Built-In Bathroom Storage Solution
So little space, so much to store -- it's a common problem in many baths. Wimpy, hip-high vanities offer limited storage. As long as you're claiming a wall, why not reach for the sky? A floor-to-ceiling cabinetry unit -- built-in vanity, hutchlike drawers, and tall cupboards -- puts everything from towels to toothpaste in one space and helps the whole room breathe easier.
The Big Picture: Lots of Cabinets
Building a floor-to-ceiling storage and sink unit gives you more space, creating a home for items you formerly kept in a hall linen closet or on visually confining shelves above the toilet or in the corner. Check kitchen cabinet catalogs for stock pieces you can combine and arrange into the bathroom storage unit you've always dreamed of.
Budgeting for Bath and Kitchen Products
Think ergonomics when you design your floor-to-ceiling storage. Allocate drawers just above the countertop for small essentials you use every day. Designate shelves installed between your head and waist height for hair care and other grooming products. A cushioned bench, handy for applying after-bath lotion, adds potential underseat storage.
Glass-door upper cabinets let you control what to display and what to disguise. In this example, folds of sheer fabric behind the glass hide clutter. For more camouflage, hang opaque fabric panels on small interior curtain rods. To showcase fine fragrances or treasured collectibles, uncover glass for the effect of a bathroom curio.
