Is your bathroom unorganized and cluttered? What can what we can do to change the problem? Stand back and look for wasted space corners along with the cupboards. There are ways to rearrange things and organize them to give you more room and space as well.
What do you have under that sink?
Do you have a lot of empty space down there? Lets try adding a shelf to fill it up and not have to stack everything on top of each other. Take some measurements and decide just how high you need the space to be on the bottom for cleaning supplies or maybe that package of toilet paper you bought that was on sale. Mark a spot with a marker on all four corners where you want to put a top shelf. Places like B+Q even Home Depot has different size shelving and colors too. Take your measurements with you and some places will even cut it for you so all you have to do is mount it when returning home. Tell the salesperson what your trying to do and they can recommend the mount supplies you’ll need. Know how to us a drill, oh that’s ok if you don’t a screw driver will work just as good only it is harder to do. Take a small nail and make a hole where you want to mount the shelving units. Using the drill or screwdriver install, the mounting brackets and lay down your new shelf on top of it. Now that wasted space has a shelf in it and you can put the small items on it towards the top.
Take a look at your nearest hardware or department store usually Rubbermaid has a lot of ideas to fill in the area under your sink. Get some small drawers and stack them in there on one side; you can put your soaps and small items in them even your extra wash cloths and hand towels will fit in these drawers. Rubbermaid also makes shelves that stack on top of each other that you can put in this space. You can make space to store nice towels and other bathroom accessories. Rubbermaid is easy to clean just fill up the tub or take outside and use the garden hose on them. Warm soapy water and a hose to rinse will do a great job and the mess is all outside.
How about the counter space around your sink it can be organized to by just placing a basket in one corner and laying that lose hair brush with the comb in it. You can place your room deodorizer and liquid hand soap in it too. Everything is all in one corner now and all you have to do is reach for it without going through everything to find them.
Organizing your tub and shower area is a breeze as well. Rubbermaid also makes many different things you can put in them to hold that bar of soap and hair shampoo and conditioner. Hang a shower caddy over you showerhead and put you razor along with the shaving cream, shampoo and conditioner, shower gel maybe can be put there too. This keeps them in a handy to reach area and off the shower floor of off the ledge of your tub. Your bar soap can dry easier with the holes letting air to it so the bar isn’t lying in water and wasting it.
You can also get corner shelves that have suction cups to stick on the wall in the corners. These are nice and more places to put things. Hang a shower mirror in the shower to make it easy for that man of yours to shave and shower all the same time.
Your sink is all organized with more space and you can find everything under there now. You can take a shower or bath without having to worry of slipping on the soap when you get in or out. Enjoy your new space and have fun with your new project.

Organizing your Bathroom Accessories
December 26th, 2009London Builders: Wall Mounted Bathroom Equipment. Part One
December 25th, 2009Not only ceiling can be suspended, and not only one of the seven wonders of the world such as hanging gardens of Babylon. At the beginning of 80′s history of development of the bathroom equipment was marked by an appearance of suspended, or wall hung, equipment, with closet basins as pioneers. “Suspended miracle” became an alternative to floor-standing bathroom equipment. Don’t think that this innovation emerged as a result of designers’ embellishment and oddity. This fashion was formed under the influence of concrete and totally prosaic needs of hygiene, comfort and economy.
The first examples of the type appeared in public water closets, where hygienic demands were extremely strict. In ten years, in 90′s wall hung bathroom suits such as closet basins, urinals, bidets, washbasins successfully moved to private bathroom units and increased number in bathroom upgrades including bathroom furniture and bathroom accessories and new bathroom suites. Buying a new house or remodeling your existing one, the bathroom is the place to start with since the bathroom is the most frequent room to use by every member of your family. But before starting your bathroom renovation adventure it is important to consider your bathroom units in terms of usability and place not mentioning the design. If you want to break away from traditional bathroom styles and add a fresh look of elegance to your new bathroom have a look at wall mounted bathroom units models.
Every housewife knows that the most hard-to-reach and difficult-to-clean places are the areas around and under the bathroom equipment. Wall mounted bathroom units allow to clean up the area more quickly and effectively.
Bathroom design becomes, owing to the wall hung equipment, more exquisite, refined and airy. You must have managed to look through the illustrations. Such bathrooms look quite unusual, they are distinguished by some airiness and lightness, “hovering” effect. Owing to lack of equipment on the floor, the place looks more spacious. The tile is distinguished, its pattern is clearly visible on the floor and the walls. You will not see any connections, corrodible pipes or lock valves. They are hidden behind the tile, at the same time forming additional useful bathroom space. Sink drainage siphon is covered by a half-column or a half-pedestal, concealing piping and water drain. In case siphon is uncovered, it does not look like itself, but becomes a “modern technologies alloy” created by designers. Light and refined, it is in fact a continuation of the sink. That is the example of totally coordinated design. Known manufacturers usually offer ready-made models within the collection: the sink is offered together with a siphon and a mixer tap.
In the offered collections it is often possible to observe wall hung closet basin model with a built-in flash tank and a model with an external tank. Flash tanks usually have two regimes of water drain. On pressing one button half tank volume is spent – 3 liters, thus saving large quantity of the consumed water. On pressing the other button the full tank volume is spent – 6 or 9 liters.
