6 Tips for Organizing Storage in the Bathroom Without Visual Clutter

Perfect order in the bathroom is not a myth but an achievable reality. According to Vastu expert Olga Kuleshova, the biggest problem in modern bathrooms is the clutter on shelves filled with personal care products. Let's explore together how to avoid such chaos and store items beautifully in the bathroom.

Gathering and Sorting

All bottles, shampoos, body washes, oils, and other items should be gathered in one place and sorted into categories.

Elimination of Unnecessary Items

When chaos reigns on the bathroom shelf, it's usually because not all contents look fresh or have current expiration dates.

You should dispose of items you no longer use or don't want to use anymore so they don't take up extra space.

Classification

Women's, men's, and children's products should be placed in separate organizers. Special attention should be given to women's cosmetics: all face, body, and hair care items must be stored in different containers. Daily-use products can be placed in prominent spots.

It's recommended to use dividers in drawers and on shelves for small items.

Creating Visual Aesthetics

To save space in the bathroom and reduce visual clutter, it's better to buy organizers with lids or wicker baskets.

Matching Containers, Towels, and Bottles by Color

You can achieve perfect aesthetics in the bathroom by sorting shelf contents according to color. This could involve 1–2 pastel tones (including those that match the wall color).

Using a consistent palette also applies to towels — each family member should have their own tone or range of tones.

It's ideal if personal care products come from the same brand or at least are in bottles of the same color.

Cotton swabs and bath salts can be stored in glass containers — they look more elegant than plastic ones.

Choosing Curtains

Picking the right curtain for the bathroom is also important. The safest and most eco-friendly options are cotton fabrics with water-repellent coating.
