Household supplies, medicines and creams tell us what to remove from the bathroom to free up space and use it comfortably.

The video listed what you can remove from the bathroom

1 Stocks 

Of course, it will not be possible to remove all the jars and tubes from the bathroom, especially those products that you use constantly. But it makes sense to conduct an audit and collect in one box everything that was bought with a stock and has not yet been opened. At the same time, you can remove something that is rarely used (for example, once every 2-3 weeks). This applies not only to cosmetics or shower products, but also to large packages of toilet paper and stocks of detergents.

Alternative solution

Household chemicals can be put in the cupboard under the sink in the kitchen, and closed creams, lotions and shower gels in the wardrobe in the bedroom. At the same time, while you are sorting out stocks, get rid of everything overdue and just unnecessary.

2 Medicines and creams

Elevated temperature and humidity significantly reduce the shelf life of medicines and contribute to the development of bacteria in creams. In addition, if you store them in the bathroom, a huge number of jars fills all horizontal surfaces: the washing machine, the rim of the bathtub, the edges of the sink. It is inconvenient and not very aesthetically pleasing.

Alternative solution

It makes sense to put the medicines in the first-aid kit in another room, and the creams in the refrigerator. If you have a separate beauty corner in your apartment, you can buy a miniature table refrigerator specially for creams and serums.

3 Laundry basket

It is logical to keep a laundry basket in the bathroom if a place is allocated for it and no one stumbles over it. But in small bathrooms it is almost impossible.

Alternative solution

A beautiful wicker laundry basket with a lid will look organically in an interior where there are wooden surfaces. A light fabric box is suitable for a minimalist or Scandinavian bedroom. If there is a large wardrobe in the room, the laundry basket can be put in it. At the same time, this will solve the problem with the things that you take off before going to bed and throw on a chair, since it's lazy to go to the bathroom with them.

4 Mop and bucket

A mop, a cleaning bucket and rags are often kept in the bathroom. If the room is small, then most likely it was not possible to put a closet in it to store all this. As a result, cleaning accessories clutter up the room and generally interfere, as well as spoil the impression of the interior.

Alternative solution

Special utility cabinets are sold in stores. They are usually quite narrow, so they will fit, for example, into a corridor, a balcony or an entrance hall. At the same time, a vertical vacuum cleaner and all detergents will fit in such a locker.

5 Open shelving

In many small bathrooms you can find a small open shelving. It seems that this is a convenient solution for a small space, but in practice it will constantly be touched, and objects will fall from open shelves. In addition, all the things on this rack will have to be wiped at least once a week, since dust sticks to them after the moisture has settled on them.

Alternative solution

If it is essential for you to have such a storage system, take a closer look at high and maximally narrow models up to 30-40 cm deep. Another option is a closet that is attached to the washing machine. And, of course, suspended closed lockers on free walls: for example, above the toilet. Each of these boxes can be assigned to the storage of a certain category of items  so there will be no confusion.
