Promising review: "I have a ridiculously small bathroom and a super small vanity. After too many instances of my dryer and straightener falling to the floor, I went searching for an option to get them off the non-existent counter and onto the towel holder next to my sink. This product has done the trick — it helps me keep my counter space organized and provides me with a great, heat-resistant holder to place them in while I'm working through my hair. Highly recommend!" —Amazon Customer

Choose a shower curtain with mesh pockets to keep your shower/tub clutter-free.

This shower curtain measures 70" × 72"!

Promising review: "This liner may be the most useful product I've ever purchased! It allows you to organize all your various bath products in conveniently sized mesh pockets. The pockets are strong enough to hold full shampoo and conditioner bottles without tearing away from the liner. No more worries about cluttered edges causing things fall off the sides of the bathtub. No more nasty soap scum from bars of soap resting on the edge of the tub. No more rust circles from cans of shaving cream. It's brilliant!" —G. Allen

Keep your toothbrushes and toothpaste neat and dry in an adorable elephant holder that drains through the trunk.

Promising review: "My search for a functional toothbrush holder (that doesn't get gross from collected water) is FINALLY OVER! It's also super cute and looks great on my sink. While it is plastic and lightweight, it's actually quite durable and sturdy. It doesn't tip over when my kids fumble to put their toothbrushes in it. Easy to clean, too, just stick a cotton swab in the spout and swab it around. So glad I found this." —DB Mahan

Give every bathroom essential its own place in an over-door organizer.

Promising review: "This is a terrific item for someone like myself who lives in a small apartment, has limited storage, and has lots of cosmetic and bathroom-type items to store. Each pocket has a separation so that you can actually separate items in the same pocket if you wish. I hung it over my bathroom door, although I imagine it could function in a bedroom for socks, etc., and it has made a world of difference in getting things off the counter, displaying an extra roll of toilet paper for guests, etc. Five stars!" —Kiri Corr

Attach a storage cabinet behind the door to permanently solve your small bathroom problems.

Attach a storage cabinet behind the door to permanently solve your small bathroom problems.

Promising review: "This is a must-have for any small space. My bathroom has no medicine cabinet, just a mirror, and is pretty small, so storage is a huge deal. My girlfriend came across this item, so I figured I would give it a shot. I know it states it needs a two-person install, but I put this together and hung it in about an hour by myself with very minimal effort. This fits so much stuff, it really is amazing, and it does not impede any operation of the door. I can't fully explain how much I recommend this. I'm about to order the mirror version for my bedroom for colognes and little knick-knacks to declutter the countertops." —happy shaver

Provide an extra roll and some reading material for guests (and yourself) with a TP stand.

Promising review: "This is a great toilet paper stand. I love that it is able to hold two rolls at once. We've had it for a year and have not run out of paper since. It is a little wobbly without any magazines etc., in the bottom, but a couple of magazines, and it's fairly stable. It can hold four or more magazines. We have a small bathroom, and it doesn't take up much room. It looks great and is functional. I am very pleased with this purchase." —Amanda

Promising review: "Absolutely love these organizer boxes. I use them in my bathroom drawers as I dislike those clear plastic trays you normally see. Those get a cloudy look about them over time, whereas these stay nice and clean looking. I also like how easy it is to arrange the various sizes in a puzzle-like fashion to get the right combination for your drawer. I even have one sitting on my counter for miscellaneous items (hair ties, etc), and it looks great." —M. Marcott
