom’s wall space well with this DIY Mason jar organizer from DIY Playbook.
7. Interior Door Storage
I love this idea to use the back/inside of cabinet doors for storage from BHG. I found a similar cabinet organizer on Amazon.
8. DIY Under Cabinet Storage System
I also really like this custom DIY under cabinet storage system because the pipes in one of our bathrooms is set up strangely. This clever DIY is from Pretty Handy Girl featuring Pink Toes and Power Tools. I found a two tier sliding shelf on Amazon that would work great with this bathroom organizer system.
9. Wall Mounted Baskets
Wall mounted wicker baskets would also be a great storage idea (plus they look awesome)! This smart organization solution is from Simply DIY 2.
10. Hanging Wire Baskets
I also love the idea of hanging wire baskets on the wall like these from A Beautiful Mess. I found some similar wire baskets on Amazon.
11. DIY Bathroom Mason Jar Holders
Using small painted Mason jars to hold little bathroom items like cotton is such a cute idea! This great DIY is by Mason Jar Crafts. You could also apply the steps in my marble storage jars DIY to make your own small painted Mason jars.
12. Hair Tool Storage Cabinet
Hair tools and accessories can take over a small space! This hair tool organizer cabinet from The Idea Room is pretty much genius!
13. Clear Containers
The Creativity Exchange has a stunning idea where you take clear plastic containers and label them. It looks stylish and elegant!
14. Make-Up Magnet Board
Get all your make-up easy to see and organized once and for all. Laura Thoughts created this brilliant Make-Up Magnet Board Idea!

We have a teeny tiny master bathroom too! Thanks for sharing some great ideas!
My favorites are the numbered baskets and the ball jar storage.
Everyone of those ideas are good! I am in an especially organizing mood, thank you for sharing 🙂
Great ideas, my favorites are the lazy susan, (brilliant!) and the baskety window boxes, just because they are so pretty!
Yes, great ideas. My bathroom is the least organized place in the house. Everything is just in a heap under the counter usually.
Oh so many great ideas:) Thank you! I have one of those wire magazine holders that I haven’t used! I am going to copy that idea! Enjoy your day dear friend, BIG HUGS!
Lots of great ideas – thanks for sharing them with us.
I used to be more organized – not sure what happened.
we have tiny bathrooms too. The one downstairs is actually the bigger one. Thanks for the cute ideas. We have just listed our home. Moving to something tiny. I still have so much to organize.
Great ideas. We have tiny bathrooms also. I like the door bins and wish the picture showed how they were attached. If we stay here much longer, I am going to try some of these ideas. Thanks!
We have two bathrooms and both are small. Funny you should show the bathroom from 320 Sycamore (first photo)…when I re-did our hallway bath, this was my inspiration photo! I have the three floating shelves above the toilet, though they’re not as deep as the shelves that 320 Sycamore installed. Mine won’t hold square baskets…unless they were long and narrow. I like the idea of a Lazy Susan underneath the kitchen sink.
That bathroom had lots of good ideas but think that one is even bigger than any of ours (even though it’s considered “small”). I think I’m going to do the shelves, but I’m not sure how deep I can make them. If they’re not deep enough to hold more than decorative stuff, then I don’t think that’s a good solution for me. Our vanity is shallow and doesn’t offer a lot of storage. I don’t really like those over the toilet furniture pieces, but maybe a cute cabinet might work. I don’t know…I also have to figure something out for our closet!
Thanks for the shout out! These are all awesome ideas. 🙂
Lots of great ideas! I like the floating shelves too, and the use of wire baskets!
Thanks for pulling this together for us!
I’m in the process of organizing our bathroom and I’ve seen some of these on Pinterest, but some are new to me and super creative! As always, thanks Manuela! I’ve gotten some great ideas from this post.
Good ideas! We found that our under-sink cabinet got cluttered and dirty no matter what we did, so when we renovated we got a pedestal sink and open shelves over the toilet. It is much easier to clean shelves than a cabinet, and you are motivated to keep them neat because you can see everything. We store things on the shelves in baskets and in glass jars–reused jars from various foods are ideal for swabs, cough drops, bandaids, razors, etc. and you don’t have to label them to be able to find things!
