If you are saddled with a small bathroom, consider one or more of these space-enhancing products.
Sink Consoles
Replacing a traditional vanity cabinet with a console will help make a small bathroom appear larger. This Petaluma Single Sink from Pottery Barn features turned legs, a painted white finish, and Carrara marble top.
Storage Totes
Organization is a “must” in the small bathroom. These chunky woven tote baskets from Crate and Barrel, are not only beautiful but practical, as each is accented with gray faux-leather trim.
Space-Saving Shelving
This over-the-toilet shelving unit from Home Styles is a great space-saver for any bath, but especially the small bathroom. The open shelving is designed for small spaces, and the gray powder colored metal frame suits almost any color scheme.
Shelf with Towel Bar
The Dottingham Double Glass Bathroom Shelf, shown here from Allied Brass, not only offers decorative shelf storage, but a towel rack, too—making it ideal for the small bathroom. Crafted of solid brass, it comes in standard or premium hand-polished finishes.
Ceiling Light
If your bathroom is small and dated, dress it up with a new ceiling mounted light fixture. The enhanced overhead illumination will make even a small bathroom appear larger. The Newbury, shown here from School House Electric, features colorful stripes to complement any design.
Storage Cubes
These steel cubes are Italian-designed and feature a rust-resistant, galvanized finish, making them ideal for use in humid environments like bathrooms. Mount them on the wall, as shown, or stack them to create a free-standing storage solution for a small bathroom.
Wall Cabinets
Bathrooms require cabinets that are compact, like this glass-fronted wall cabinet from Elegant Home Fashions’ Madison Avenue collection. At only 7″ deep it is the perfect wall-mounted cabinet for the small bathroom.
Shelf Units
The Rönnskär shelf unit from Ikea takes up very little floor space, making it perfect for the small bathroom. Designed for corners, this shelf makes the most of an often wasted space. Fill the shelves with towels, bathroom essentials and decorative storage baskets.
Shower Caddies
There may be a lot of space going to waste in your shower. Installing floating shelves or recessed storage is one idea for the handy DIYer, but a simple over the shower rack works well, too. This simplehuman stainless steel shower caddy is designed to be more stable than wire models.
Over the Door Storage
If there’s no room in the bathroom for a storage console or shelving unit, store your essentials on the door. This Wildon Home Lynbar over the door basket storage rack is made of woven rattan and a black metal frame that fits over most doors. It is the perfect stylish solution for storing towels or toiletries.
Medicine Cabinets
When it comes to saving space, medicine cabinets are a no-brainer. If you live in an older space, yours might be on the small side. Boost your storage with a framed lit medicine cabinet from Restoration Hardware. An interior double plug can accommodate electrical devices and the tempered glass shelves are adjustable.
