Make the Most of Small Bathrooms with Custom Vanities

There never seems to be enough storage space in bathrooms and if you have a small bathroom this problem may be even worse. All the things you have to keep in your bathroom for skin, hair, toilet paper, cleaning products all take up a lot of space. Maximizing the space in your small bathroom through a custom built vanity can make a huge impact. 

 

A custom built vanity makes a huge impact in storage by maximizing the vertical storage and other storage solutions. Awkward corners, narrow spaces and other unique spaces can be best maximized with a custom cabinetry option. Custom vanities are great for storage because they also take into consideration your needs and allow for custom built storage solutions. 

Custom open shelving is another great option for small spaces. Open shelving behind the toilet is a great solution to add more storage space. Homeowners also add shelving near the sink, about the towel rack and in really tight space we have even seen shelving about the door for long term storage. Open shelves are also great in bathrooms with pedestal sinks to add storage. Open shelving is a great design feature as well. These beautiful shelves can add style to a small space without taking up precious counter space. 

If possible you may want to look into a recessed built in option. A custom built in cabinet that is set into the wall can add extra storage without taking up any of the floor space. Recessed storage includes options like medicine cabinets, drawers, shelves. This is a less conventional option but can be a beautiful solution to a tiny space.

Custom cabinetry may seem like a big investment but in a small space it really is about making the most out of your space. Off the shelf cabinets don’t account for knocks and crannies in your bathroom that may really make a big impact in your bathroom storage. When you build a custom vanity it will maximize the space available even if the space is not a conventional cabinet measurement but cabinets from big box stores come in standard sizes only. 

Beyond custom cabinetry there are some other ways to maximize your bathroom space. Adding towel racks to the back of your bathroom door is one way to add extra storage to the space you have. These towel racks are a great place to store all your fresh towels, reserving the shower door towel bar or hooks for used towels. Glass shower doors are great for giving the illusion of a larger space. Glass shower doors extend the room and give you more light. Adding a larger mirror about the vanity can also add more light to the room and make the room feel larger. Finally, changing out light fixtures and light bulbs can make a big impact. 

If you have a small bathroom you are aware that storage space is a big issue. Custom cabinets truly are a great way to add storage to your space and make the most of every inch.
