A great bathroom organization idea is by using lazy susan type containers. This makes finding products so much easier since you can just spin it around to find what you need.
I used these in my cabinets so I wouldn't have to dig around to find things that were hidden in the back. I'm obsessed with how easy this made things and how much more organized my bathroom feels.
2. Organize Products By Use
One of my favorite bathroom organization hacks is organizing products by use and category. When organizing my bathroom, I took everything out and planned out with sticky notes where I wanted each type of product to go. This way everything was way easier to find.
I then put all the products together by category and added them to the shelves in the planned space.
3. Clear Dividers in Vanity Drawers

Drawers can become incredibly messy very quickly. By adding a few clear dividers to your vanity drawers, you can keep all your products separated and in one space.

7. Over-the-Toilet Storage
In a bathroom with very little space, it can be difficult to find places to keep all your things. I know as a girl with a lot of products, it can be hard to organize everything when there isn't much space.
Utilizing the space above your toilet is a great way to use space that you normally wouldn't. There is a wide range of organization options for over the toilet so there is definitely something for every space and aesthetic.
8. Hide Feminine Products in Small Woven Container
No one wants to have their feminine products visible in their bathroom, especially if they plan to have guests use the bathroom.
Find cute containers to hide them in while also adding a touch of decor to your bathroom organization. It's a win-win!
9. Store Items Inside Cabinet Door
Unfortunately, hair products and tools can take up a lot of space and also get in the way with the long cords they carry.
A great way to utilize the unused space inside your cabinets is storing hair tools inside the cabinet door. This hanging storage is perfect for the hair essentials!
10. Utilize Wall Space as Storage
To keep products off of your counter space, using the wall space above is a great bathroom organization option.
This mason jar and wood wall mount is a perfect way to add a rustic touch to any bathroom while also keeping this organized and off the counter.
11. Over-the-Toilet Shelving
Over the toilet shelving is another great bathroom organization hack that utilizes unused space. Instead of adding a picture frame of decor item, adding shelves is a functional way to add organization while also adding decor.
You can mix in bathroom products with other accents such as candles or greenery to make it more cohesive with the rest of the bathroom decor.
12. Glass Canisters for Storing Essentials

If you're a makeup junky with a large variety of different products, storing them in a container specific for makeup is a perfect way to keep your products organized and clean.
I used to just throw them in a makeup bag, but it'd take me even longer to get ready because I'd have to dig through to find things. My makeup would also get all over and make my products dirty.
Definitely recommend getting an organization container for your makeup. I have this one and it's amazing!
14. Keep Toilet Paper in a Basket
The worst thing ever is going to the bathroom and then realizing there's no toilet paper. Keeping a few rolls in a cute container above the toilet solves this problem while also adding a cute touch to the toilet area.
I love the way this bathroom tied in the basket with the shelves above the toilet. It all works so well together while also being functional.
15. Use Wicker Baskets for Storage
Using large wicker baskets for bathroom closet organization is a great way to easily hide clutter.
Adding a variety of wicker baskets on different shelves creates a great balance throughout the closet.
