If you're spending too much time in your bathroom trying to find everything from your toothbrush to your hairbrush, it's time to declutter. We all want a clean and tidy bathroom, but sometimes it can be hard to know where to start.

With this in mind, we've come up with a list of over 30 bathroom organization ideas to help you create the bathroom of your dreams. Here are ways to maximize your space and organize your bathroom with budget-friendly solutions in mind.

1. Towel Hooks

A major benefit of using towel hooks is that they don't take up much space, and your towels dry faster than hanging them on a rod because there are no folds in the towel when you hang them up. Install a row of towel hooks to the back of your door to utilize this often unused space.

2. Use Mason Jars For Storage

Mason jars are great for storing small objects such as cotton swabs, makeup, toothbrushes, or other loose items. Another bonus is that they also look great with any minimalist, farmhouse, or traditional bathroom decor.

3. Decant Shower Products

Brightly colored shampoo and conditioner bottles with loud logos can create a lot of visual distractions in a bathroom. To eliminate this issue, try decanting your shower products into matching containers to create a more cohesive look.

4. Use a Label Maker

If you're utilizing jars and bins to keep your bathroom looking clean and clutter-free, then it's best to create labels for each container. Labels will help you find things more easily and let you know where to put your bathroom products when you or guests are finished using them.

5. Roll Washcloths

Rolling your washcloths not only looks neat and tidy but also takes up less space than folding them. Tip a basket on its side and place the rolled washcloths in it to create a piece of visually appealing and functional bathroom decor.

Install floating shelves on your bathroom wall to take advantage of vertical space. This is especially beneficial for small bathrooms with limited counter space to showcase decorative items such as bathroom plants, jewelry boxes, and framed photos.

Add a curtain rod on the other side of your shower designated for hanging bathroom products such as shampoo and conditioner. An additional rod will free up shower space, keep everything organized, and help items dry quickly. Use S-curved hooks with clips on the end so you can attach each product with ease.

8. Use Clear Bins Under Your Sink

Separating your items into clear bins based on category is a great way to maximize the space under your sink. Choose different sized containers based on the items you're storing and make sure they're clear so you can see what's in them.

Purchase dividers for your bathroom drawers and label each part based on the products you'll have in each section. Dividers will help keep your drawers looking decluttered and organized.

If you have a glass shower door instead of a curtain, you can hang a shower caddy to hold your daily shower supplies. Put your loofah, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner on the caddy to avoid having them sprawled across your shower floor.

16. Put a Magnetic Strip in Your Drawers
