Under sink bathroom storage ideas

Organizing the space under the bathroom sink can be a challenge. Maybe you have a large washstand, but the drawer is a mess, or maybe you have a wall-hung sink with no storage at all. Whatever your issue, there are wallet-friendly and easy ways to make your under-the-sink storage efficient and nice looking.

How do I maximize storage under my sink?

Shelves don’t offer the same overview as drawers, but if you sort your things into stackable and transparent containers, you’ll always find what you’re looking for. A lazy Susan is perfect for easy access to the bottles and jars that are part of your care routine.

Get your bathroom drawers into shape

A closed washstand with organized insides is a great way to create a calm bathroom. Sort items into interior organizers according to category or family member and you’ll enjoy a sense of tranquillity every time you open the drawer(s). LED lighting with a sensor makes it even easier to find what you need.

Kick-start your bathroom organization with small changes

Maintaining order is easier when every item has its home. Smaller boxes, baskets and bowls are excellent helpers when it comes to organizing tinier things that tend to end up all over your bathroom. Choose your favourite style and material, whether plastic, glass, bamboo, cork or natural fibres.

Choose open or closed under-the-sink storage — or mix it up

Do you want easy access to your bathroom necessities? Two triangular shelving units under the sink offer an instant solution. Do you prefer a sleeker look with closed storage, but want to display your fanciest care products? Go for a combo of drawers and shelves, available in different styles and materials.
